Thanks for reading and for the kind words Janice. Sounds like your students are lucky to have someone so willing to do what’s best for their learning…

Thanks, Janice! At your suggestion, we will definitely share with more educators and teachers. Thanks!

(another Potterhead here!) Prior to reading your post, I’ve already been a big believer that children should learn through experience. I found that they are able to learn more quickly and retain more learnings afterwards. This post gave me new and better ideas on how best to conduct a class. I liked the “better be the guide on the side than a sage on the stage” quote and letting kids lead the class. Teachers should learn how to best facilitate the lesson and give the children more room to learn things on their own. This article should really be shared to all educators out there!

Debbie,

Haven’t followed the series **gasp**?! 🙂 Thanks for reading and so glad John’s wisdom resonated with you….now go pick up a copy of HP. Do you consider yourself a Lord of the Rings fan, out of curiosity? So many people who didn’t read Potter love the Rings, so I always like to ask!

Thanks Debbie. You’d do fine at Hogwarts – you’re an excellent teacher!

Always looking for pointers and even though I haven’t followed the series, you made it interesting!

Thank you Ashley. I bet you’ll think about the teaching a little more this time through…

Thanks for the refreshing perspective and sound advice in this post, John! I’m off to reread HP for the millionth time now 😉
