Here is the following link and fell free to view the video:
Alright, I watched this video and at first I thought it was going to be a real boring video seeing that some classes give out boring lectures. But wait, this video was real cool. I totally agree with this Tulley guy, kids do learn ten times better with hands on activities. Also to let the kids be able to learn from mistakes are good too. It keeps their mind of what to do better for the next time they work on something. Which eventually these kids become stronger when a bigger problem in the future comes along, they can overcome it.
In my childhood, I did a lot of hand on activities to. Like when I was in early elementary, we got to play with all kinds of objects and other things. When kids get their hands on everything they get to learn what colors, shapes and even their ABCs. When I got into middle school there was tech. ed. classes like wood shop, computer tech, and so on. I took wood shop class and I ended up making a swinging chair, bench and a shelf with a mirror in it. Yea, it took a lot of time and effort but I eventually got it done. I did make mistakes throughout the process, but everyone makes mistakes. Like Tulley says throughout life, you will make mistakes and they are ok to make mistakes. And in the video, he tells the kids that it is ok to make mistakes and we get better from what we do wrong to make it right.
While growing up, I got a lot of experience simply because I was always outside, and I love outside work. So of course I got my hands on to whatever I could. From building a swing set to making a playground, which I had to do for community service for my church. But now, we see kids playing on it all the time, so all the hands- on experiences turned out be a very successful at the end. Dang, how would you ever figure that a little girl turned out to be a young woman who can build a playground with other young adult. So I understand what Tulley’s point to children of trying to get them to work on big projects for when they get older, who knows they could build a playground too.
The point is you are able to accomplish anything you want longs you put your mind to it, even if you make mistakes, screw- up and think you can’t do it. That means take a break, then come back and see how you can do it better. Tulley makes it clear himself too, he sees that working on it till it’s done makes a better attitude and makes you stronger for what you have become and what you have accomplished.
