Fires Chapter 10

The final chapter of Fires in the Bathroom, Chapter 10 was about reaching out to students outside of the classroom. Teachers can do this by connecting material to real world events, giving students opportunities for internships, and bringing learning outside the classroom.
I thought the idea about bringing learning outside of the classroom was awesome. It is easy to see how teachers could do this for math and science classes but there are also many ways for history teachers (something I hope to be someday!) to do the same. This might include bringing students to historic landmarks, taking them to medieval festivals, living history villages and so much more. I think activities like this cater to almost all of the eight intelligences and make learning even better and more exciting!
