| TPRS |
Why the change? I hope to utilize TPRS (Total Physical Response Storytelling) in my Spanish class to get the kids to actively play a role in forming brain-body movement connections. Associating words and phrases with actions and images should help my students feel more connected to the content which should in turn keep them actively engaged in the material.
