This is a great teaching method for all ages. I did student teaching today for 2nd graders and their attention spans are short! I watched the teacher use games effectively to keep them entertained with the learning. The professor used a form of the popular game "duck duck goose" in a musical version to teach them instruments. It was pretty neat. -Brittney Roberts
