It is really important when one introduces a new concept that learners see visuals. It help incorporates the knowledge in a fun and creative way.

I love showing mind maps to learners so they can see the key concepts and absorb the most important information.

Adding extra reading material for learners can ignite some fire for exploring and learning more. When learners are expose to easy and friendly resources, the sky is the limit.

Eating with a knife and fork and realizing its part of our metal family. Bringing work home and making it practical. I like to send learners home and ask to list at least 5 metals they had in contact during the day at home. It makes a learner think a bit further.

Learners need to understand the properties of metal so that they can link the usage to the type of metal. For example it doesn't help you make a chair out of gold, because gold is a soft and expensive metal.
