Thank you for the videos Mr. Buxton! I loved that in the first part of the video it said don't just have the students memorize the words. Develop a curiosity for words. I totally agree with that. It's just like in math. Don't just memorize the rules but also understand why and really understand everything.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you Jordan! My mom said that when she was in school, they used to give her 20 pound books full of vocabulary words and definition (basically a dictionary), that they had to memorize! I don't know about you guys, but I like this method better! And thank you for the videos, too! I can't wait to start using membean, it sounds really interesting!

ReplyDeleteI have already started to use membean and it is really useful. It gives you a lot of ways to study the words, and the words are really hard to forget. It is a great system!
ReplyDeleteI should start using this website! It might help me dreaming in english.
ReplyDeleteI learnt that If there is only ethos its not persuasive and if there is too many pathos its hard to trust and too many logos is boring. I think It should be mixture of that but mostly logos because the emotion stays for certain period of time, when it comes to reality, all those emotions are useless.
