Teaching by the book is not teaching. It's just talking.

   Yes, it is easyer to read out of a book instead of listening to the teacher talk on and on and repeat there selves over and over agin about the same thing they just said ten minutes ago. And when when the teachers do babble on kids just get board and fall asleep. but then it is a good thing because kids arnt going to learn anything by reading the book, about 76% of the kids that read when they are suppost to but then theres that other percent of kids who read half then stop or just dont even do it.  so yeah i think that reading out of the book is not teaching. yes we do obsorg things when we do read but we also need examples and things to go with it not, "hey read this page and it will explane how to do this''. no dont think so. i would like to see fun things going on with the reading i want to see the teachers acully try, mabey putt power points along with the reading and movies that resemble what we are learning. Mabey if teachers try these things then kids of all grade will get there grade up and pay attention alot more, and wont think its just another boring part of the day, and think this is worth my time.in conclution this is why i agree with teaching by the book is not teaching.
