Teaching and Charlotte's Web

I'm visiting my folks this week, and I saw my three-year-old cousin Kayden last night. He had just seen Charlotte's Web, which he liked very much; he particularly liked the fact that Charlotte "drank flies' blood", a fact which he repeated many times during the evening. :)

In thinking about ways to approach my next teaching gig more cleverly, I am intrigued by this method:

I don't think I'm clever enough (or brave enough) yet to put it into practice, however. I do think I'm going to start asking multiple choice questions at the beginning of each class, however, as a review.
