Indirect vs Direct Lesson Plan

In class the last few days we have been going over the differences between Direct Lesson Plans and Indirect Lesson Plans. I really enjoyed doing Direct Lesson Plans but I know that this type of teaching does not let the students reach a higher level of thinking, but Indirect teaching does.
I really like the presentations that we have been doing because we are learning about Indirect Lesson Plans but we are learning by teaching through this method also.
Me and my partner Ashley had to give our presentation last Friday. We used the balloon popper on the Smart Board to have our classmates decide which words went along with Indirect or Direct instruction. Im really excited to be learning more about Indirect teaching because I love when the students are hands on and by doing this type of lesson the students get an opportunity to do this.
