There are threee domains of educational activities led by Benjamin Bloom during 1956. The first domain is called cognitive which means mental skills(knowledge). Affective meaning growh in feelings or emotional areas (attitude); is the second one. Lastly, psychomotor which means manual or physical skills. A committe of colleges was also led by him.
There are two other versions discussed by Simpson in 1972. Dave's (1975) Imitation which observes the behavioral pattern by copying someone else. When manipulating you are able to perform certain actions. Precision is when you make something more exact. Articulation is when you coordinate a series of actions. Naturalization is having a natural high level of performance. Harrow's (1972): Reflex movements are reactions not learned. Fundamental movements are basic movements. Perceotion is a stimuli. Physical abilities is a stamina such as strangth. Skilled movements are learned movements. No discursive communication is an effective body language.

We did exercises that made us open our brains and focus on the real world. Now that were seniors in high school, it isn't the time to be fooling around. Being young adults means that we have to prepare ourself for our future. Having a future means having a life.

Then the following person continues, and everyone has to remember the previous things.

Not everyone can easily become a teacher. Before you become a teacher, you have to be a high school graduate and have a degree in college. What is a teacher? Well a teacher is a symbol of learning. They are the leader of learners and are a miracle to education. Teachers teach everywhere around the world. Although, they mostly teach students at public or private schools. Some teachers can teach at home. Most teachers teach during the day. In school there are certain times depending on the type of school and the type of grade level.
