Martial Arts Program Project/Worksheet Questions?

I would never like to see a worksheet, much less a short-answer worksheet, about attitudes or values. These things are best taught by example, by storytelling, by what-if scenarios or by group discussion with topics brought up by the students. If abstract words are to acquire real-life significance, they can't just be filled in on a multiple-choice worksheet (what James Holt used to call "the blip of the blop" or "blip blopths").

The best martial arts class I ever observed always began with a discussion session. The sensei would say, "First we warm up our minds, then our bodies." The philosophy of aikido permeated every aspect of the teaching and learning. He explained to the parents that teaching and learning are reciprocal. "If they didn't learn it, I can't claim to have taught it." And he emphasized that slow, steady learning is much better than fast learning that hits a plateau and stays there.
