  7. What Philosophy Would We Use?? We would use the philosophy of Progressivism. The reason we chose this philosophy is because you are not lecturing the students in class. Instead, you can take the students on fun field trips and do in class hands on activities/ experiments. It can really help the students learn because you are relating what you are learning in the classroom to a lab or activity that they can see and do. For this reason, we pick progressivism as our philosophy of teaching.
