I agree with lindsay in the early post and with molly. However there is a tikme where observing is not learning. I thought I learned best with a hands on task. However, in music sometimes you can not teach only hands on. So a happy mix of hands on observing, and trail and error is a well balanced learning. It is kind of what we talk this semister in MUS 110 with it is best to have almost equal listening, composing and performing experiences. Similar thoughts.

I think it's incredibly important to make sure that you are doing your best to reach all of your students needs, which means your going to have to figure out how to "tap" into them and see what makes them tick. In teaching blocks I've done, I've really stressed on making sure that there is more then one way to do the same idea. For example, maybe your wanting to teach a kids a melody to sing. I would start by putting it on the board, which appeals to visual learners. Then while singing it, I would use hand symbols, which appeals to kinestic learners, etc. It's all about paying attention and never ceasing to "cease the moment" and reinforce ideas in numerous ways.
