Week 2
This year I started using post-it note activities in my classes. The kids love it. It enables me to do more engaging small group activities. It also allows me a fun way of pre-assessment as I do it oftentimes before the introduction of a new topic or unit. I can assess what they remember without simply asking questions or assigning ordinary problems.

This is something that I am going to try to incorporate more often.
ReplyDeleteI really like it. The students do as well. They feel their input matters. They starts engaging conversations because of their input. I actually have to keep them in line because depending upon the subject they will talk the entire class!!
ReplyDeleteLove IT!!! One thing I will be doing tomorrow is the squiggle, one student draws it and then given the topic you must create the pic and write off of it,we also use lots of folder games.
