FREE Word ADDiction Worksheet and Team Game, (2018-08-15 07:30:24)
|
“This handy “Word ADDiction” print-and-teach worksheet was built to help fill all available class time. The handout can be used as an in-class or homework assignment, substitute teacher materials, or game/contest sheet. A completed example is also included for teacher and student reference.
As a game, place students in teams of two or three and give one sheet to each team. Then, announce the number you have chosen (I just pick a number between 50 and 100, but you could use a random number generator app to build more game show-style drama) and the amount of time (anywhere from 5 to 12 minutes) you’re giving teams to work on their answers. You could announce that the team with the highest number of words will win the sole prize or, even better, announce that any team finding more than, say, six words that meet the target number will win an extra credit point/a piece of candy/homework pass/whatever.”

4 Fake Sites to Teach Students Website Evaluation. (2018-08-15 07:16:43)
|
“Students can use Google to quickly find millions of websites matching their search request, but are they able to determine which sites actually contain information that is accurate, unbiased, up to date, and written by someone with authority? One step in helping our students identify quality information online is to introduce them to the exact opposite… websites that pretend to be truthful but actually are full of intentionally incorrect information.” |

Reading Passages That Will Have Your Students Begging for More! (2018-08-14 07:34:19)
|
“There are lots of kids who are desperate for something to read that they can relate to. I feel like there are many great fiction books, but it seems a lot of students zone out when they read nonfiction. We have kids in our class who are huge sports fans, but I’ve noticed there’s a shortage of high-quality, nonfiction reading material about sports. The following three images show an example one set of paired texts written on a range of reading levels. Click any of these three images to download a free sample that best suits your needs, or grab them all so you can differentiate!” |

What to do in the middle of your lesson when a student refuses to work. (2018-08-13 07:09:18)
|
“A student’s refusal to work is not always the result of a poorly planned or disengaging lesson, or the failure of the teacher to establish rapport. I know this directly contradicts what a lot of experts believe, but I don’t think student disengagement is a problem that can be 100% solved for every student if the teacher just works hard enough.
