What advice would you give to teachers who want to try this in their classrooms?There are definitely a few key points to make sure this activity runs smoothly. To ensure success:
- Show the video People React to Being Called Beautiful beforehand, and discuss how sometimes people don’t see themselves the way others see them.
- Preview the video to determine if it would be appropriate for the age group you teach.
- Make sure your students feel comfortable in your class and there’s a level of trust already established.
- Have a relaxed environment with music, let them sit on desks, talk to one another, etc. However, at the the time of reveal, everyone pays attention and is respectful.
- Only allow 3-4 people allowed up to write at a time, otherwise it’s overwhelming.
- Have two “hot seat chairs” going at the same time if you have a class of 20 or more. Otherwise it’ll take you forever!
- Don’t be afraid to sit in the “hot seat” yourself! You’ll have a better understanding of what it feels like to be up there, and it’ll make your day!
- .....At the conclusion of someone’s turn at the board, I would ask the class to quiet down a bit and focus their attention towards the reveal. This allowed me to not only see the amazing reactions of the student in “the hot seat” but also the smiles of their peers knowing they had a positive impact. I would then take a photo of the student in front of their board and share it with them via Google Drive, so they could have the photo for as long as they like.
