Lame duck... school days


30 προτεινόμενες δραστηριότητες που μπορούν να γίνουν μέσα στην τάξη τις περιόδους...απραξίας, δηλαδή πριν από τις διακοπές ή τις εξετάσεις!!!!!!

  1. Thank-You Notes: Since this important life skill isn’t really a part of any curriculum, a Lame Duck day is a perfect time to have students practice it and show some gratitude to the people who deserve it. Provide them with paper and envelopes and have them write thank-you notes to friends, family members, school staff members, or other students. For best results, show them a few examples of thoughtfully written notes ahead of time.
  2. The Compliments Project: This is an incredible activity where students take turns being in the “hot seat” while their classmates write compliments on the board behind them. You have to see this one to appreciate its full impact. Watch here. Although this activity only takes about 5 to 10 minutes per student, which means it would be something you could squeeze into the end of a class period, you should only get it started if you know you’ll eventually have time to put every student in the hot seat.
  3. Go Outside: Many of the activities listed in this post could also be done outside, or you could just play a classic outdoors game like Red Rover or Red Light, Green Light. Check out this list of games for ideas.
  4. Play Charades: Teach kids the basic rules (here’s a simple overview of charades rules from the Game Gal website). Word clues could be content-related or just for fun. This word generator could provide words without the need for you to prepare anything ahead of time, and students could click through word options quickly until they find one they like.

Το ... άνοιγμα των ... κλειστών πνευματικών ανθρώπων



...Why, then, are academics not doing more to share their work with the broader public?
The answer appears to be threefold: a narrow idea of what academics should or shouldn’t do; a lack of incentives from universities or governments; and a lack of training in the art of explaining complex concepts to a lay audience.

Μήπως τελικά οι μαθητές μας δεν ζητούν και πάρα πολλά από εμάς;;;


https://www.edutopia.org/blog/student-engagement-tips-from-student-harley-center


Οι μαθητές ζητούν από εμάς 4 πράγματα:

1. μια φιλικότερη σχέση μαζί τους

2. χιούμορ στη διδασκαλία

3. ελευθερία στις επιλογές projects

4. έκθεση της δουλειάς τους στους υπόλοιπους μαθητές

Μήπως, τελικά, δεν ζητούν και πάρα πολλά????
