  9. Take Off…Touch Down • Students should move periodically to provide oxygen to the brain. • Good instruction is not related to good classroom management. • The brain needs oxygen for optimal learning. • For most students, provide 20 minutes of instruction and 5 minutes of processing. • Chunking instruction allows time for students to process information.

  20. Rock, Paper, Scissors The teacher asks a question and each student discusses it with a partner. Students do rock, paper, scissors, and the winner has to give the response to the teacher on behalf of the team (pairs or trios).

  21. Newspaper Headliner Students are asked to capture the main idea of the event studied during the lesson and to write a headline and a “grabbing”opening paragraph that would create interest in the event.

  22. Chalkboard Champs • The class is divided into 3-4 teams. • The chalkboard/whiteboard is divided into a large space for each team. • Each person needs a writing utensil. • When the teacher says “Go,” all team members rush to their area and write or draw (symbols/pictures) to represent key ideas in the current topic of study. (It will be crowded!) • At the end of 3 minutes, each team must present 2-3 ideas from their chalkboard creation.

  23. Walk and Talk • Give students a prompt: • Define the terms simile and metaphor. • Share examples of similes and metaphors. • Ask them to form pairs or triads • Stand up, walk around the room, out in the hall, etc. and discuss their idea/answer with their partner(s).

  24. Walk and Talk • With your partner… • Grab your handout • Walk and Talk about this question: • What strategies have we suggested this morning that you will use in your classroom? Make a commitment to try ONE!
