  4. How are you arranging your classroom? Questions to ask yourself? What do you want the students to do? Can the students handle it? Can it all fit? Does this match your purpose and goals for your students?

  5. Warm-up/Anticipatory Set TECH Non-Tech Senteo Clickers Socrative Edmodo-polling Buckets- (stole this from another teacher ) Here's how: Organize teams of three students and ask them to work together (quietly) and raise their hands when they think they have found all the mistakes. After the first team signals it's done, give a bit more time and then have teams indicate with their fingers -- together on the count of three -- the number of mistakes they found in the work. The team that found the most describes its answers until another team disagrees politely or until they are finished.
