ESL Worksheets English Exercises English grammar + Exercises + PDF Teaching games This is a game for upper-intermediate and advanced students. It was designed as a speaking game and serves as a revision tool for two lexical sets: professions and personality adjectives. The main focus is a better understanding of the subtleties of personality adjectives through group discussion. Download the handout by clicking here This is a game developed using a format I outlined in a previous post – Apples to apples – adapting-games. There are two sets of cards: professions and personality adjectives. Each player is dealt six cards from the professions deck. Here is an example round of the game: There are five players, four players who are competing and one judge. The four players select professions which fit this criteria and reveal their cards. The winner is given the personality card to show they won the round. The game is very simple to follow and generates interesting conversations and unusual arguments. The cards are available for download [Here]. Thanks for reading!
How I Use One-Pagers in English Language Arts (With Examples!) One-pagers and Sketchnotes have become incredibly popular in recent years, and it’s easy to see why. Rather than just jotting down words on a page, students use one-pagers to visually represent key points and takeaways. They’re fun to create and have a real impact on memory and comprehension. Here’s how to use them, plus lots of terrific one-pager examples to inspire you and your students. What Are One-Pagers? Source: Chomping at the Lit One-pagers invite students to think deeply about a text and produce a single page to represent its most important aspects. This note-taking concept was pioneered by AVID, a group that seeks to prepare all students for college. How To Get Started With One-Pagers Source: Spark Creativity One problem teachers face when encouraging kids to use one-pagers is that some students don’t feel “artistic” enough. Some kids will take the idea and run with it right off the bat. One-Pager Examples and Ideas Simple DNA One-Pager Source: @sciencelessonsthatrock Source: @laumom

[5], [10], [1], [9], [6], [7], and [4] Following Laursen and others ([8] and [2]) we identify IBL in post-secondary education with classroom practices that have the following characteristics: We created a short document with Good Starter Activities that you can use to get a sense of the type of inquiry questions we use in our classes. For additional discussion and video about good starter activities please see our blog First Day of the Semester: Good Activities.
