Strategies

My favorite strategy for higher grades is written communication. I think that especially in grades 2 and higher that students love to pass notes and be chatty so this would help give them and educational topic to pass notes about. There is a second grade teacher where I work that had never heard of this strategy and once I told her about she wanted to know more so she could use it within her lessons. I also like this because you could also use other strategies with it.

    I really like this idea. I may try to use this when I teach my lesson in the classroom. They are in 3rd grade and are "chatty" kiddos!

    We were talking about this last weekend and it sounds like fun. I agree this would allow them to chat but it also be about education topics. I would make to make it a point to say that you will look at these and and will give grades or something like that because like you said they are students who love to chat and it might not always be about whats on topic.

    I think you did a good job with your lesson plan this evening I liked that you presented a power point presentation to the class. I think doing lesson plans related to money is a good idea. I did a mini lesson on coins to a 1st grade class and a vast majority of students didn't know about coins. Some students didn't know what a penny or a nickel was. I think using debit and credit cards has taken the place of actual money.

    I personally feel written communication is good for a lot of different lessons, and concepts. It provides options for students.
