I learned that they should include some form of writing and should incorporate both a review of content and a preview.

Luke- I want to know the difference between a bell ringer and what would be consider a "hook" to engage a student.

Luke

A "warm up" is something that students will do at the beginning of a content class.

# data[].attributes.body
They are meant to be a preview or review of a lesson. They should also be in the same place everyday that way it becomes a habit for the students.

# data[].attributes.body
I like the term 'preview or review' to help narrow down what the warm up can be. I learned that are some examples on Teachers Pay Teachers.

# data[].attributes.body
Bell ringers don't need to necessarily apply to what is being done academically (even if it may ultimately be better if they are) to be an effective way of getting students settled in to a class.

# data[].attributes.body
Bell ringers should always have a writing aspect

# data[].attributes.body
Jessica: I loved the emphasis on using them strategically for review/preview and for formative assessment, rather than just as busy work to keep the kids quiet.

# data[].attributes.body
I have learned that they need to be quick and it can be a review over any material that was taught in class.

Andrew- Warm Ups help start the class in an orderly fashion because they establish clear expectations

# data[].attributes.body
I learned specific examples of warm ups and how they can be used in the classroom.

# data[].attributes.body
Making sure that students don't think that warm ups are busy work

# data[].attributes.body
I learned about using them with pre-K and kinder kids.

# data[].attributes.body
I'd like to know if there are different ways to do bellringers/warm ups other than just paper and pencil style.

# data[].attributes.body
Anne- I would like to learn some good examples of these and where to find some good resources.

# data[].attributes.body
most effective ways to implement them and to tie them to our lesson plans for the day

# data[].attributes.body
I want to know the distinction between a warm up and a pre-activity.

# data[].attributes.body
It will be helpful to learn different ways to make them interesting specially when the students are coming in early in the morning.

# data[].attributes.body
Jessica: I'd like to know what they are (if my guesses are correct) and how we can use the practice(s) in our classrooms.

What is the best way to ensure warm ups are effective?

# data[].attributes.body
Bellringers/warm ups are a great way to help students transition into the school day and get their minds focused and ready for learning.

# data[].attributes.body
Andrew- what is the most effective format for warm ups?

# data[].attributes.body
They get students ready for the day ahead. Whether it be creative writing in a journal or a math word problem, it prepares you to get in the zone of learning.

# data[].attributes.body
I know that bell ringers are used to set up the activity and are not meant to be long.

# data[].attributes.body
Anne- I know nothing about this, except what I can guess from the words. It seems like a specific activity to start the class with as kids are coming in and sitting down.

# data[].attributes.body
Warm ups are a great way to "hook" students attention and orient them to think about the days topic

# data[].attributes.body
Andrew - Warm-ups focus the class and remind the students of the previous days' lessons

# data[].attributes.body
What the best practices are for making effective bellringers.

# data[].attributes.body
Jessica: I think warm-ups are similar to "Do Nows" and bell-ringers are similar to exit tickets?

# data[].attributes.body
It's always great to have more ideas and share strategies. One of the best things about observing other teachers is the ability to share ideas and these are great resources to share.

# data[].attributes.body
They help the student to settle down and start thinking.

# data[].attributes.body
In my experience these always help me "get in the zone" so to speak. This has been really true for almost everything too, sports, music, and school have all seemed to benefit from some sort of warm up.

# data[].attributes.body
This is a big part of the ESL classroom so I'm pretty familiar with them. I have many books of resources that I've been using for years.
