An example for a science class would be: "Carbon sinks are to  oceans like carbon sources are to ___________________" Answers I would be looking for would be "fossil fuel use/extraction, livestock, humans exhaling."

Technology Use: I might use Mentimeter.com for this so that I could see all of the student responses on the board instead of having students call out answers.

EXAMPLE: I could write this question on the board and ask them to write their answers on a piece of paper. What was the muddiest point during our primary source analysis of The Stamp Act?

TECHNOLOGY USE: I could ask the question on Google Classroom]]> 2019-09-26 21:13:59 UTC https://padlet.com/susiedobkins/hj7qobrqmsgb/wish/390301022 https://padlet.com/susiedobkins/hj7qobrqmsgb/wish/390301145 Students discuss the element of art texture.

Have youth in round table format discuss what they perceive as pro and con, advantage and disadvantages, impacts, etc. Have controlled discussion using background knowledge and personal opinions.

For example: students are asked, "If you and a friend are both hired to work at the local pizza parlor and your friend has told you how much she hates her job, she regularly is late, calls in sick (when you know she's not sick), etc. - do you tell your boss because you are irritated with your friends behaviors? Why or why not?]]> 2019-09-26 21:15:47 UTC https://padlet.com/susiedobkins/hj7qobrqmsgb/wish/390301459 https://padlet.com/susiedobkins/hj7qobrqmsgb/wish/390301492 After reading the chapters in the novels, I group my students up in groups of 4. I then have them write 6 questions and answers from the chapters read to ask the other groups. If the group answers the question correctly they receive 2 points. If they do not answer the question correctly, the group asking the question receives the 2 points. The kids love this. They try and come up with questions they assume the other groups will not be able to answer.]]> 2019-09-26 21:15:55 UTC https://padlet.com/susiedobkins/hj7qobrqmsgb/wish/390301492 https://padlet.com/susiedobkins/hj7qobrqmsgb/wish/390301614 Ask students what they already know about _____________?]]> 2019-09-26 21:16:27 UTC https://padlet.com/susiedobkins/hj7qobrqmsgb/wish/390301614 https://padlet.com/susiedobkins/hj7qobrqmsgb/wish/390301675 After the students read a short story, I would have them choose two characters, discuss the setting in which the conversation takes place, and then write a small dialogue.]]> 2019-09-26 21:16:40 UTC https://padlet.com/susiedobkins/hj7qobrqmsgb/wish/390301675 https://padlet.com/susiedobkins/hj7qobrqmsgb/wish/390301790 2019-09-26 21:17:08 UTC https://padlet.com/susiedobkins/hj7qobrqmsgb/wish/390301790 https://padlet.com/susiedobkins/hj7qobrqmsgb/wish/390301863 work on reviewed concepts with students, at the end of class have students create 2-4 questions on the concept that was just taught]]> 2019-09-26 21:17:23 UTC https://padlet.com/susiedobkins/hj7qobrqmsgb/wish/390301863 https://padlet.com/susiedobkins/hj7qobrqmsgb/wish/390302012 My students have trouble seeing the positives, this would be a good way to have them reflect. I would use it as an exit ticket at the end of the day. ]]> 2019-09-26 21:17:56 UTC https://padlet.com/susiedobkins/hj7qobrqmsgb/wish/390302012 https://padlet.com/susiedobkins/hj7qobrqmsgb/wish/390302374 Great way to make sure they are understanding the concepts being taught, in a structured way, while providing effective feedback!

Could be a good therapy activity.
