First week of placement and I conducted a get to know me activity earlier on in the week!! students had clue strips and hidden puzzle pieces around the room. In groups they had to work out their clue and complete the puzzle to find out information about me !
Check out my personalised secret spy cards for behaviour management!
Two students will be secretly selected for a day to look for well-behaved classmates. Students will be rewarded, including my supportive spies! #behaviourmanagement#acuedu_p
I used this idea on my previous prac - have names of the students in the class on paddle-pop sticks and use this to ask questions/encourage discussion 😊 #acuedu_p
Teaching a lesson on angles? Try washi tape! Washi tape is very versatile and can be used on a range of surfaces without causing damage. The more lines of tape placed down, the more angles your students with find. ✏️ #ACUedu_p
I love this idea for personalised learning goals! Each student wears a lanyard during literacy and numeracy lessons. It’s great for teachers to keep up with where students need to be. I can’t wait to use this. #acuedu_p
During EDFD 452, I have been immersed in the online community of education and teaching. This has provided me with ideas, and strategies to add to my teaching toolkit. #acuedu_p
Blends and digraphs! This recycled connect 4 game was a great way for my year 1 students to practice their digraphs and blends. Students build words using the counters and write them in their literacy books. The kids love it and it’s a great literacy rotation activity✏️ #ACUedu_p
On my last prac, I used these "story starters" to get my students to write creative writing pieces. As always my students were able to surprise me with the different stories they could come up with. #acuedu_p
Bouncy Balls is a great way to manage student noise during independent and small group work. Students can self regulate their volume without the constant intervention from the teacher! #acuedu_p
Let’s talk about ✨🧠BRAIN BREAKS!! I would let the class decide which brain break would best suit them on the day. I’m also open to new suggestions too, giving students the chance to share🤩 Here are my favourites! Hope this is useful😋 #acuedu_p
