This year has been a first for me...I have taught something other than Algebra I. I was fortunate enough to be able to teach Algebra Plus this year, a supplemental class for Algebra I. I was able to teach at a slower pace and engage students in lots of hands-on activities along with projects using technology. As the year comes to a close it is always difficult to find new and exciting ways to keep students interested in what they are doing until the last day. I have decided to have my students become the teachers. They will all choose a concept and become the teacher. I did this activity my first year of teaching and students seemed to really enjoy it. They have to come up with notes, example problems, a quick exit example and a cheat sheet. Here are some examples from my students.
Here is a freebie for you that I start the year off with my students. A goal sheet to get them started in making goals and realizing what goes along with accomplishing them. Get's them thinking in the right direction.
