Super shout out to Megan for the engaging strategies that we can all use! I can't wait to see them in action in your classrooms! She has more to share, so I plan to "bribe" her to do it again!
Speaking of that, I found this great article and site with some awesome ideas as well and pictures to go along with it! Even with SO little time to spare to make your lessons and delivery creative, does it really matter anyway? YES! ABSOLUTELY!! Take a look HERE about 19 more ideas to help make it happen!
ENGAGEMENT is a topic that we will ALWAYS be addressing. We CANNOT stress this enough: Higher engagement = Higher academic achievement and lower behavior concerns. That's really so simple and all there is to it. Students who have to "sit and get" are bored and have completely tuned you out. Completely.
Calling on one student when you ask a question means that YOU have given the others the permission to be turned out. Is that seriously what you want? Stop reverting back to this and just calling on one student at a time. It just tells the other students that they don't have to learn, listen or pay attention.
HERE is a easy read article to help generate effective questions and help you GET AWAY from calling on one student at a time!
