In response to: "Starting the School Year Lessons."

In this short blog post, Brian Thomas offers four lessons to begin the school year with. Thomas has linked each one of the lesson plans which will take you to the lesson itself with directions/instructions. First lesson is a getting to know each other activity. Second is an introduction to interactive notebooks. Third is a discussion on learning styles and working with others. Lastly, Thomas gives an automated classroom procedures list to save on instructional time. All four of his short lessons are going to need to be tailored to the needs of your individual classroom. Thomas also includes a link at the bottom of this linked site to his own blog page which he adds monthly free lesson plans to. Great ideas for the first week of school.
This is a really cool blog post site. There are a lot of nice ideas and activities on here.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing. I took a look at the lessons and I particularly enjoyed the Multiple Intelligences lesson. I use a M.I. test in the first week of school and it is very beneficial.
