Going with the Flow: 35 Classroom Activities for Productively Channeling Middle-Grade Energy
Facilitator(s): Greg Cunningham, Kristin Weller


Workshop   +   Classroom Practice: curriculum & instruction   +   Middle School
The essential middle grades classroom must recognize and accept its students' developmental peculiarities. To succeed in this environment, to teach them, to truly use their minds well, educators must have a very, very deep bag of tricks. This high-energy, hands-on session is designed to significantly deepen that bag with an expansive array of proven classroom activities that stimulate meaning-making, develop students' own metacognition, and most importantly, allow classroom movement that is organized, productive, and fun. We will evaluate our learning styles and the learning styles of young adolescents, discovering great ways to engage our students. Participants will receive copies of all activities and support materials.
Date/Time: Saturday, 8:00am - 10:00am   Room: CC 204   Session #167
