The students’ reactions were so positi

ESCAPE ROOM 1
Greetings,Will Rogers said, “I never met a man I did not like.” I say, “I never met a student who did not love an Escape Room.” Play it anytime – start of the year as an ice-breaker, before exams as a relaxer or reviewer, end of year celebration. You can even give them a single Escape puzzle once a week, or when you finish a lesson early or it flopped. And do not feel guilty. Escape Rooms are serious stuff -- they test problem-solving, thinking, team work, communications skills, and character.

Personal Checks Activity - How to fill out a check
So this is a basic worksheet I've used with my students giving them a few scenarios and then the students have to fill out how they would fill the checks out. Students will be tasked reading a small prompt and then using basic math, figure out what they owe on the check itself. I always use these two prompts, and sometimes I create a duplicate set using the same pictures on page 2. You can create your own scenario and make the kids come up with harder situations. For example, one of the question

Moving Multiple Choice
This is a whole class interactive formula for engaging active students. It's great for middle school and upper elementary students who need a kinesthetic component to their learning. It also allows a teacher to assess quickly the level of understanding of the class. It's most fun when the argument is more important than the specific answer. If the answer is not an obvious one then it provides a safe environment for students to practice critical thinking skills.
