This is a group activity. I cut these strips and fold them into a bowl. In a group setting I draw a slip and read it to the group. We discuss if it is funny and what would be the right thing to do.
Great beginning of the year activity: Instead of having students raise their hand each week and tell the teacher if they want to be the line leader or door holder, have them fill out a job application form that describes their reasoning for wanting the job. This will teach the students real-world writing lessons on how to fill out a job application in the future. I also explain to the student that just like in real life, they can loose their job if they do not follow the guidelines.
Use this form to plan activities based on child development. Touching all these areas ensures deeper learning and the opportunity to reach all students. Use for any activity and with all ages. When you order the planning form you can also select a separate assessment and goal form that coordinates with it. It has an easy to use check off format.
Chess is an excellent classroom activity that can be enjoyed by students of all levels.
If your students play chess in class, but have limited time, at the end of the period they can jot down where the pieces are on this sheet, and save time re-setting the board the next class time.
This blank board can also be used for teaching chess to students.
