Do you struggle keeping up with all of your classroom jobs? Does it feel like it hurts more than it helps? Do you need something easier? Simpler? Look no further! My EDITABLE Team Jobs resource gives you SIX (not 24!) jobs for teams of your students to be a part of. Instead of everyone having their own job, I've grouped them together and created engaging job titles for all of your students to take part in! Here's what's included: Six Team Jobs: + Clean Up Crew + Supplies Squad + Book Bunch + Teachers in Training + Transitions Team + Power Posse Pre-made Posters for each job, AND editable versions of each, so you can include your own specification! *NEW* We are a Team header!! WHY Team Jobs? + Promotes Teamwork + Allows students to take ownership of their classroom + Gives responsibilities they can grow in + Changes once a month (easier on you!) + Team members keep each other in line (i.e. Johnny, remember, you're part of the Clean Up Crew! Help us get to trash off the floor!). + You don't have to do it all!! Train them, then they do it all year!! YIPEE!! How do I choose students for each poster? - Once posters have been printed and laminated, you can either make number labels and use velcro to attach them to the poster, or you can use a wet-erase marker to write students' names or numbers on the posters. Both options make it easy to switch up each month! - I recommend keeping a log of who you put in which team, and keep track of who works best with who. Once they've had a chance to do several jobs, you can let them choose too!! Questions? Suggestions? Email me: [email protected] Click the GREEN STAR to follow me!!

Allowing your students to perform rather than simply read a play brings a new dimension to a class study of a dramatic piece. When students get up and act out the parts for their audience –usually comprised of non-acting students in the class – it brings a sense of identifying with and ownership of their parts. They have a safe and small audience to perform in front of – which makes it real and more doable. Bring or encourage costumes, the use of musical instruments in the background, or sound effects, appoint a director if you like, create a lighting crew for act changes – they can even plan spotlighting particular lines using a couple of flashlights. Use a student cinematographer and/or photographer, if appropriate. 1. "Everyman," the religious morality play is updated for today's teen.

Medieval drama has never been this fun - share a taste of Medieval European culture and drama with your students, both middle school and secondary! With this purchase, you will receive BOTH the PLAY and lesson materials for a cross-curricular history and ELA experience. This product is also available in my My Top Five Favorite Products in My Store. Check it out - it's a great deal! Students analyze a cultural experience reflected through this short work of literature (RL6). Check out the preview to read a page of the script! This redo version of the original story (which is a religious morality play from the time) remains in script form, has modern trappings (to make it more relevant for teens), and is a little heavier on the comic side (to keep kids interested and engaged). Students are not expected to memorize their parts, they’ll read it as they perform it (yay readers' theater!). One of the most effective aspects of this piece is that it taps in to students’ emotional-cognitive brain connection which makes for a fun and very effective learning experience. Allowing your students to perform rather than simply read a play brings a new dimension to a class study of a dramatic piece. When students get up and act out the parts for their audience –usually comprised of non-acting students in the class – it brings a sense of identifying with and ownership of their parts. They have a safe and small audience to perform in front of – which makes it real and more doable. Bring or encourage costumes, the use of musical instruments in the background, or sound effects, appoint a director if you like, create a lighting crew for act changes – they can even plan spotlighting particular lines using a couple of flashlights. Use a student cinematographer and/or photographer, if appropriate. If you don’t have time for all or any of these ideas, it’s super easy and works great if students simply get up and perform their parts. Using neon tape and/or running lights can edge your stage area and add a special exciting touch. Again, no preparation is fine as well. As you know, teens have active imaginations and have no trouble suspending their disbelief. Make it as simple or complex as you like. Just get ready for a wonderful day and experience for all. This will be one of those school experiences that makes memories for students – plus one that impart an on-the-spot sense of meaningfulness to you as their teacher. You DO make a difference in their lives every day! Great for history class literacy cross-curriculum connection.

Empower your students, foster a sense of ownership and collaboration, and create a positive learning environment with this comprehensive activity that will help you facilitate a class contract making activity. This activity guides teachers in creating a class contract with their students to foster a collaborative, respectful, and inclusive learning environment. The process involves brainstorming sessions, both as a whole class and in small groups, where students share their thoughts on effective learning and propose rules of engagement. The final contract, agreed upon and signed by all, serves as a commitment to maintain the established positive learning environment throughout the academic year. By setting up the term with an open discussion about what your classroom's ethic of learning is, you help students actively participate in shaping their classroom's culture and norms. By having your students collaborate on a class contract, they're more likely to feel involved, respected, and accountable for maintaining a positive learning atmosphere. What's Included Teaching Guide: A step-by-step manual that provides detailed instructions for conducting this enriching classroom activity. It also includes a FAQ style troubleshooting section that helps you avoid common pitfalls when facilitating this activity. Definition Posters: A set of ten printable posters that define key terms like 'collaboration,' 'respect,' 'effective learning environment,' and more. These can be hung up in your classroom to serve as reminders and to help students better understand the concepts involved in creating their class contract. Though posters are in colour, they are also readable and aesthetic when printed in black and white. Prompt Cards: A collection of eight discussion prompt cards designed for the small group brainstorming sessions. These prompts are formulated to stimulate critical thinking and meaningful conversations among students, helping them to come up with comprehensive and inclusive classroom norms. Whether you're a new teacher setting up your first classroom or an experienced educator looking to foster a greater sense of community, this resource can be a valuable tool to encourage student involvement and ownership over their learning environment.
