Participants: Grace Axler-DiPerte, Elizabeth Mulligan, Nicole Beveridge
- Nicole shared her experiences with Team Based Learning and IF/AT cards, Trivia games using analog methods and Quizlet are also helpful in her lessons.
- Elizabeth shared the results of her structure/function game developed in the previous meeting.
- Students were engaged and enjoyed participating
- Game would be better by refining the categories and adding pictures to make relationships between structure and function more clear.
- Used simple notecards to make the game, did not take much time.
- We discussed developing games to aid in “Deep Reading” and reading comprehension.
- Cut up reading and summarize meanings and have students make matches
- Students may write a passage for another team of students to interpret
- Scavenger hunts where students need to find clues or deeper meaning in the reading passages
- Next meeting will review results from these activities and look into ways to use games to stimulate interest prior to a lesson.
