We see you. You’ve got your classroom routines set. Your students know your expectations and they’re actively learning in your classroom. But as you head into December, you know the calendar gets crazy (so many holidays, right?) and you’re looking for new and creative ways to keep students engaged until that first winter break.
Have you considered interactive learning resources? The use of these can positively change the dynamic of the classroom from passive listening to active participation. Students can research, experiment, and have fun learning about topics at their own pace through a variety of interactives like virtual labs, investigations, maps, and more.
Not only do interactive learning resources create a fun game-like experience for students, they also provide opportunities for students to test and experiment without you purchasing actual materials for your classroom!
