 Re: Your strategies for large classes
Groups are good, and rotation works well too.
Have you tried something akin to speed dating? Maybe that subject itself would be culturally unacceptable where you are teaching, but it could easily be modifed into job interviews, band auditions, team tryouts etc. Split your kids into 2 groups of 11, set them up in interview pairs, and then give them 2 minutes to speak to someone before moving on to the next person. Everyone gets some repetitive practice that way.
To avoid too much repetition, prepare some slips of paper with "special skills" and "special needs" that people have or are looking for.
Good luck, and Happy Halloween! |
