This creative Art Room Gaming Badges Activity was designed to be printed and displayed as examples while you teach. Use this Google Slide file to display these beautiful images one-by-one on a large screen. *NOTE: this is a yearly event; it will take most of a full school year for any student to complete all 30 gaming badges…and that’s a good thing! *Students may try for any badge, in any order, however, students will want to start working on gaining easy gaming badges first, before trying to get the harder ones done. *Once students accomplish the criteria for a certain badge, either the teacher or the student may take colored pencils (only) to color the accomplished badge, so it looks similar to the completed version. *Move on to completing another great gaming badge. Good Luck! I hope you and your kiddos love this! Enjoy.

As educators, we shifted away from incorporating hands-on resources in the classroom during the onset of COVID-19. Utilizing hands-on materials provides students with a tactile and experiential approach, offering a tangible way for learners to connect with abstract concepts and enhance understanding. Through hands-on engagement, such as manipulating objects or participating in interactive activities, students can more readily comprehend intricate ideas and improve information retention. It's now opportune to revisit and rediscover the hands-on resources available for classroom use or those that may have been overlooked.

Ron Clark 55 Essential Rules Slides (Canva Copy Link)

The daily focus is on one rule at a time, spanning from Rule 1 to Rule 55. You have the option to print a weekly slide to share with parents or use it as a classroom guide. Additionally, you can download the slide as an image for social media sharing or use it on your smartboard for teaching and modeling each week's rule. Each slide features the corresponding Ron Clark rule accompanied by a relevant picture. The editable slides allow customization to align with your school's preferences, including the option to replace pictures with images of your students exemplifying the rule.

Engaging Top Chef Professional Development Template (Canva Copy Link)

This Canva Template Presentation revolves around the "Top Chef" theme, featuring a teach-off challenge for teachers to showcase their expertise in the focused teaching strategy or best practice emphasized in the professional development. Within a specified time frame, teachers will research the topic, create presentations, and present in front of judges, fostering a dynamic and collaborative learning environment. Similar to the show "Top Chef," this format encourages teachers to learn from each other, gaining insights into diverse strategies for classroom implementation.

Introducing the perfect end-of-year classroom digital game - "Google Slides Stand-Up"! This interactive and engaging before-summer-break game is designed to help your students reflect on their academic accomplishments and experiences throughout the school year as well as share exciting plans for the summer!

With "Google Slides Stand-Up," you'll have access to a set of pre-made slides with an editable template for you to customize to fit your own classroom needs.

As students read each statement, they will stand up if it relates to them. This not only provides a fun and interactive way to celebrate their achievements, but it also encourages students to reflect on their growth and progress over the school year while sharing exciting things coming up in their lives for the summer.

⭐Save 30% with the stand-up game bundle!⭐

Directions:

Read the statement on the slide

Students who relate to the statement will stand

Allow time for students to look around and share commonalities

*Note this product may be used in brick and mortar classes as well as virtual systems like Outschool.

This creative Art Room Gaming Badges Activity was designed to be printed and displayed as examples while you teach. Use this Google Slide file to display these beautiful images one-by-one on a large screen. *NOTE: this is a yearly event; it will take most of a full school year for any student to complete all 30 gaming badges…and that’s a good thing! *Students may try for any badge, in any order, however, students will want to start working on gaining easy gaming badges first, before trying to get the harder ones done. *Once students accomplish the criteria for a certain badge, either the teacher or the student may take colored pencils (only) to color the accomplished badge, so it looks similar to the completed version. *Move on to completing another great gaming badge. Good Luck! I hope you and your kiddos love this! Enjoy.
