Ideas That Really Work!

Two teachers recently approached our booth at a conference, picked up Ideas that Really Work! and turned to the activity called “Word Snapshot Posters.” “This is one of the most successful things we have ever tried,” one of them said. “Our kids loved it! I couldn’t believe how absorbed they were, for days.”

“Word Snapshot Posters” is just one of a wide variety of interesting and unusual activities in Ideas that Really Work! The book is a potpourri of materials that will make your life easier. It covers a wide range of topics. Just a few of them:

• writing introductions
• understanding plagiarism
• using quotation marks correctly
• using commercials to teach critical thinking
• looking at slang
• planning a schoolwide English trivia bowl
• grammar ideas for teachers who hate teaching grammar

The book is very adaptable and is targeted for grades 7-9, though much of the book can be used with older students as well. Best of all, the ideas really do work with students. Give them a try!
