Strategies+that+Work

= Strategies that WORK! =

I am very much aware that some of us have books with very similar titles to this one. But the lovely thing about being in many different groups, with many different instructors is that some of us get exposed to strategies that others don't. So here is an opportunity to share your favorites.  Also in our school visits you may see something that you really like...post it here! And when we finally get in to our practicum we can share what worked, what didn't, and what needed to be modified.

This isn't really a strategy, but for middle school students, it seems project work really clicks. Something like a country-based project for Geography can be used to apply knowledge at the end of a unit, giving students the room to demonstrate what they have learned.
