I am constanty thinking about the content of this blog. There are so many things I would like to share that as you can see not many posts so far.
I figured out that I'll write about everything methodology, biology and didactics and other teaching stuff in random order. I hope you'll manage to put it in order on your own.

Today my first and favourite CLASS! YES!
What is this? Well tough to define, I'll use a term catchword - to catch students attention and focusing.

When do I use it? At the beginning of the lesson, in the middle, at the end, in between middle and end and in the middle of the middles too. Whenever I want them to look at me and follow my directions. As Coach B. introduced Diamond Rule I thought: Great! I have something to glue to Class! Yes!
BTW Diamond Rule is: Look at the teacher when he/she speaks.

What is the side advantage? When you use some intro word before your catchwords you get unintentional laugh burst. It's great. My kids (yes, I cannot switch into teens) love: Shaka laka Class! and Yooo Class! and Class! - with my arms to the side as a Superman.

I'm working on a tally sheet, so as soon as I finish typing I'll share.

You know waht is the best about WBT? It works with EVERYBODY :)
Ohhh YES!
