Some of you may wonder what are those webcasts and other livestreams...
Well as you may think such crazy people as WBT Teachers have to have the place to get motivation and inspiration from. So there we have webcasts. Those are online "conferences" organized by Chriss Biffle to present some new ideas to do during WBT lessons.
In posts named "Webcasts - week ...." I'll present short summaries and thoughts on those newly presented things. Some of them are not so new, we began meetings in September but they are kind-of-new for those, who didn't know about it before.
WEEK 1
ATTENTION GETTERS
This is one of my favourite things used during classes and I wrote about it here http://brainactivateyourself.blogspot.com/2014/10/oct-15th-2014-my-top-10.html but Coach B. brought some new variations on that.
As the name suggests those are catchwords to get students attention whatever they are doing and wherever they went in their minds.
Teachers role is to choose one and throw it into the air out of a sudden! When I see that my students are doing things that I don't want them to do, I say: CLASS! and immendiately get their eyes on me.
THERE'S ONE POINT we should remember about. Last time I wrote about http://brainactivateyourself.blogspot.com/2014/11/nov-18th-2014-wbt-change-of-heart-oh-my.html and to keep it in mind let's give students options to use. Write on the board three (or more) attention getters and let them choose which you'll be using on your lesson today.
Let them feel the power of that too!
Not satisfied with 10??
OK here are 10 more:
