Frosty Fun: Language Learning Activities Focused on Winter and Fun |
The best teachers my kids ever had are ones that incorporate multiple mediums and activities into a lesson. There's something for everyone and so much reinforcement. I love everything about what you've put together here.
Thanks Eileen, I admire homeschoolers. I thought about homeschooling my daughter but I find it easier to teach classrooms of up to 50 students! My daughter just said that she wanted to write the story idea from this though. I hope you and your child(ren) have fun this winter!
These are fun and engaging ideas! I can see how children/students would benefit from them.
Reading your post made me miss teaching all over again. Great ideas.
So before I had kids I was teacher. I love how you are centering the lesson plans around the weather and environment. I believe that kids are more excited about learning and are more attentive when they learn though play or are inspired by what's around them. Great share!!
Hi Aundrea, I totally agree, learning should be engaging, fun and active. I teach university students (big kids) and they still love to play even though they have been trained not to expect it. After a few months of encouraging them to choose their own activities and enjoy/be proud of their work, they begin to demand it.
Wow! I'm not saying anything new in these comments, but I just wanted to let you know I also think these are great ideas.
What an excellent resource your site is. The world needs great educators!
Thank you so much Liz! The world does need great educators. Learning should be such a joyous and enriching experience that we can't get enough of it. I fee like if we encouraged educators to be creative and passionate they could inspire those things in their students.
Hi Kia this is Özge ( Anita's friend from TED Malatya )😊 What an awesome blog it is! Thank you for sharing these ideas. I appreciated them a lot 🖒. They are really worth trying. I am looking forward to use these ideas and sharing my feedback with you when the fall semester starts in my country.

Hi, I'm Kia.
Teaching is my passion, I have been teaching for over 20 years in 4 different continents. One of the things I have learned over the years is that I am never done learning about teaching. Both teaching and learning should be fun and inspiring.
