Name Bingo
On my first day of class, I'm planning to play a Name Bingo with my 16 students.
I'll write their names on separate slips and have them choose 8 names and write them down in their notebooks for the game.
Time Capsule
I'll give the students a worksheet for them to complete with their personal information, likes and dislikes, favorites, and abilities. I'll collect their sheets and read the information (not mentioning their names) for their peers to guess who I'll be referring to.
After that, I'll keep all the sheets in a capsule (a Pringles canister wrapped in foil) and return them back to the students on the last day of class. I wonder if anything will have changed by then.
Storytelling
I chose "The Teacher from the Black Lagoon", by Mike Thaller. There's a fantastic YouTube video - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QuRlqN2aZow - I'll show it to the students in class. Later we'll play Bingo with the book characters.
