I found this article while looking through some articles about student engagement on the edutopia website (edutopia.org).
One of my goals of this blog is to provide you with resources that make you think a little bit. This article is by an AP English teacher from New Jersey. A side note, if at any time you feel you would like to write a "look what I am doing article" and submit it to edutopia, that is possible. Their website gives direction on how to do that.
The article talks about the first and last 8 minutes in a class period and how they are used. I would encourage you to read the short article.
Questions To Consider:
1. Do you find yourself using the first and last eight minutes effectively?
2. Do you have routines for the first and last eight minutes?
3. What do you think about having students share successes or share out something positive that someone has done for them?
