Just one and a half weeks to Spring break. It cannot come soon enough! We are all dying for a break to just refresh and recharge for the final days of the year.
My class finished Romeo and Juliet today and I am so happy. It always seems a struggle to get through the play with the language! We are working on projects in relations to the play. My kids are rewriting the ending of the play - what would ultimately have happened if all had gone according to the first plan the Friar made.
They are required to make a video either through goanimate or through toonboon and share their videos with one another. I am so excited to see the different endings they come up with! This activity is definitely an activity that is keeping the students engaged during the last few days before break. It seems difficult to get students to do their usual routine now that the weather is getting warmer, the end of the year is in sight, and spring break less than two weeks away. Time to spice things up!
How do YOU keep your students learning during the days leading up to spring break?
Cheers!
Ms. Bergin
