How do I keep a group of teenagers attentive and interested? | |||
This is what one of our teachers used to do with a class of 17 years olds:
1. Organize them into groups 2. For every verbal presentation or discussion - 1 or 2 marks will be awarded to each group 3. The group with the least number of marks at the end of the week has to come up with a current affairs quiz the following week - 10 questions with answers 4. Give the winners prizes at the end of the term With this in place, even going through comprehension answers is not tedious/enervating as they seem to thrive when ther is competition. It involves keeping records of group performance throughout the term - but it is worth the effort because it keeps everyone on their toes. Sounds like a good idea! |
