An excellent resource consisting of 2 fun games of revision for Industrial Technology – Timber students, testing their knowledge of Work, Health and Safety, tools, machines and PPE in the workshop. WHS Bingo allows students to answer a series of questions as a class that are called out by the teacher. These questions are in relation to Work, Health and Safety in the workshop. The game is played until Bingo has been called or until every student has called Bingo. What Am I? is played similar to celebrity heads where a couple of students are positioned in front of their peers with a What Am I? card above their head. The cards have either a tool, machine or PPE listed. The students take it in turn to ask their peers a series of questions until they correctly guess the card that is above their head. This game develops student ability to identify and describe various tools, machines and PPE in the timber workshop. Includes: 1x game of WHS Bingo (includes a set of 12 student bingo cards, teacher Q&A and instructions). 1x game of What Am I? (includes a set of 88 What Am I? cards and teacher instructions). Relevant to: Work, Health and Safety; tools, machines and PPE relevant to Industrial Technology – Timber.
Three of the biggest factors in classroom management are sorted in this teaching resource: organisation, managing downtime and positive relationship building.
In the classroom, there are always stragglers who drag their feet or others who are ready, bored and waiting for the lesson to start, and both of those scenarios can cause mischief-making moments.
Particularly useful for new teachers or substitute teachers, these Fun Time Fillers require no resources (except for occasionally a blackboard or whiteboard). They are separated into three groups: numeracy, literacy and socialisation. They generally take 5 minutes, but can be extended to suit your needs. Pick your favourites and make them an everyday tool as you move from lesson to lesson. For many children, these are powerful opportunities to consolidate learning, or to build important social skills.
Once children are familiar, you will find that just by saying, “Let’s play a game …” many children who are otherwise distracted will immediately be engaged. Once the game is over, you have their attention and are able to give instructions to transition into the next task.
Enjoy this toolbox of ideas that challenge children’s thinking, helping them learn while having fun, and with no-prep required for the teacher! Winning!
These five games are a great way for kids to practise their mathematical skills, while socialising and having fun! The activities are designed for students to play with partners, in some cases up to four players. The only requirements are dice, a deck of cards and 20 counters, to play all five games.
Although they are design as multiplication practice, all of the games have the option for use as addition practice as well. Use these games as an early finisher task or a transition from one lesson to the next.
In the last 15-20 years scientists have made huge leaps in discovering how the brain functions, and also how to strengthen it. We have leaned that the frontal lobe (prefrontal cortex) is responsible for much of our higher level cognitive function … our reasoning, logic, comprehension and learning capacity.
These activities focus on the combination of decoding, visual-spatial perception, filtering and concentration, all of which take place in the frontal lobe. They are an uncomplicated way to help students train their brain and are designed for students to use on their own or with partners. They are quick activities that shouldn’t take more than five minutes. They do not require any other resources.
They can be used as transition tasks between lessons or as an early finisher’s task.
