The best tips for teachers

The 5 most popular tips I have shared this year

☀️ Eedi Summer Club is back! Read here for more details ☀️

I have a second newsletter called Tips for Teachers, where every Monday, I share a 30-second tip for you to try in your classroom that week. Lots of departments use this as a stimulus for their departmental meetings.

So, for the final Eedi newsletter of the academic year, I want to share the five most popular tips from the Tips for Teachers newsletter over the last 12 months.

Which ones have you tried?

Which ones are you excited to try?

1. Play the "Does that make sense?" game

I find this the best way to break of the habit of using this troublesome phrase

2. Can you get us started...

Use this prompt to encourage more students to contribute

3. Don't have the title and date on the board during a Do Now

Students love nothing better than slowly copying them down

4. Try these four different ways of going through the answers

All of them will be more effective than correcting in green pen

5. Don't clean your mini-whiteboard!

Train students so all that valuable data is not lost
