Let's face it ,,, getting kids excited about the likes of grammar, punctuation, syntax is a tall order for any ELA teacher.
This is the major reason why I am always concocting gamified approaches to instruction.
In today's video, I went old-skool 1980s ... back to our dreaded Whammy friend from the classic television game show, Press Your Luck.
This is such a fun and engaging way to shore up all the basics and fundamentals.
Over the course of the summer, I will also be scheming up ideas to gamify sentence construct variation ... as well as exercises to help students develop and foster their voice, rhythm, and flow.
Happy teaching and happy writing!
