Description

Try this fun, effective teaching strategy that masquerades as a game but involves students in developing a deep understanding of concepts across the curriculum. This free eBook includes:
*Scripted examples that model the strategy in primary and intermediate classrooms;
*Directions for use in grades K, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and beyond;
*My special “twist” on the strategy…a learning activity on using mistakes to create success (lesson, worksheet, posters);
*All printables and graphics for implementing the strategy;
*Sample concept attainment lists for math, English language arts, science, and geography (social studies);
*How to develop your own concept attainment lists;
*How to assess students with What’s the Big Idea?;
*Correlation of this brain-compatible strategy with Common Core State Standards (CCSS), Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS), DOK, and Bloom’s.
NOTE: I have used concept attainment successfully for 27 years, and I believe this eBook will help you and your students love it as much as I do. Try this fabulous freebie and let me know what you think! Blessings, Bonnie Murray McIntyre
