TED Talk 16 Lesson Bundle #2

This TED Talk Lesson Bundle contains 16 TED Lessons and activities.

TED lessons may be used as mini-lessons, supplements to a prepared lesson or unit, one-day lessons for in-between units, or sub-day lesson plans. Most TED Talks are less than 18 minutes long, allowing time to watch the TED Talk in class, complete the TED Talk video guide, and engage in small or large-group discussion about the topic. Depending on the complexity and/or interest-level, some TED Talk lessons may take longer than one class period to complete. If your schedule does not allow for more than one class period to be spent on a TED Talk lesson, most TED Talks include an interactive transcript tool which is extremely helpful for students working independently or finishing TED Talk assignments at home as homework. My students LOVE the interactive transcript feature.

TED Talk lessons make great extra credit opportunities! Students love them because they are interesting and meaningful- not just "busy work."

TED lessons also make great lessons on "sub days." All fourteen lessons are "prep-free" and ready to go. Links to TED Talks are included in the lessons and can be easily found at https://www.ted.com/ or https://www.youtube.com/.
