The first strategy that I would like to share materials for are the BINGO/LEARN, that was referred in page 11.

Directions for materials:
1. Make 2 copies of the Bingo cards
2. Use one copy for the actual Bingo cards that you will give to your students,
3. Use the second copy as calling cards by cutting out the squares with the numbers and add the letters from the column that you cut them out from.
4. Have students that finish their classwork quickly, to cut out the Bingo markers.
Quick.easy and fast!!!!

Try this with your students and let me know how it worked out

There is an awesome illustation of how students should have the opportunity to answer easy and difficult questions using Blooms Taxonomy on page 11.

Download Taxonomy question cards, cubes and charts that you can print, laminate and use instantly in your class for any content area.

Students of all ages love the cubes. Have the students roll/ toss them and answer the question that pops up!!

Try them out and let me know how well they work!!!

In chapter 3 the author states that often students see academics as irrelevant to their interest.
Here are a few strategies. Try them out and let me know how they work!!!
