Professional Development- Engaging Stations

Are you in need of an engaging professional development for your teachers? We expect our teachers to be engaging with their students but we rarely engage our teachers with their learning. Additionally, as teachers, we got away from using hands-on resources in the classroom when COVID-19 happened. Hands-on resources give students a tangible, experiential way for learners to engage with concepts, making abstract ideas more concrete and understandable. By physically manipulating objects or engaging in interactive activities, students can grasp complex concepts more easily and retain information better. Now it is time to refresh our memory on the hands-on resources we can use in the classroom or that we have buried somewhere. 

This Canva Presentation is a copy that you can edit and is centered around giving teachers engaging ideas to use for centers or rotations.  The professional development is editable and can be altered to fit your teachers’ needs.

Additionally, this presentation can also be downloaded as a PowerPoint or Google Slide. You will go to the share button in Canva and then the download button. After the download button, press the down arrow where the file type is and select the file you want to download it as. 

This PD is important because it gives teachers the following to think about:

  • Varied Teaching Strategies: It introduces teachers to diverse teaching methodologies. Engaging stations often incorporate different activities, catering to various learning styles and preferences. This equips educators with a range of strategies to better engage and reach different types of learners in their classrooms.

  • Active Learning Techniques: Stations promote active learning, encouraging students to interact, explore, and apply knowledge actively. Educators trained in these techniques can create dynamic, interactive learning environments that stimulate student involvement and participation.

  • Differentiated Instruction: Stations can be tailored to accommodate different proficiency levels or learning paces within a classroom. Through professional development, teachers learn how to design and implement stations that cater to individual student needs, allowing for more personalized instruction.

  • Increased Student Engagement: Engaging stations often lead to higher student interest and participation. By providing professional development in this area, teachers can learn strategies to create captivating, interactive lessons that capture students' attention and foster a love for learning.

  • Encourages Collaboration: Stations often involve group work or collaboration among students. Training teachers in station-based learning encourages them to design activities that promote teamwork, communication, and cooperation among their students.

The topics and what is included:

  • 15 Editable Canva Slides on Engaging Stations

  • Real pictures of centers and students using the centers

Juego de mesa de Navidad con 94 adivinanzas y acertijos

By Ms Garcia Store

No olvides que este juego de mesa se juega con el modo presentación de PowerPoint.

¿Quién no ama los clásicos juegos de mesa? Esta es una adaptación navideña de uno de ellos. Tira los dados y mueve tu ficha. Intenta ser el primero en llegar exactamente a la casilla 36 y no caer en las bombas ya que te harán retroceder. Si aterrizas al comienzo de las flechas avanzarás muchas casillas. Si aterrizas en el primer sombrero, te llevará al segundo sombrero, pero si aterrizas en el segundo, te llevará de regreso al primero. No es necesario saberse las reglas pues al caer en una de estas casillas se activará automáticamente la animación que mueva tu ficha al lugar que le corresponda.

Pueden jugar de 1 a 4 jugadores o grupos de jugadores. Mi consejo es dividir la clase en 2, 3 o 4 grupos. Después de cada movimiento de la ficha, trata de responde uno de los 94 acertijos que aparecerán aleatoriamente al hacer clic en las cartas de preguntas. Cada grupo dará su respuesta por consenso y el grupo que la acierte, o que más se acerque a su respuesta correcta, será el que continúe el juego tirando los dados nuevamente. Si el acertijo es demasiado difícil para el nivel de su grupo, vuelva a hacer clic en las tarjetas de preguntas y saldrá una nueva.

Los acertijos son editables y, por lo tanto, se pueden cambiar con preguntas de las lecciones que se está dando, pero no elimine los cuadros de texto si no desea eliminar sus animaciones.

Los acertijos para niños pueden:

Mejora la comprensión lectora.

Les ayuda a concentrarse y prestar más atención.

Impulsa la resolución de problemas y el pensamiento crítico.

Fortalece las habilidades y conciencia lingüística.

Promueve el pensamiento analítico y el razonamiento deductivo.

Los acertijos también pueden mejorar el estado de ánimo de tus estudiantes, hacerlos reír y darles una sensación de logro.

No olvides que este juego de mesa se juega en modo de presentación de PowerPoint.

Instrucciones:

Cuando abra el documento por primera vez, se le pedirá que habilite el contenido que está bloqueado por razones de seguridad. Ese contenido no es más que el código de Visual Basic para el botón de tarjetas de preguntas para lograr un orden aleatorio de acertijos. Acéptelo para obtener las diapositivas de los juegos en dicho orden aleatorio.

Instructions:

When you first open the document, you will be prompted to enable content that is blocked for security reasons. That content is nothing more than the Visual Basic code for the question cards button to achieve random riddles order. Please accept it in order to get the slides of the games in random order.
