STRATEGY OF THE WEEK

"Every-Day" Activities

Description
Students love routine. Use that fact to your advantage by offering "Every-Day" Activities in one or more of your curriculum areas. These daily activities offer reinforcement and practice, ensure retention, and improve end-of-year test results.

Learn More About "Every-Day" Activities
Education World has published several articles about using daily activities in your classroom. You can learn more by reading the following articles:

A Quotation a Day: Just What the Language Doctor Ordered

Journal Writing Every Day: Teachers Say It Really Works

Month of Fun
