| This page captures some of the tips, suggestions, ideas, and recommendations that teachers make to other teachers. This is open for students to read so that you can help the teachers to remember to do these things... 1. Smile 2. Breathe deeply. 3. Drink water. Run up 100 steps. Walk outside. 4. During the break from 10:40 to 11, the teachers usually go to the teachers' room to prepare for the next class. StuDents are in the comptuer room and near the coffee pot. Any staff member who is not a teacher should consider taking a break and wlking around, talking with students. 5. Attend the weekly "cultural discussion at Alex's house" each Wednesday, 954 524-0775, cell 954 288-4760, 1725 NE 7 Street, Fort Lauderdale, east of Federal, south of Sunrise, north of Broward, west of Victoria Park Road. [THIS WAS ACCURATE IN 2001... CALL TO SEE IF ALEX IS STILL LIVING HERE AND THAT HE WANTS YOU TO VISIT.] 6. Try to videotape students often. We can put the videos on video tape and CD rom and then other students can listen and transcribe the tapes. |
| Cary's suggestions for stretching the syllabus to slow down the consumption of New Interchange 1. are we using Mr. Richard's materials in the right way? If you speed up the metabolism to cover 2 units each week, do we affect the digestion? 2. use the workbooks created by Richards. 3. could a Murphy book or a set of Murphy books be cut up and laminated? For use by students over and over and save photocopying costs? 4. Integrate some homegrown items, such as handouts and videos that we made of other students. 5. use cassettes in a Language Lab way of monitoring student pronunciation. 6. Use mix and match cards, worksheet sthat include comprehension quesiton and short writing exercises conected ot the grammar points. 7. Check the spelling on web sites that Steve created (he has some problems with his typing!) 8. Create web sites by using the www.oocities.org/countries2001/instruction.html instruction sheet. |
