Keywords:
Benefits, personalization, image sharing, ask the right question, word questions.Abstract
As a teacher, we know the benefits of these mandatory classes to student learning, but we also know that student learning does not happen without their buy-in. Not only must our lessons be meaningful, but students must value them and provide them with a practical connection to what they already know. We developed a warm-up activity that allows students to connect their lessons and see their learning as meaningful in their lives.
