Subtraction Bowling has been a great success in my classroom and I'm delighted to share this engaging and motivating activity with you. It's proof that you don't need fancy tools or expensive materials to make learning fun. As we approach the last days of school, it is important to remember to provide our students with structure and meaningful activities to keep them engaged. Even though the marks have closed, we owe it to our students to remind them of the importance of following through with classroom rules and responsibilities. Through Subtraction Bowling, I've been able to provide my students with an enjoyable, hands-on experience that will help them with their subtraction skills.
The key takeaway here is that education doesn't always have to be boring. With a little creativity, you can develop activities that are engaging and that your students will have fun with. And, while we have to do what is best for our students, don't forget to have a little fun too. After all, laughter and joy are just as important as learning. As Confucius said, “Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life.”
With all this going on I can't forget to mention how some of my students have already checked out and are already in summer mode. I am sure you can all relate to this! It has been a challenge keeping them engaged and in self-control. Each day we still need to remind students about responsibilities and how important it is to follow through with classroom rules right up until the last day. Keeping students busy with fun-filled but meaningful activities is crucial even though marks have already closed. I learned from experience that if you give the students too much free choice time, they just can't handle it and things start spiraling out of control. Kids just need some sense of structure even though there are only just a few days left. I will do my best to stick to the same schedule that they are used to.
