Lateral Thinking Puzzles

Lateral Thinking Puzzles

(4)
These lateral puzzles have been around for many years in one form or another and they are a great way to encourage discussion, thinking and creativity. Also once you know them, you can bring them in at a moment's notice, but before using them make sure you know a few, because just occasionally a student can solve it instantly. They can be displayed on an electronic Whiteboard from the Website or you can use the PDF for printing out and handouts. In a Special needs environment they can help students to think about literal and lateral meanings.

Secret Body Language Exercise

In this exercise two people have to say the same script, but try through body-language to convey different messages. Hilarious and really shows how much people communicate through non-verbal communication.

This encourages students to think about what they are good at, what they need to improve on, the opportunities available to them and what might stop them achieving them. Very handy for PSHE, Drama or Business studies.

Assembly - World Wide Competition

Assembly - World Wide Competition

(0)
This assembly was to encourage year 10 to 11 who were feeling lethargic and just felt they were doing good enough. In this assembly, I show just how hard students in other parts of the world are working to get into a UK university. It had a very strong impact on my students and really helped them to understand why everyone wants them to work hard for their grades.

This is a very interesting lesson that I used with students going to do work experience and learning BTEC, but it could be used with a wide range of age groups and could easily be adapted for adults too.
How do we connect to the internet?

How do we connect to the internet?

(0)
There is a lot of jargon on how we connect to the Internet and this fully animated presentation shows you exactly how we connect to the Internet as a story. By making a story this is now suitable for students from Key Stage 2 - 5 and brings all the jargon together in a meaningful way. (Highly recommended for teaching iGCSE Internet technologies). The words have been minimized to make more accessible for students with limited vocabulary.
