Note-Taking & Detective Clues
To make note-taking a little more fun and engaging, I have students watch a Nancy Drew mystery and take notes like a detective. Today we watched The Ghostwriters' Cruise and students gathered all of the clues, details, information and suspicions they could. Some of them collected a full page, front and back, and I'll take this as a win! Even students who don't love to write put in an excellent effort, trying hard to decide who was MOST suspicious and the likely culprit.

One Wish
If you could wish ANY resource into being, what would you like to magically appear? Is it a lesson on a certain topic? Is it an activity with high student-engagement? Or maybe and entire unit that's ready made and all you need to do is execute. Tell me!
