Ripping up books?I know it sounds mad, and I was appalled at first when I came across this.
But I like the idea behind it. Especially splitting students off into groups and getting them to learn a chapter of a book each, then retelling the story in order back to the class.With the creation of e-books, this could be a lot easier to implement and also give pupils the chance to add their own creative spin to a book.
Great idea. :)
Aha, I worked out why this had so many people see it. It was featured on “Education”.
Awesome :D
Although that still doesn’t explain why it also appeared on people’s dashboards when they weren’t following this blog but oh well.
