Antibullying with iMessages
Anti-bullying is such a buzz-word in schools now- how do you get your students to be friends?
1. In honor of MLK Day, my students listened to the I Have a Dream Speech on YouTube. When it was over, they clapped. It was awe-inspiring.
Then, I did a lesson with my students about using iMessages to express emotions. They learned how iMessages can express happy, sad, excited, or angry emotions, and we practiced them in different situations.
Using iMessages as a sentence frame is great for ELL's because it gives them the freedom to choose their own emotions while taking away the anxiety of producing a full sentence. You could use this with special education or speech therapy students, as well. I just uploaded this lesson and activity to TPT, and you can find it here.
