What do you do when nothing seems to work? Turn to
Surviving Last Period on Fridays and Other Desperate Situations
. This popular book is full of language arts games and activities that are interesting, challenging, and educational—never busy work.
Many teachers believe that two of the games alone are worth the price of the book. “Newspaper Scavenger Hunt” and “Holiday Challenge” are lively learning activities that students love. They are just right for the two or three days right before a vacation.
The two kinds of activities included are:
activities that you can photocopy for your own personal use and pass out to your students; and
activities that need some advance preparation, usually minimal.
Surviving Last Period on Fridays and Other Desperate Situations
is perfect for junior high/middle school, and most games are suitable or adaptable for high school students as well.
