Description
Ready to bring fun back into the classroom? Try Fun Friday activities! Many teachers feel there is not enough time (or energy) to do something fun because the curriculum is on overload, too many assessments and time in the schedule is a hot commodity.
Implementing FUN Friday into your week will help you GET STUFF DONE while your students are learning important 21st-century skills.
I’ve tried to make these stations as stress-free and no hassle as possible. Just print the station cards or assign the digital interactive notebooks, and enjoy time with your students while they learn about The Design Process.
