3 thoughts on “Card Talk Option”
This is great! I’ve spun stories off Card Talk plenty of times, but formalizing a procedure here is good. Simple. Giving every student a chance to be the subject of attention and to pepper them with the love that comes from creating a fantastical story about them – it’s game on after that.
My classes are small… we already did a round of favorite activities. I want to do another round of Card Talk but on a different topic. Last year I remember trying 1) a job you would like to have in the future, and 2) a superpower you wish you had. There might have been another. I don’t remember. I wonder what other topics I could have them draw. I guess I could do another round of a favorite activity, as time has passed. Or, a scary moment in your life?
Pets. No pun intended for the French teachers….
I did student drawings for summer too! Anne’s twist of creating two versions is nice! I have spun off stories from simple questions like “What did you do over the weekend” then we launch into a story with permission from the student. The student actually becomes professor two. For card talk , I would also do Favorite Food.
