1
A-E-I-O-U (CDN Version) helps students interpret what they’ve viewed in a video asset by asking them to write about their thoughts next to the five descriptive categories that begin with each of the vowels: A= Adjective, E = Emotion, I = Interesting, O = Oh!, U = Um?
2
Vocabulary Scavenger Hunt (CDN Version) promotes active listening by asking students to clap and define vocabulary words they hear within Discovery Education video assets.
3
Three Truths and One Lie (CDN Version) helps students focus on the key idea in a video selection. After watching, they write three truths they hear and one lie they make up and then test one another to see who knows which is which.
4
Silence is Golden (CDN Version) deprives students of auditory input, redirecting their attention to the visual clues provided in a Discovery Education video segment. After viewing video without sound, students participate in active discussion that supports new understanding based on what they saw.
5
Table Top Texting (CDN Version) requires students to exercise critical thinking to analyze and discuss a video segment through written texts shared with one another.
6
MythBustin’ (CDN Version) mimics the scientific inquiry model used on the popular television show, Mythbusters. Students consider statements provided by the teacher and, through the exploration of a variety of resources, determine whether the statements are fact or fiction.
7
Snowball Fight (CDN Version) engages students in a lively game that encourages them to communicate the big ideas from a selected Discovery Education video. After watching the video, students write the big idea on paper, crumble it up, and toss it in a mock snowball fight.
