When there is a teacher absence, rarely is there time to plan significant learning activities, so too often "busywork" becomes the assignment for the day. This book solves that problem by suggesting ideas for meaningful, short-term classroom activities, with an emphasis on the processes of speaking, listening, and writing in the classroom. Many of the activities include reproducible artwork in an 8 1/2" X 11" format. 45 pp. 1989. Grades 7-12. ISBN 0-8141-4877-8. No. 48778 |
