Bouncy Balls

The website bouncyballs.org is a simple and quick way to do several things.

1. If you need a way to quiet your kids to get class started. Project this site and let them know that class cannot start if they are triggering "too noisy" or "shhhh".

2. When working on dribbling skills you could set the sensitivity low and have the students attempt to trigger notifications.

3. During dance or other movement activities to music, use the site to visualize the music, both for hearing impaired students, as well as students who may find the visual helpful in developing their rhythm.

4. During a unit on rhythm, using either drum fit or other "drumming" options, utilize the website to help students visualize their synchronization.

    PDF to 4 Page (or Larger) Poster

    Discussion 
    If you have a pdf that you'd like to enlarge, you can do so right from within Adobe Reader. Here's how: Go to "Print", then choose "Poster": Next, set the scale to "200%" for 4 pages (experiment for larger) and I prefer no overlap, so set it to 0: PRINT!!

    Human Bingo from Jonathan Alsheimer

    Discussion 
    This cool "Human Bingo" game can be used to spice up review and as an opportunity for formative feedback. Video explanation: bit.ly/2QKyatl It was shared by Jonathan Alsheimer (@mr_Alsheimer) and can be used for just about any topic! Get creative! I have created a spreadsheet to make setting up the game fast and easy. Just enter your questions and answers and the sheet sets up the slips that students put in each Bingo box, as well generates a random question order. Here's the spreadsheet: http://bit.ly/2uFazlb
