Introduction
This project is designed to let the students become the teachers and to teach the class learned material in a fun and creative way! Students will be broken up into groups of two to three and reviewing information that they will later be re-teaching the class for final implementation.
YOU ARE THE TEACHERS NOW!
Task
The objective is for the students to re-teach their group's specific information in a theatrical way, lead an activity that assesses student knowledge, and conduct an exit slip to serve as a post-assessment.
