...Teach Like A Pirate Part 1 of Teach Like a Pirate is divided into 6 sections: Passion, Immersion, Rapport, Ask and Analyze, Transformation, and Enthusiasm. Passion can be divided into content passion, professional passion and personal passion. A teacher who is fully immersed in the moment has a special type of intensity that resonates with great power in the classroom, regardless of the activity. Building rapport is all about interacting with your students as fellow human beings, not just subordinates. Rapport is important because it helps create buy-in. Ask and Analyze says that if you consistently ask questions that lead to creative and outside-the-box thinking, your mind will provide you with creative and outside-the-box answers. The Honda Odyssey example is so true! Transformation deals with reframing. A teachers job is to create a mental paradigm shift by reframing the content and its value and relevancy to their lives. Enthusiasm is contagious. Your attitude carries with it your single most powerful tool to influence your classroom. Part 2 of Teach Like a Pirate discusses crafting engaging lessons. I learned many ideas from Dave Burgess’ hooks. I liked “Move It, Move It”. It encourages kinesthetic activities in the classroom. We do a lot of music and movement in Kindergarten. I have also used the “People Prop” hook by having groups make human letters with their bodies. (ex: making the letter A by laying on the floor) The “Picasso” hook is used...

The first technique we are going to cover is rapport building. The definition of rapport is the development of a close and harmonious relationship in which two or more people understand each other and can communicate well. Most people try to build rapport by being nice to someone, followed by a sharing of common experiences. By doing this you’re saying, people like people like themselves, and these are the reasons I’m like you. These common techniques can work some of the time but definitely not all of the time.

When you are with someone you trust, you may not notice, but you are naturally mirroring him or her.

...1z NV-rapport Lærere: nv-ke: JS & nv-bi: LK Elevnr. 10 Navn: Tania Rehmat Chauhan | Aflevering: Fredag 13/12-2013 senest kl. 9.30 på inspektorkontoret til HL eller AJ NV Bi-Ke rapport Indledning Det overordnede tema i det naturvidenskabelige grundforløb har været klima, hvorved vi har haft nogle fokusfag – biologi og kemi. Nv biologi og Nv kemi har haft det samme undertema, hvilket er læren om jordens atmosfære og dens betingelse for liv. Begge fag har fokuseret på drivhuseffekten og drivhusgasser, dog med et syn fra både den biologiske og kemiske verden. I biologi har formålet været at forstå livet betydning. Uden liv på jorden ville klimaet ikke havde forvrænget sig, som det har gjort i dag. På jorden er der en naturlig drivhuseffekt, som er med til at jordens gennemsnitstemperatur ligger på 15 grader i stedet for -18 grader. Der er også en menneskeskabt drivhuseffekt, som kommer fra al den afbrænding af kul og olie, hvilket har skabt vores industri samfund i dag. Følgerne af alt den afbrænding er dog blevet kritiske, da ved afbrænding bliver kullet eller olien til CO2 og vanddamp. Hernæst blander CO2 sig med atmosfæren. Konflikten opstår når solen sender sine varmestråler ned mod jorden. CO2 og andre drivhusgasser absorberer størstedelen af varmen og på længere sigt varmere kloden op. Vi har blandt andet arbejdet med nogle forsøg vedr. fotosyntesens lysafhængighed – herunder flaskehaven. Vi har også lagt...
