"The best advice I can offer is this: Know and understand the difference between 'teaching' and 'learning.' If your focus and passion is on 'learning' you have a future in the classroom. If your focus is on 'teaching' then stay out of the classroom and look to management or administration." - Tim Klassen, Director of Ontario College Quality Assurance Service

Give students "clues" to look for items in the classroom that relate to your topic of study. Put students on a "scavenger hunt". Once they find the item, they must explain why it is on the scavenger hunt. Let students go on a road trip. Place different stop signs around the school or classroom with an activity or reading passage. Students must "travel" to each place and complete the activity (idea courtesy of Beaver Elementary). Give students a "passport" that must be stamped at each "stop" on their trip.
