Activators: Activity Structures to Engage Student's Thinking Before Instruction

by Jon Saphier, Mary Ann Haley

This book is a collection of classroom-tested, practical activity structures for getting students' minds active and engaged prior to introducing new content or skills. Each structure is designed to elicit what students already know about a topic, to surface misconceptions, and to create cognitive hooks when new material is presented.
