Course Collage - Principled Approach to Warm Up Design - In-Service V, 2018

Course Collage


1) In your Mimio presentation use the screenclipping function to prepare a photomontage of images and words from the previous 4 weeks of classes. Include clippings of images from previous Mimo exercises, any worksheets, diagrams, or handouts you created, and even still images from any videos you projected. Also include memorable words and phrases that came up in the lessons. You can personalize it to include other things that happened in the classroom that were not directly related to the content of the book such as a birthday celebration, a joke someone said, or some other thing that will remind students of a classroom anecdote.

2) Before projecting the photomontage ask students to make pairs or trios and mention several memorable moments from the course so far. Then project photomontage and have students discuss the following questions: What items do you remember? What were we doing when we saw that item? What items look unfamiliar? What do you think they might refer to? What memories do you have of the course that are not represented here?


3) After a few minutes, ask for a few volunteers to share their answers to some of their questions.


Sample Course Collages



Use your handout as a reference to answer these questions:

-Does this warm up fit into one or more of the five categories? 
-What function(s) does this warm up serve?
-What principles are present/missing?
-How might you adapt, improve, or expand upon this warm up?
