What happens when teachers put students in charge? Success? Chaos? In this episode, Cody shares a two-day lesson he uses with his 7th grade ELA class. He challenges each class period to function as a team to storyboard a short play. Each class period “competes” against the others to create a sense of friendly competition and urgency. The feature of the lesson is to provide very little answers on how to accomplish the collective goal; this ensures that students help each other and solve problems together.
