9. Empires in East Asia: Engaging Micro Lessons Activity Bundle

Description

Micro Lessons: I organized these lessons to increase engagement in my classroom by having smaller assignments in different formats. I thought this would help keep students engaged longer. What I didn’t expect was for it to make teaching more enjoyable for me. By breaking a lesson into 3-5 parts with different activities, teaching is more enjoyable.  Students say the class period seems to go by fast!

Micro Lessons are 15-20 Minute partial lessons over smaller sections of a lesson.
