134 ¦ Principle 5: The CI Class Yearbook

from The Motivated Classroom · host Dr. Liam Printer

Principle Five of Six for a Motivated Year in the 'Back to School' series:Principle 5: The CI Class YearbookThis episode builds on the previous principles about effective pairwork and input in 5-minute blocks by taking it further and each student having a notebook where every student in the class gets a page. Students write matching bullet points in pairs, filling in each person's page gradually throughout the year. Every time we have conversations, discussions and input tasks with PQA it gives us more info to put on their page! A great way to build community, raise feelings of autonomy and competence, and to provide you with a track record of everything you learned about each other all year.You'll learn about:📄 Building a class yearbook with a personal page for each student🧩 Add details in matching pairs🤝 Learn about each other, build real connection📈 Supports formative assessment🧠 Boosts autonomy & motivation (hello Köhler + Zeigarnik–Ovsiankina!)📆 Runs all year longWhether you’re just heading back to school or already half way through the year, this episode is another step towards a motivated language classroom! 💪🎓Don't miss the last of the six principles which are on the way next Friday6.
