The Power of Power pix

At school we are really enthusiactic about "Power Pixs" because these correspond to content standers in both math and language.

At the moment, I use them to work on English Language arts and Social and Natural Science as these are the subjects I teach.

Power Pixs are placed on the wall and used frequently after they have been taught using the 5 step lesson (Check out the post: Where dreams come home). 
They contain a question, an answer, a gesture, and a picture that students can associate with gesture. 

This process activates the whole brain because we are hearing, saying, seeing and doing.

How do I do this?

I show the picture and make a question "What is an adjective?"

Students answer with gestures: "An adjective changes a noun."

This is a poster of my English Language Arts Power Pics taught at school this year.

As I said before, I also teach Social and Natural Science. I have created my own power pixs. Have a look a this one.

The results are amazing and I can see a better comprehention and we can recall contents over and over again.
