11.4 Accuracy Activity: Be a Mind Reader
To prepare To prepare: Choose 6-8 words to be displayed from current concept. Devise 5 clues for ONE word before working with students (on slide). Clue #1 should always be: The word I m thinking of is displayed here. Clues #2, 3, and 4 should target ORTHOGRAPHIC concepts within that word (e.g., this word has a blend/digraph, etc.) Clue #5 should always target the word s meaning with a student friendly definition. The first 3-4 clues should match other word choices to be displayed, so that the target word is not immediately guessed. Rather, choices are narrowed down before clue #5. Or use provided clues on hidden slides
