1 Classroom Idea That Got ALL Kids Participating- And All You Need is a Potato!?

Have you ever tried something in your classroom and thought, “That was really silly, but it TOTALLY worked!”

I find myself saying that the most when I am using toys to teach.

Because the reality is that toys can actually be really powerful tools in education!

In this week’s episode of the This Teacher Life podcast we tackle how one, really unexpected throwback toy, transformed a lesson.

This activity got all kids participating, all kids laughing, all kids sharing, and was SO much fun!

Spoiler alert: you don’t even need to buy or own the toy to make this lesson happen.

That means it is no prep and therefore it is a teacher win!
