Spent some time yesterday working on materials for 3 CPD events which are taking place between now and the middle of February.
One of the resources is linked to a Nintendo DS game called Imagine:Teacher
Here are the exciting activities that you can take part in if you play the game.
- Increase your students' knowledge with fun mini games to allow them to enjoy school!
- Teach them writing, biology, maths, history and geography - wonder what's on the geography curriculum ?
- Develop their artistic skills: music, drawing, pottery...
- Help your students find their true vocation - a bit of careers advice too ?
- Pay attention to your students' behaviours to manage their mood & create the best learning atmosphere - preferred learning styles ?
- All kids have their own personalities & favourite subjects: literature, chatting, science: position them wisely in the classroom to prevent them for chatting, being distracted or doing messing around
- Create the school of your dreams
- Upgrade your school - introduce some sort of selection ?
- Play as the teacher: give your lessons while paying attention to your classroom
- Play as the pupils: do as much foolishness as possible each time the teacher doesn't have their eye on you!
I noticed today that there is a companion game to the Imagine : Teacher game which allows you to experience some learning outside the classroom.
Here is what this game promises...
Participate in thrilling outdoors activities with your pupils and discover all about nature.
- Become the most beloved teacher ever
- Care for your pupils and help them get the best experience they can
- Grade kids' work, keep them quiet and attentive, and scold the distracted ones
- Experience an unforgettable school trip with your class
- Enjoy lots of exciting outdoor activities, from forests to lakes
- Care for your pupils while they are away from their parents so that they are the happiest they can be
- Develop a real team spirit to boost your results
- Discover about nature
- Collect rare plants and souvenirs during the trip
So, here's the deal...
Imagine you're designing the game NINTENDO DS: "Imagine : Geography Teacher"
