Recipe for Revolution

Amber Llewellyn
Amber Llewellyn over 1 year ago

I had my students complete the Recipe for a Revolution activity. They had fun coming up with the ingredients needed for the Revolution, and it was a break from some of our other activities. They got creative with their steps, and watching their imagination come out was fun. I always look for fun and engaging ways for my students to engage with the material. I also did an activity that had the students make some of the leaders of the various revolutions into superheroes—anything to avoid the dreaded worksheets.

    Thanks for sharing this image Amber Llewellyn , I actually included it in my notes on the topic! I love using this activity and am planning on comparing it to making apple pie (since that's my signature recipe).

    Amber Llewellyn thank you for sharing! Your students will certainly remember these activities over "the dreaded worksheet" :) 

    If the students are engaged, they are learning. Sounds like you are on the right track, and I am totally stealing the super-hero idea for next semester.

    If it were my activity, I would love to share it, but I got it from someone else.

    Amber Llewellyn I am excited to try it next semester. I teach Big History so I have to wait.
