10. Survey
Which of the following is an example of a creation
activity? (highest level of Anderson’s Taxonomy)
• Labeling a diagram with body part vocabulary.
• Using vocabulary words to write a personal
narrative.
• Reading a text and highlighting unknown words.
• Playing charades

11. Example 1: Jigsaw
Preparation:
• Create groups of four students and assign each group a
number
• Give each group an individual assignment.
▫ Example: Each group is given a vocabulary set
(weather, hobbies, sports) and must create a story
using the vocabulary words.
• After groups have had time to work, rearrange the
groups so that all new groups include exactly one
member from the original groups.
• Have students share their stories with the new group
members

12. Jigsaw Visual

13. Example 2: Gallery Walk
• Create spaces around the room
with questions or visual writing
prompts
• Allow the students to stand up
with their writing utensils and
make comments or respond to the
questions around the room
▫ You may provide them with sticky
notes or allow space on the posters
for the students to write directly on
the poster.
• Then, place them into small
groups to debrief or review the
activity

14. Pictionary
Directions:
• Place students in pairs or
teams and provide them with
a written or visual prompt.
• One person on each team is
the artist. The artist is not
allowed to see the prompt.
• The rest of the team
describes the prompt to the
artist while he or she tries to
draw what they hear.
• The team whose artist
completes their drawing
most accurately wins!

15. Other Ideas
• Role Play/Skits
• Debates
• Think-Pair-Share
