| contents | The Magic of Mini-Lessons Lombardo, Mary A. Teaching Methods Learning Activities Lesson Plans Units of Study Feedback School Libraries Making magic in the classroom or library media center is as simple as imitating what choreographers do. Just as they demonstrate and teach a dance routine a few steps at a time before asking the performers to put all the steps together for a presentation, many teachers find that breaking a unit of study into several parts, or mini-lessons, is a meaningful way to introduce subject matter and apply the data to real-life situations--one step at a time. By using mini-lessons, presenting lessons and getting feedback can take many forms, each form emphasizing a different life skill and learning style along with the subject matter. In addition, the brevity of the mini-lessons keeps students' interests high so teachers can move the class through the curriculum in an exciting way. Short, meaningful presentations or mini-lessons also benefit the library media specialist, who has only a limited amount of time to work with students. In this article, the author discusses several strategies for introducing mini-lessons to classrooms. |
