They all became Pokémon Trainer. They search for printed quizzes with a picture of Pokémon. They by solving the quiz, they will get code for them to key into a webpage containing the picture of a Pokémon. They then just do a screen shot to "catch" the Pokémon.
There are altogether 16 creatures (common errors in vocabulary) in 32 sheets for them to find and catch. I am surprised that my class could catch a majority in 30
Min. My previous experience with my class last year (higher ability - although the quiz is tougher) , is most can only solve 6-7 quizzes
Some told me there are 2 ways to do this. 1 way is to just find the words in the grid of vocabularies and key in the code without looking for the quiz. (Previous year cohort can't do this, as their quizzes contain tougher and multiple answers). Another person told me he "hacked" the system. He said he saw the similarities with the webpages ended with the word q1, q2 etc and he extrapolate it and found the rest.
Smart! I realise the second method while adding more quizzes yesterday, but thought the kids won't be so smart. I am happily wrong.
There is also another group of pupils who sobatage others by hiding the quizzes they found. I told them that is unethical and selfish.
I also told the kids they might be quick to finish the task but miss the important point of revising of vocabulary for those who "hack" the system.
Then, came the interesting part. I told them find the fastest way to get the whole group to have the same number of pokemons as the top catcher.
Many were frantically sharing answers. 2 groups
Just took photos of the best performer and got it done in minutes. Brilliant. I threw the same challenge to last year cohort and no one thought of that. Maybe they are too honest. LOL. Sorry, I know many in my fraternality will frown and say I am teaching them to cheat. It's ok. To me, it's important to think Out of the box and as long as u dun harm anyone, it might pays to be unique and think differently.
I am not sure if this group is naturally more "streetsmart" or my focus on "thinking skills" are having a impact. LOL
You sure are having fun!
ReplyDeleteYup, it was quite fun. A fair bit of prep work. Almost wanted to just give it a miss. Lucky I didn't. It was kinda of a energizer.
