I'm starting to think about engaging lessons to begin the school year, and I was doing a little reminiscing. Last year, I was fortunate enough to recruit Evan Liab, the music teacher in my building, to write a song about the acceptable use policy. We discussed the important parts of the policy for students, and he took those concepts and created lyrics and music! What a talented fellow! I taught the nuts and bolts of the policy, and he taught the students the song during his music classes. To culminate our learning, the students created their own music video. Each grade choreographed their own dance and I tried to put it all together (disclaimer: my video editing skills need work). Here was our final product.
How do you teach about the acceptable use policy? Share your ideas in the comments below!
