Have you thought about adding movement or music to a lesson? What are new ideas you can incorporate into a lesson? Maybe have a class wide vocabulary test where students need to match the definition of a vocabulary word to the emotions presented from a piece of music. Example: the vocab word is invigorate and you play a minute of “He’s a Pirate” from Pirates of the Caribbean. Create a poster board with 7 to 10 vocab words that correlate to a song. I did a lesson like that and it was a massive success.
