Word bank warm-up
Use flash cards to build a word bank of describing words like caring, funny and brave before kids write. Post them on the board. Kids write stronger cards when the words are right there.
Why it works: pairing a picture with each word gives kids two ways to remember it, a well-tested principle of how people learn (Mayer, 2009).
