Instagram for your classroom

Using Instagram on your classroom.


This will be the first teaching idea by Teacher's Path. Have a nice reading, everyone.

Okay, Talking about Intagram nowadays, everyone knows how to operate it.
Everyone knows how to post and give "Love" or comment in this kind of social media.

Yes,
Instagram is one of famous social medias nowadays instead of Facebook and Twitter.
As an up to date teacher, you need to use this Instagram in your classroom, teacher.
Wow, you will easily get student's interest.

Student in this millenium era, they really like to post and give "Love" on Instagram.
DON'T think that your students do not have this kind of thing.
They have it, Trust me.

Instead of teaching only used whiteboard, books and laptop, you can use this application to teach in your classroom.
You can use instagram in the beginning of your lesson, as a main activity or as an closing session.
That's all up to you.

Let's take one example. We want to teach "Descriptive Text" to the students. It of course will talk about "describing person or something".
You are the one who knows well about the level of your students, so, think it well, what is the right and perfect one for your students.

Let's have "describing person" as an example.
You can ask your students to open their Instagram, and find their favorite artist that they followed.
My own opinion, they will enjoy this activity and try to find the best picture for them.

After that, ask them to describe it .
Of course, in the beginning section, you already introduce them how to describe someone.

To make it more modern,ask them to posttheir description of that person.
Ask the students to repost the picture complete with their description, and don't forget to ask them to tag that post on you Instagram account.
So, you will easily make an evaluation and give feedback of their work.

It will be fun, I think.
But, don't forget to always monitor your students from any adult thing.
You also need to check you school's wi-fi before doing this activity, Okay?

Further, I have another lesson plan or teaching idea here.
If we already talk about "Describing Person", I have full package of "Describing Scenery" on this Download link.

 Download

That lesson plan can be modified as teacher want. It is just one idea to create your own creativity in teaching.

Okay, That' all about the first lesson plan, on Using Instagram for your classrom.
I hope it help you on finding your own path in teaching.
