Episode 74: 12 (or so) Ideas to Keep Fast Finishers Occupied

We all have them: those students who finish a task before everyone else.  How can you keep them engaged and occupied?  If you think the answer is doing an extra worksheet, you've come to the right place because that is DEFINITELY NOT on this list!  We can do better than that: give your students challenges; make them think; get them moving; give them room to breathe; all of the above. My challenge to you this week is to choose a couple of things from this list and try them out in your class.  Let me know how it goes. If you're wondering what happened to my next episode on reflection, it's coming soon, I promise!  Theme music by @sean.cass (Instagram).  Contact me: ⁠[email protected]⁠ Like, share, DM me and follow me on Instagram @https://www.instagram.com/everythingeflteacher/ and on Facebook @https://www.facebook.com/groups/everythingeflteacherdevelopment  Subscribe to Youtube @Everything EFL for teaching tip videos and full podcast episodes with Closed Captions.  Connect with me on LinkedIn @ https://www.linkedin.com/in/erin-o-byrne-90b58a55/  Subscribe to the podcast on Spotify, Google Podcasts, Apple.... and don’t forget to tell your colleagues.
