This week's Hook of the Week from Teach Like a PIRATE by Dave Burgess is The Board Message Hook.

The Board Message Hook is an incredible way to pique the curiosity of your learners before the lesson even begins. This hook works for adult learners, too!

Just think...

• What can you write on your board or have projected that will immediately spark curiosity and interest as the students/learners enter your room?
• What type of message will create buzz before the bell even rings?
• Could you place a QR code on the screen and see who scans it?
• What about projecting an intriguing image that will eventually tie into your content?

Want to take your next lesson to a new level?

How might you use The Board Message Hook in your learning setting?
