This week's Hook of the Week from Teach Like a PIRATE by Dave Burgess is The Chef Hook.
The Chef Hook
Dave mentions that he's always looking for ways to make his class memorable and enjoyable. Using food and drinks from time to time is one of his tactics.
Consider these questions when planning for this hook...
- How can I enhance this lesson by adding food or drinks?
- Can I cook something for the class?
- What type of food would be a perfect match for this lesson?
- How can I use food or drinks to demonstrate a point, serve as an incentive, or just help create a positive atmosphere for a special lesson?
In what ways might you use The Chef Hook to engage your students or adult learners?
