Foldables

Instructor: Brian Scully, Starpoint Middle School 210-2203 ext. 5604, bscully@starpointcsd.org

Foldables are hands on, graphic organizers, that 'chunk' information for students and helps them remember the content. Foldables are part of the Brain Based Research associating movements and activities with content and learning. [|Brainigami-Presentation.ppt] You'll find links to Brain Based Learning and Foldables Research in the 'Resources' section at the bottom.
