As I go on integrating modern technology in teaching my students, I realized that they should also be taught through other ways like role playing or having group collaboration or group activities.
Before presenting my PowerPoint Presentation about my lesson in angles and triangles, I let my students developed a short skit/role play about our topic. I grouped them into four groups (two groups presented about a story on angles and the other two groups presented about a story of triangles), I assigned them before hand to developed their own script to be presented three days before our topic is to be discussed.
Voila! I didn't expect that all of the groups presented a very enjoyable and interesting stories and acted as a true actor and actresses with matching props and etc. After their presentation, we have critiquing for them to make improvements if they will be given another chance of role playing.
All my students enjoyed during and after the presentations. And so with other year levels 'cause due to the extended time that we had, other students have witnessed the role playing of my Geometry Class (III - Pilot).
I hope other teachers will also find time to apply such kind of motivation for the students to explore on their own. As they go on developing their script they are also studying at the same time through researching what they will have to know for their presentations.
