Favorite TeacherTube Video

My favorite TeacherTube video this week is "11 Yr Old Power Teaching! Amazing!" Whenever I mention using revision strategies, groans abound. Too many of my students write, hand it in, and never want to see it again. The topic of this video is writing a strong-verb paragraph, something I've been working on with my high school students. As we began evaluating weak-verb paragraphs in class last week, I was met with silence. I've never tried the Power Teaching approach nor have I had students lead the discussion. I'll be trying both this week! : )
