Sticky Notes To Help Understand Twitter



2

This week, I watched a science teacher use sticky notes in a very creative way. To check for understanding, the teacher gave each student a sticky note and asked each of her science students to give concrete examples of the vocabulary that they had learned in class. As the students exited the classroom, they placed the sticky note on the door. To start, you will need a smooth wall, a marker and Post-it® Super Sticky Notes 3 in x 3 in — one color for each member of your team. Start by evenly spacing three Post-it® Notes of the same color across the top of your poster board. Write “To-Do” on the first, “Doing” on the second and “Done” on the third.

Introduction

A popular science demonstration shows that when you overlap the pages of two phone books, they are nearly impossible to pull apart. Since most people do not have two phone books sitting around, we will show you how you can do the same experiment with sticky notes. Sticky notes are much smaller than phone books, so they should be easy to pull apart, right? Try this activity to find out!
