Instructional Ideas
  • Post the infographics and vocabulary words on a Mental Health-themed wall
  • Display the dioramas in the classroom and around the school
Classroom Considerations
  • Requires a long list of supplies not typically found in the classroom (baseball glove, bowling ball, and plastic fruit, for example); set aside extra prep time to make copies, load videos, and collect materials
Pros
  • The plan is comprehensive and carefully scaffolded
Cons
  • The link to the diorama snap guide does not work
