“May the road rise to meet you, May the wind be always at your back, May the sun shine warm upon your face, The rains fall soft upon your fields, And until we meet again, May God hold you  in the palm of His hand .” **(an old Irish blessing)**

A SMALL GROUP/ WHOLE CLASS ACTIVITY DEMONSTRATING BLOOM'S TAXONOMY. Plan on about 30 minutes for the Green ppt. activity. Show slide-by-slide, giving students 5-10 minutes to create their own lists and go to each step, etc. (The topic can be anything, really.) It's just to get students in small groups to brainstorm ideas, and learn how to categorize and organize information. We even made a competition out of it, kind of, by who could come up with the longest list, the most creative answers, and most importantly: the widest variety of categories. End products on large paper or posters, were then displayed.
