Show and Tell

Students present a meaningful object or photo, share its story, and answer questions. Also called: Structured Experience Sharing.

Procedure

1. Students bring an object or photo that is meaningful to them.
2. Introduction: identify the object (30 seconds).
3. Story: explain its background and significance (2-3 min).
4. Q&A: classmates ask follow-up questions (1-2 min).

Tips

• Model the activity yourself first to set expectations and reduce anxiety.
• Establish respectful listening ground rules before starting.
• Allow "virtual" show and tell (photos on phone) when physical objects are impractical.
