Openers are activities that help students get ready for heavy duty studying and for learning how to learn new information easily. They help students focus their attention. Catchers allow students to “pause” during a unit of study, then reflect on the kinds of thinking needed for what has just been presented. Short, fun activities help bring the mind to a quiet-alert learning state. Attention to the human element - the learner - produces great classroom products.
