Correspondence

• Early, Early Welcome Email -I send this to students as soon as they enroll in the class (sometimes months before the semester even starts).

• Welcome Email -warm message sent to students before the semester begins - offering key information and tips to help them start off strong.

• Early Intervention Email -message intended for students experiencing challenges in the course, designed to offer assistance in supporting their success.

Assignments/Activities

• Jeopardy Template -free template so you can create a jeopardy game for any topic you can think of.

• Escape Room Puzzle -students work together to solve for the correct answers based on the clues provided. This handout is based on a managerial accounting topic (absorption and variable costing methods). Slide and certificate available as well as the solution file.

• “Strands” Puzzle -borrowed from the New York Times Strands Puzzle (which has been described as a word search with a twist), this exercise helps students review key terms for the Plant Assets chapter. I normally have them work on this before we start on the chapter.
