The Objective:

Students pick a meme they feel represents their learning of your topic then explain the relationship.

​

There are two ways to play.

​

First, you can allow students to pick a meme (from a digital or printed supply) and explain verbally how it relates to their mastery of the topic.

​

Alternately, you can distribute these written versions for students to complete and turn in.

​

Either approach lets students quickly create meaning out of what you've just taught, and the brief whole-class share-and-discuss time gives you quick, useful feedback about how much they're really understanding.  The relevance and interest-level of memes makes this a particularly useful strategy.

​

​

We even used Meme Me in staff development to reflect on our implementation of some Teach Like a Champion strategies!
