This month we’re focusing on Choice Boards! Choice Boards are a fun way to provide learners with options and self-efficacy throughout the learning process. We’ve created our choice boards for kids using Google Slides to make them easy to copy, edit and share - especially if your district uses Google Classroom.
Each of our student choice boards contain three slides:
The first slide gives context about the resources and how to use them.
The second slide includes directions for students (that you can edit).
The third slide is the choice board itself.
We recommend you do the following before sharing the choice bard with kids:
Go through every resource yourself - while we think they are great for the selected grade span, you know your learners better than we do. Swap out resources as you see fit.
Hide/delete the first slide.
Share with students using “preview mode.”
Here’s the link to the choice board for middle school learners. (Note: this link will force you to make your copy). Please check the other sections of this month’s newsletter for more choice boards for different grade spans!
