During the month of January, I needed to do middle-of-year running records on my 60 students. Yes, this is time-consuming. I needed a way for students to be able to work independently so I could get my assessments completed.
I designed a choice chart as a culminating activity for our nonfiction unit. All students must complete the activity in the middle and then choose 2 other ones. The activity in the middle uses leveled Social Studies readers, so that activity matches each student's reading level. The other activities are based on multiple learning styles. I included activities with drawing, singing, writing, reading, poetry, vocabulary, text structure, main idea, and technology. There is a little something for everyone!
Students could work with small groups, partners, or independently.
As students completed their activities they posted the name of the activity on the Parking Lot.
