A7: Maybe instead of a painting or drawing in the style of a certain artist, a student could research about them, create a poem, or sing about them. #SCSDChat

A6: All menu activities are non-digital (I have 11 laptops & 26-28 students per class) Students get to chose which activities they want to work on and when. as long as they have completed enough points and have included the 2 required activities. #SCSDChat

Q5: I would tell them that I have seen a decrease in behaviors, because they are in control and it's at their level. #SCSDChat

@jhawa315 I have student "masters " to help when I can't. I also have a sketchbook with mini anchor charts and a binder of interactive notebook examples.

A3: Students use their data from our weekly quizzes and pick 2 standards to work on for their menus, one they're good at and one they need to improve. This helps keep them interested in what they're working on. #SCSDChat

[April Thorpe @AprilThorpe8]

A2: They use DreamBox daily and chart their progress for each lesson on the wall. They also chart their progress towards completing the standards at each grade level. #SCSDChat

A3: They use weekly quizes to set their goals for the next quiz, a standard that they feel needs improvement, & one they're good at. They also track their progress in each standard on DreamBox #SCSDChat
