School is out for the summer and this is typically when I find time to reflect and blog. It was a fabulous year and I can honestly say probably one of my most enjoyable ones in my entire teaching career but also one of my most exhausting. Out of all the activities I had students use in order to show their understanding, the one I am happiest with was my choice menu for our inquiry into water. There were five topics a group was responsible for understanding and they had a choice of nine items they could do as products such as a breaking news video about the topic, a song, an editorial, a monologue, a cartoon, an interview OR a product of their own choosing done with my permission. I had them post all of their products on a Padlet and I’m thrilled with the results.
Definitely something I will keep and refine for next year.
