Assessment
“My students enjoyed giving their opinions about the topics to each other and trying to change each other's minds. They also enjoyed the way the choice board was set up.”
“The main thing that I enjoyed is that I had to do next to nothing to set it up, just made a copy and pulled it up in Google Classroom! The activities were rigorous to prepare them for state testing and will be vital for language development starting next year. The students were all engaged and on task when working with each other. A teacher cannot ask for more!”
