Re: Activities After Assignments
Posted by CTJS on 4/29/08

    Having students finish early is always a challenge. You want
    to walk the fine line between something that the students
    won't feel like they are punished for finishing early or
    something that is so good that the students who haven't yet
    finished rush through their work (or lie and say that they
    are done) to do.

    When I use Scholastic Keys, one of the features is MaxPaint
    so I will frequently have the students make a picture in that
    when they are done. KidPix is another alternative as well as
    Microsoft Paint.

    At my daughter's school they are permitte to go to
    certain "educational" websites such as coolmath.com when they
    are finished with their work.

    Sometimes, I will let certain students who finish early
    assist other students in the class with their questions. The
    rule is that they can only show them where things are, they
    are not to do the work for them.

    Another thing that I do is have the students practice typing
    using our tying software when they complete an activity.
