Menu style assignments

by mrs. Roach

May 16, 2017

Have any teachers successfully implemented menu-like assignment options for students so they learn the same objectives but can do it in different ways? Any tips on how I can do this well in my sophomore high school biology room? Anything I need to look out for?

Novel I have used assignment option lists for a while now BUT you must make sure that all options demand the content of your curriculum, and some students should be guided towards certain options rather than others.

Desperate to find good teacher forum!

by Desperate

Apr 26, 2017

Can someone PLEASE recommend a good teacher forum? Unlike this one I need one where you can actually find your posts! For some weird reason there seem to be no active ones out there. I need one where people are constantly responding.

Hello,

I am trying to create a tool for teachers to aid the process of learning names and faces of students in the beginning of the school year. I am conducting a survey regarding to this and it would really help me out if you can spend 5 minutes on this short survey. I appreciate your input in advance. Have a great evening.

I have a special ed kid in one of my classes that's filled with mostly high performing to average kids. The kid keeps speaking out and saying foolish things. It's unclear to me how clueless the kid actually is and how unaware of social norms they are. Seems like the kid is mainly trying to get attention. The kid doesn't say things really inappropri...See More
