In addition to all of the amazing Thinking Maps you have all been using with you students (check out how Mr. Kade enriches his Art Lesson with double bubble maps and Ms. Consiglio’s uses thinking maps for problem solving steps!), Here is another great strategy you can use…
Formative Assessment Game On! Use dry erase boards to quickly formatively assess if your kids got it! Pull small groups for those who don’t, while the others who got it move on. Easy and fun way to see what your students need. Don’t have dry erase boards? Ms. Keveney is working on it..which means its as good as done!
If you would like to share a Star Strategy (or have a co-teacher who takes pictures when you are not looking…sorry Wellman) Please send them my way! So many wonderful things are happening and we could all use a great new strategy!
