The teacher creates a supportive learning environment for all students that encourages group interaction, active engagement in learning, and self motivation.
Provides students with choices for learning opportunities and enables students to contribute to the menu of choices.
In addition, students also make choices with math buckets. Below is a video of students doing a math bucket activity that they chose.
Each day my students get to choose a daily five choice including writing, reading to self, word work, big books, library books, fridge magnets, and listening to reading. Below are pictures of students after they have made their choices.
Intentionally organizes a variety of flexible groups to encourage student interactions.
In our class we do a variety of group and partner activity in addition flexible guided reading groups. We also have partner math and word study buddies.
Each week our class also meets with Mrs. Lister's second grade class to do book buddies to promote student friendships and group work.
Ensure student accomplishments are broadcast in a variety of mediums and locations.
