I have never had a choice list, but I have drawn a line where kids "must" get to and said "If you get here, you can choose anything from under the line to work on." I especially use that strategy to modify to-do lists for Special Ed and ESL students.<br /><br />Thanks for your comments!<br /><br />Heidi Raki<br />www.rakisradresources.comAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13740105671088424720noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6184777619796062635.post-77535940520360286032014-02-26T04:49:51.642-07:002014-02-26T04:49:51.642-07:00Kim,

For that age group, I also printed a sheet that they could make big X's on if they finished an activity.<br /><br />With 1st graders, my math list looked like this:<br /><br />1. Math Sheet (generally from their workbooks)<br />2. Fill in or copy your 100's chart (as the year progressed, this became fill in the blanks or answer questions based on the 100's chart<br />3. Pull 4 problem solving cards out of a bucket - glue in notebook answer problems. <br />4. Work on math self correcting puzzles<br /><br /><br />My friend who does it with the kinder/1st grade mixed age group has a sheet ready for the kids, then one mandatory activity, like a sort or sequencing activity. Students move from the sheet to the activity and then after they are finished they can grab one of the mini iPads and play one of the appropriate games or create a puppet show on Puppet Pals to teach others about what they're learning about.<br /><br />Hope some of these suggestions are helpful!<br /><br />Heidi Raki<br />www.rakisradresources.comAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13740105671088424720noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6184777619796062635.post-433177737193722352014-02-24T18:02:41.727-07:002014-02-24T18:02:41.727-07:00I'm curious as to how this would work with my ...I'm curious as to how this would work with my Kinders? Any advice? I have the same problems... transitions are still chaos, kids are constantly saying "I'm done!" or "I'm not finished yet!" I am constantly redirecting and changing the way I do rotations, but nothing has ever worked.

My students in secondary school are still really struggling with this kind of automaticity and they have struggled for so long with the concepts as well as learning the facts that they often simply shut down at the thought of doing it. But it is something they really have to work on. I keep telling them that if they can master it they will find so many other maths things easier. Thanks for the tips on the apps to use. I'm definitely trying them out! :DMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12292323242971973047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6184777619796062635.post-38366678431173278912013-11-16T13:08:42.414-07:002013-11-16T13:08:42.414-07:00Many students love to perform (often including tho...Many students love to perform (often including those I would least expect)!
