This coaching tip is written with
the “Cougar Classroom” (Cluster Group Classrooms) in mind, and it is applicable for any
differentiation a teacher wants to do to challenge students.
When you have a student who
completes work quickly and needs a challenge activity, one option is to have a
board with cards in it with challenge activities related to THINKING (not
necessarily specific content). By
limiting the choice each couple of weeks, you can have the necessary supplies
available to students.
On the attached blog you can find Suggested Extension Activities for both primary and intermediate students,
and a Daily Log where students can track their own progress of which
extension activities they complete. When
the sheet is filled, have the student take the sheet home to show their parents
how they have been challenged!
