Anchor Charts: Each anchor chart can be used to facilitate classroom discussions, provide students with the opportunity to ask questions and develop a classroom wide understanding of a concept.
Tip: Save these anchor charts as a Sample Student to go back and add to as the class progresses through a unit/topic.
Routines: Each activity can be customized to fit your curriculum, units and classroom instruction. Assign different types of Checks for Understanding lessons to your students at the end of each day or week to capture student comprehension.
