My students always have a choice on how they can demonstrate their understanding, for example, create a puppet of one of the characters in a story, write a diary entry as one of the characters, create a video talking as one of the characters, or an activity that they can come up with on their own. This helps them feel more comfortable and in control and it is so much fun!

I offer my students flexible seating at the beginning of the school year. I explain that by sitting next to their friends then they are making the choice to continue to make good choices. My centers are very much structured but the idea of allowing students to have center choice boards sounds like it would allow for more student engagement. I'll attempt to use center choice boards in the near future.

Student Agency is emphasized in my classroom through the design of personalized student self-paced paths to mastery. Students have full autonomy as to how they access the learning. Rather than 'Teaching' I am able to guide each student to what they need to attain mastery.
