Utilization: Kahoot! is a great tool that can be utilized in the classroom. It is an interactive game that allows the students to compete against one another. This tool should be utilized as a check in for the teacher to see if the students are understanding the content. All students are able to play Kahoot!.
Strengths: A strength to Kahoot! is that it is a fun and interactive way to get students to compete against one another in a content area. The teacher is able to determine if he/she needs to teach a certain portion of the content. The students can also see their scores.
Limitations: A limitation for Kahoot! is that it requires technology so if the students do not have technology in the classroom then they cannot play. Also, students may just click answers without even reading them just so they can be the first ones to answer. A way I would address this is by ensuring to the students that the fastest answer does not always mean the highest score.

Strengths: A strength to self-assessment is that the student can go back and look at their work and see if they are completing all of the objectives and requirements in order to get full credit. When students go through self-evaluating it can really enhance their learning experience.
Limitations: Students can get lazy and not really look through their work in detail. The student can also be bias and not think that anything needs to be changed or added. Student may look over a minor detail. I would address this by providing an example of how to self ass effectively.

Limitations: A limitation could be that a student gets shy and the teacher does all of the talking. This could harm the child by not being able to discuss what they are struggling with which can result in no progress. It can also be time consuming to have a conference with every student. I would address this by starting the conversations with genuine conversation.

Limitations: A limitation is that it can be very stressful for students because it is such a high stakes test. They know that all of the material from the school year will be on this exam so it can make a lot of kids anxious and have their stress levels elevated. Students may also forget some content from the beginning of the school year. A way to address this would be to give a study guide or have a study session.

Strengths: A strength to the draft of the term paper is that the student can make corrects and revise the paper to make it better. The student can self assess the paper, have a peer review it, or have the teacher look over and give feedback.
Limitations: Students can rush the process and not revise effectively. Student may not be a skilled writer or lack fine motor skills if this is being utilized in younger grades. I would address this by helping the students in the revising process to help them.

# data[].attributes.body
Utilization: Students will turn in a final draft of the paper that cannot be revised again. The students should have ample time in completing the paper. Al students should partake in this assignment. A final draft of a term paper should be utilized in the upper grades once the fine motor skills are able and the cognitive abilities of the students can write a term paper.
Strengths: The strength is that the term paper should be a polished version of the original draft. The student should hav had multiple eyes read the paper and have a ton of feedback.
Limitations: Once the student turns in the paper, then that's it. They cannot revise the paper anymore; they can only see the grade from the teacher. Students may also not revise effectively so the paper may contain multiple errors. One way to address this is before the students turn their paper in, I could look over it one last time to give them last second feedback.

Utilization: This a great tool to allow the students to get out of their seats and to move around. The teacher will have a list of questions, with four answer choices. The teacher will then label the corners (ABCD or 1234). The teacher will ask the question with the different answer choices and allow the students to go to the corner where they think the answer is. This can be utilized as a whole group and should be done before a test.
Strengths: This activity encourages physical movement which is great for the young kids. teachers can see the students understanding based upon what corner they go to.
Limitations: Students may just follow a friend around. Students may also just follow the majority. If a student is in a wheel chair it will be difficult for them to move from corner to corner. I would address this by keeping a close eye on students to see if they are just messing around or following a friend.

Limitations: Students may see all green cards and follow the crowd even if they should hold up red just so they will not feel embarrassed. I would address this by having the students close there eyes until the last second.

Strengths: The student will be able to practice on expanding on their thoughts as well as learning how to condense on what they want to say. The students can also work individually or in groups.
Limitations: The students may be stronger in the condensed version of the summaries rather than the expanded version. I would address this by giving the students some sentence starters if I see that they are stuck in any of the summaries.
