I love the WIN board for student voice and choice. They would be able to choose what topic they struggled with within that unit or during the week and review it, practice it, and show it.
I would love to have ideas for the student's data notebook!

Student Voice and Choice
As a High School Special Education teacher I teach students English with a variety of disabilities. I would start out in the morning with a writing prompt. This gave the students  an opportunity to express their opinion about the topic. Students had to make choices about how they wanted to review for a test using quizlet, quizizz or the basketball  waste basket game. I plan to implement Choice boards, flip grid and anchor charts. This is an opportunity for students to have choices, to increase their reading comprehension and critical thinking skills.

As an elementary school librarian, I have had to change things this year to accommodate our virtual learners.  We also had face to face learners in the building.  After researching and working with other librarians in the county we came up with choice boards for our virtual students.  The boards were done monthly and they could choose one activity a week to complete, but had the option to do more if they wanted.  Choice boards not only had reading involved, but coding activities, makerspace activities, and other web-based or hands on activities.  These boards were also used in the face to face classes if needed.  I hope to continue these boards once we are back to "normal" to give students more of a voice in what they learn of the topic we are covering in the library.

I have integrated a lot of choice of topic, as well as several choice boards this year.  When my Spanish students were learning preterite verbs we did a large choice board with reading/writing and speaking/listening activities that would activate the same mastery criteria while also making sure learning modality was honored.  It has been amazing!

I am a Differentiation Specialist for AIG students. We highly recommend using choice boards to our teachers because research has proven that with student choice, the students are going to do their best because they are able to choose a way that they feel more confident in completing their work. This is a best practice because it also allows those students that aren't always as strong in academics to show how they are gifted, or show how they understand the work through the way that they learn best.

Being in 1st grade, it can be difficult to give students a choice that we know they will be able to do independently. However, I have found ways to do so. I start in guided reading by asking students what they would like to read or write about. This holds their interests during that time and motivates them more during independent work. I do what to start utilizing choice boards. I did start this last year with my Kindergartens before COVID.

This year certainly has been a year of transition but for me not like the rest of you. I work in the Mental Health Field at a small school on the Broughton Hospital Mental Health Hospital in Morganton. I have been to work everyday during this pandemic. Most teachers cannot fathom this. My biggest transition was the fact that my principle retired and I have a new administrator for the first time ever (13 yrs). What I have learned is I was stale because no one was bringing in new ideas to us. One of the first things our new administrator taught us was about student choice and voice. It has been eye-opening for me and has been much more work but it has also awakened my creativity while also creating much more success in my classroom.

As a virtual teacher this year, I have had to implement several technology based educational practices. I have looked at their culture, ethnicity, learning style and tried to develop plans that they seemed to be more interested. I do this through choice boards where they choose 2 or more activities that interest them. Then I give the child time to reflect on the assignment. It helps because it gives the student the option to choose and to learn something. It helps them to gain more knowledge about themselves as well at the topic that we are learning.

This year has been a year of technology based learning with lots of great resources. I feel like the choice board is a great way to engage students and have a since of student voice and choice. I would like to implement Padlet into my classroom as an exit ticket or means to find out what students feel like they learned or want to know more about when it comes to lessons.

I have been working through the Modern Classroom Project training module and love how self paced plans incorporate student choice and voice into the structure. There are assignments that are must do and ones that are may do. There is chose in content, process and pace. I hope to create a few starter lessons over the summer to begin next fall. Another idea that was presented from one of the videos was having choice in sign-ups for extra help sessions. I will use this feature next month for reviewing for the 8th grade science EOG. Allowing students to sign up for review sessions on the remote learning day (Wednesday) for the topics that they feel they need the most help with.

I really like the must do and may do choice boards.  This gives students the opportunity to choose while still getting the work that needs to be completed done!  I think I have been afraid to use more choice in the past because it takes more planning and work up front, but when you get it ready for the students, it is easier in the long run!  I have seen that if students have choice, they take more ownership and enjoy learning more.  I know I like to have choice as an adult, so I know they do too!!!

I already use choice in alot of assignments I give. Examples include infection control project where they are given the choice of 10 diffeerent diagnosis they can choose from only stipulation they must include Diagnosis, Causative Agent, Mode of Transmission, Isolation required and Treatment.  This helps them learn a variety of infection control isolation for diferent disease processes.  I am excite to use more of an exit ticket form to get input into assignments for students to learn from them what works best in their learning process.

I want to start to implement choice boards in my class. I can have students vote on options they might be interested in that we have used in the past and also new options. This will allow students to have a say in what goes on the choice board. I think it is very important for students' opinions and thoughts to be hear and recognized within the classroom. These choice boards could also be used as a "what to do when I'm done" activity.

I use choice boards in my lessons, but I could offer more opportunities for choice in other activities. For example, I could have students vote on what kind of review activity we are going to do (Quizizz, Gimkit, trashcan basketball, white boards, etc.) or even let different groups of students do different review activities at the same time. I could also give students more options for answering questions on assignments, such as letting them answer a certain number of questions that they choose instead of having them answer all of the questions.

I am certainly more compliant and happier about completing tasks when given choices & the opportunity to express my opinion--- and so are students & almost everyone else!  Choice boards of learning activities give students tasks that allow them to best express what they have learned.  Giving students options to reflect on their learning involves information processing that is at the more retention base of the learning pyramid.  Choices that address various learning styles and feedback that include opportunities for continued learning are at the top of my list to-do for my students.

I will implement a Must Do and then a Choice Board for virtual Mondays and for when they are working at their seat when I am meeting with my guided reading groups. I will consider their interests more (by polling or assigning a flip grid ) to see what activities they may prefer the most. Our MyOn reading app allows for student choice frequently. They can pick whatever book interests them the most. I will be more mindful of the students interests, learning style, and home life to keep them engaged and promote ownership of learning,

I loved the WIN (What I Need Board) idea for my third grade math students. I could post 5 activities on their WIN boards and allow them to choose 3 for the week. These would be high-interest standards-based math activities that my third graders need more practice with based on their data (i-Ready, Benchmarks, etc). Some activities that I am considering for the WIN boards include Boom Cards, Kahoots, i-Ready Math Lessons, Reflex Math, and Khan Academy.
