The lessons that add student choice and also allow them to work at their own pace are highly effective for the higher level achievers. The proficient students need the time to work through their assignments with freedom.

The think about topics: When I allow struggling students too much time, they inevitably waste their time with off-task behaviors and need frequent redirection.

The wastebasket items are some of the "should do" and "may do" tasks. The wording of the "should" vs. "may" troubles me that I would only have to answer that question over and over every single day. I would further refine these tasks into simpler wording.
