Main course could have choice of various video lessons on a topic that the students can take notes on. 

Side dishes could have the different activities to practice the skills/apply the skills/critical thinkers.

The dessert could be an extension to the lesson— maybe how does it relate to other topics or a chance to be creative.]]> 2018-04-27 15:32:48 UTC https://padlet.com/meghanbalcorn1/cmdo/wish/256056819 https://padlet.com/meghanbalcorn1/cmdo/wish/256056839 This would be great independent work for my students while in my small groups/conferencing. 
I think creating & enforcing expectations would be harder for teacher than students, as students have probably had more practice doing them than I.

Also, it could help you set up your learning stations during independent work times while teachers pull guided math groups. 

Dining menus could be used as review for upcoming tests or even for homework.
