A really good Idea

I just wanted to share with everyone a really good idea and activity set up that my cooperating teacher has made for her classroom.

She is doing a review of information to prepare students for the upcoming test. She has set up a TIC TAC TOE format of information for students to choose from for instance...

There are 9 squares in the grid of tic tac toe. In each square there are assignments such as complete a power point that describes the impact that physical features had on Egypt. In a different square is create a post card that illustrates BLAH BLAH on one side and you write to a friend explaining BLAH BLAH on the other. Stuff like that.

Students must Choose 3 squares to complete, but they must make a tic tac toe. She has it set up so students can do easier stuff, but also are forced to choose a more difficult task as well. The students are loving it! Each student that needs one gets a lap top for their project. They have done such a great job with it and I think they find it interesting and fun because they got to choose what they wanted to do for work.
