Guest Blog Post from our friends over at ClassroomFreebiesToo.com! Hope you enjoy.
Menus are not hard work to put together, and can actually be used from year to year. Once you have created a menu for a certain topic, you can use it again!
In my opinion, menus offer choices for students to interact with a given topic by varying the content, process, and/or product (which is DI 101). While the format may look different, in essence, they are just a DI lesson plan in a different template. The key with menus is not to force a specific choice, but rather give lots of options so that the student sees this as a learning opportunity, rather than “boring work that we are being forced to do.”
