Differentiating Instruction With Menus offers
teachers everything they need to create a student-centered learning
environment based on choice. Addressing the four main subject areas
(language arts, math, science, and social studies) and the major concepts
taught within these areas, these books provide a number of different types
of menus that elementary-aged students can use to select exciting products
that they will develop so teachers can assess what has been
learned—instead of using a traditional worksheet format.
Each book contains attractive reproducible menus, each based on the levels
of Bloom's revised taxonomy, for students to use to guide them in making
decisions as to which products they will develop after studying a major
concept or unit. Using creative and challenging choices found in Tic-Tac-Toe
Menus, List Menus, 2-5-8 Menus, Baseball Menus, and Game Show Menus,
students will look forward to sharing their newfound knowledge throughout
the year. Also included are specific guidelines for products, rubrics for
assessing student products, and teacher introduction pages for each menu.
This book includes menus that teach students about ancient history,
American history, government, U.S. documents, people in history, and
geography.
