Voice and Choice in Homework

Coordinator of Professional Learning and Curriculum Management
Example from Campus
See below to learn how our 3rd grade team has set up the homework process for this year. Each week, students have choices to demonstrate their learning and practice skills. The choices allow for creativity to flourish as students use their own voices to show their learning.
How could you incorporate choice into your homework tasks and processes?
Student Work Product
Watch the video below to see what one of our students created for one of his homework choices.
The prompt for his choice was: Write and record a speech persuading your classmates to elect you as the class president. Include at least three reasons you'd make a good president.
What learning and skills was he able to practice/demonstrate through this assignment?
