"The Challenge" Choice BoardA Choice Board allows students to choose what types of tasks they will complete as a way to show what they know and understand about class material. This choice board asks students to make a Tic-Tac-Toe style choice, choosing tasks that make a horizontal, vertical, or diagonal line across the 'Tic-Tac-Toe' board. Students complete all tasks in class over a period of five days. Click to download the Choice Board and Grading Rubric, below.
