CHOICE IS A POWERFUL MOTIVATOR.Studies have show the benefit of giving students choice in their learning.  One of the ways teachers do this is by implementing the use of choice boards in the classroom.A choice board is simply a collection of activities (they can be digital, nondigital, or a combination), usually formatted visually on a grid.  Students are then invited to choose one or more of those activities to complete.  They are the ones choosing which activity interests them.  So - right away, they are taking ownership of their learning.FOR COMPLETE SHOW NOTES VISIT:  classroomnook.com/podcast/113LINKS & RESOURCES MENTIONED IN THE EPISODEEPISODE 91: The TRUTH About Learning StylesJoin the LINKtivity® Learning Membership and get access to my entire vault of LINKtivity Interactive Learning Guides - CLICK HERE to join.
