Alternatives to Traditional Paper Pencil Activities
1. Self-checking task cards, placed around the room. Students can start anywhere, solve, and then look for the answer on top of another task card. Pros - students are moving, teachers can provide assistance, students know immediately if they make an error and work on finding their mistake. Search for looping cards.
2. Partner whiteboard work - both partners solve the question on their whiteboard and then compare their work and answers.
3. Technology - lumio lessons, desmos activities, Geogebra and quiz-type games(Kahoot, Blooket, Gimkit, Quizizz)
4. Puzzles and games. Ideas Tarsia puzzles, matching puzzles, card type games
