Episode problem of practice

How do I diversify my Cyber Sandwich activities?

  • Think about rotating readings with Listenwise stories, longer podcasts, Commonlits, and videos.
  • Turn it into a Philosopher’s Chair activity. Strongly Agree-Disagree, or have them pick one person, solution, or version of an event.
  • Differentiate by including multiple readings or multiple media per person.

The Social Studies Show – Episode 2

In this episode, Scott and Adam are joined by Dominic Helmstetter and Ben Harrington as they talk about Thin Slides in the social studies classroom.

Problem: Do your students read every word of each slide they present?
