Using Voice and Choice to Enhance Student Experience

My students' voice and choice primarily stems from our daily stations for guided practice.  I have some evidence in this category in the following capacities.  They do not need to complete all stations; they select the stations that will best help them check for their understanding of the geometry concept.  As for pacing, my students do stay in the same unit and test on the same day.  Their depth of the content comes from the varying stations that they select.  The challenge activities also provide a greater level of depth to help challenge the students that do not need the level 1 or 2 depth of knowledge.  Student choice has increased participation in my geometry classroom.

This is an example of the activities listed in each section for the major units in Geometry.

These are activities listed for each unit in each section.  The students then choose from the activities at their own pace to practice the content for each particular lesson.
