A few weeks back I tried an idea that I had tried a few years back, Social Studies stations; the upper elementary version of "centers." Each station would have a different activity that either reinforces what we had already taught or would introduce them to something that will be forthcoming. The activities vary from the traditional worksheet or some game/activity.
The students loved the idea! They would even to come class and ask if we were going to do "stations" today. So, if they are learning and it's different, why not give it a shot?!
