I loved this assignment! It provided the perfect opportunity to think strategically about how to weave together some truly amazing tools for differentiation into a year-long emphasis on informational text. Throughout the year, students will read selections appropriate to their Lexile ranges in Newsela, interact with question and prompt-embedded media via Zaption and Actively Learn, record vocabulary learning and development via Quizlet and Padlet, and work collaboratively to visualize key ideas and details via Piktochart infographics. Interaction with peers and the teacher will occur via Actively Learn and Blackboard, and NoRedInk will serve as a meaningful "If-Time" activity for those fast readers to learn and practice application of mechanics/usage/grammar skills.
