Low Prep Student Creation Activities

3/6/2023

One of the most commonly asked questions that I receive from classroom teachers is, "What suggestions do you have for low-prep Future Ready activities?" My answer is to add creation and collaboration projects for the students to complete over the multiple-day checklist. Below is a suggested creation rollout that can be housed inside the student checklist.

Overview Sample One: Sample one mini-project is a two-day choice activity in that the students will spend ten minutes each day working on the mini-project. By the end of the two days, the students will have made a poster on Canva.com or a physical mini-poster (11X17)
Overview Sample Two: Sample two showcases a choice board, brainstorming time, and three days to work on the mini-project with a partner. By breaking the mini-project into chunks, the students will gradually build, design, and work on the activity over four days, with fifty minutes dedicated to the creation project.

The low prep activities start by providing students time to create and collaborate with choice creation activities.
