Routines and Structures Playlist
As originally posted to the GPS Blended Learning Google Classroom: This slide deck playlist includes videos, readings, and resources that illuminate the reasons for developing routines and structures to support blended learning.
Additional resources will be added to this page & the Google Classroom as feedback guides and time allows.

Something as simple as having students do a more thorough check of or reflection on their work is an easy option, as are technology options related to your content area (i.e. Khan Academy, MobyMax, Readtheory, etc.) Visit this website for some ideas for anchor activities.

Providing Choice & Variations on Models
Workshop models often use the power of individual or small group conferencing during independent work time.
