Practice problems
Quiz questions
Self-generated work (create your own assignment such as an essay, comic strip, slide show, poster, or video)
Reasoning (3–5 sentences) For each piece of evidence, write a short explanation answering:
What is the evidence?
What did you learn from doing it?
How does it show that you understand the standard?
