Beyond worksheets and tests, we can allow and encourage students to demonstrate and express learning in different ways. They can choose to create videos, audio, infographics, essays, stories, or virtual words, and even share their work with a larger audience than just their teacher. As teachers we can model these multiple methods, and share our learning as well.
