Instructional Ideas

• Encourage pupils to include both academic and social lessons gained from inside and outside your classroom learning environment
• Ask students to frame their responses in a particular writing style you would like to assess (complete sentences, paragraph summaries, descriptive phrases, etc.)

Pros

• Simple worksheet with multiple possibilities for use
• Font is attractive for younger students

Cons

• There may not be enough room for students to include more than brief phrases to describe each of the things they have learned
