Choices (Multiage Curriculum - Intermediate)

Choices, a book from the Multiage Differentiated Curriculum Kit for Grades 4–6, helps students become more aware of the choices they make every day. Every choice has a consequence, whether it is positive or negative.The books in Prufrock's new Differentiated Curriculum Kits employ a differentiated, integrated curriculum based on broad themes. This all-in-one curriculum helps teachers save planning time, ensure compliance with national standards, and most importantly, pique their students' natural excitement and interest in discovery. By participating in the wide variety of activities in the Multiage Differentiated Curriculum Kit for Grades 4–6, students evaluate their own choices and gain a lifelong desire to learn.This book will allow students to organize, categorize, and reevaluate choices that they make on a daily basis. These activities will help students grasp the importance, responsibility, and implications of their decisions.Choices also will explore decision-making strategies, such as flow charts, tree diagrams, drawing straws, and flipping a coin. Students will compare fractions and make real-life choices based upon the comparisons.Choices, along with the other books in the Multiage Differentiated Curriculum Kit for Grades 4–6 (Balances, Explorations, Questions, and Viewpoints), makes teaching advanced learners easier!This curriculum unit makes use of the following great children's literature books: On My Honor by Marion Dane Bauer;Maggie's Choice by Norma Jean Lutz;Joseph's Choice—1861 by Bonnie Pryor; andSamuel's Choice by Richard Berleth.
