Day 10: Choice BoardsDay 10 of the 30-Day AI in the Classroom Challenge is all about student choice and ownership. Choice Boards give learners multiple ways to engage with content—through posters, skits, videos, AI-powered projects, and more. By offering both offline and online options, teachers can spark creativity, differentiate instruction, and keep students deeply invested in their learning.
Daily Challenge As you plan your lessons, look for opportunities to add choice into your instruction. ✅ Start Small – Build a 2-, 3-, or 6-choice board connected to your current unit. ✅ Mix It Up – Include both offline (poster, comic, skit) and digital/AI options (Canva, Riffit, StoryboardThat, Book Creator). ✅ Leverage AI – Use tools like MagicSchool, Eduaide.ai, ChatGPT, or Google Gemini to generate activities, rubrics, and layouts that save you time. ✅ Student Voice – Leave a blank square for students to design their own choice activity.
