About a year ago I was trying to figure out some differentiation ideas. I had read somewhere about anchor activities. I started researching this and found a myriad of ideas and explanations so I took a little from here and little from there and added some of my own ideas and set up several anchor activity folders for my students to access. I used file folders and laminated them to hold the direction sheets for the different anchor activities. I used self adhesive Velcro and put them in a permanent location in my classroom. When the students have completed their other work, or if I need to work with a few students on something, they work on anchor activities. They work great but I have to teach the activity first and I have to reteach my expectations of what the finished product should look like about once a quarter. The students tend to forget and just need to be reminded.
