As commented earlier, I am having trouble developing C and D quadrant activities for my students, especially in 9th grade civics. I feel I do a good job of relating new information to students in ways they would understand (real world examples) when I am lecturing and they are taking notes, but putting this idea of being relevant, and deeper thinking into a planned activity I am definitely struggling with.
I want to avoid "sppon-feeding" information to my students. At times I think I develop deeper thinking, applicable activites that are relevant to my students without even knowing it. I still feel I am missing something, or how to turn a "spoon-fed" worksheet or assignment into a more deeper level, relevant activity that they will remember....any suggestions?
