Two ways to organize independent work for students. The first uses Velcro letters matched to task boxes, so students see progress as letters disappear. The second is a dry-erase checklist where they check off each task as they finish it.

So some students have Velcroed letters and numbers that show what task they're doing, and other students that kind of have moved on from this have just a dry erase marker with a list of the tasks they have. So to start out, the kids have Velcro letters or numbers. These indicate which task box. So they come here, they grab the letter, they match it to the task box, they sit down, do the activity, put it back. And having the letters stay on here is great because we know which ones we have to undo. Um, once they're done, they do the next one and the next one until it's finished. So it's a nice visual way to show once there's no more letters, they're all done. And as they go through the different tasks, there's less on here. For the students that have the dry erase marker list, they do task O, go grab task O, do it. When they're done, they cross it off. Task J, go do task J, cross it off. And then 22. So that's a nice way to make it a little more generalizable. Okay.
