• science classes – problems and projects and labs
• give students multiple days to complete homework – allows for issues in schedule, sports, etc.
• don’t give all class rules at once – overwhelms students – just touch on main points
• use web resources – class site or blog, and review materials students can access at home
• let students do work on board and explain how to do it instead of teacher always doing it
• projects – one big one per marking period with some class time for them
• let students pick project groups – easier for meeting outside of school
