If you know the learning objective system that differentiates on 3 levels, based on the minimum learning needed ("All students MUST"), the "all students SHOULD" and "All students COULD", then perhaps a more dynamic student-friendly way of presenting this could be using "Warm" (Must), "Hot" (Should) and "Scorching" (Could). 

Students then start by challenging themselves with "Warm", and love the challenge of rising to be "Scorching"!

If we remember the first Upper School AFL Session in May, we were working on a 6x6 grid that allowed students a choice of activities. In the session, we used the grid to discuss AFL strategies. Here we have a plenary grid which can be adapted and used to provide various strategies at the end of a lesson to check progress.

How It Works 
- Print the grid out- laminate it- A4? A3? or have a grid permanently stuck into the students books?
- Then give students a dice to roll twice. Once to count along and once to count across.
- Whatever box the student randomly lands on is the task they must complete.
- Remember you can differentiate the grids based on student levels/grades- include blooms stems/higher order thinking skills etc.
- Please note the grid could be personalised to your subject. However, the above could be a generic grid for all subjects.
