Download
a template to help you make constructed response items that include
higher order thinking skills. This is like an easy way to use that
wheel we got at the faculty meeting. After you download the template,
open it and fill it in as a word document. When you print it, the
gray part won't show and just the words you selected will show. Perhaps
it will help you to more easily create activities that stretch the brain.
