Tasks for Students Who Finish Early

It would be great if all your students finished their classwork at the same time. This, of course, is not reality. Here are some things you can have early finishers do.

• Help another student.
• Do silent reading.
• Study for a test.
• Complete other assignments.
• Work on a project.
• Do journal writing.

You might want to post a wall chart listing these things.
