  Case: Enrichment for honors
Coach Porter teaches 10th grade Honors World History. His students are very exceptional and academically superior compared to the on-level world history classes. The coach has noticed that he has a high percentage of his class that exceeds on the formal assessment he gives in class. He knows he should use an enrichment activity to help stimulate deeper knowledge within the material, however, he wants to make it enjoyable for the students. He feels that if he gives a complex reading that students will lose interest very quickly. What are some activities or enrichment assessments he could use that they could find enjoyable?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would incorporate technology as much as possible. Young people are driven by social media so maybe he could use some type of educational social media platform to have discussions over certain parts of complex reading.
