  Case: Repeating Students
Due to the number of students at Mr. Henry's school, several students take his health class multiple times per year. Those students are often taught the same materials and given the same assessments the second time they take his class. What are some ways he can challenge those students, while ensuring the other students are taught and assessed on those same materials?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Students who are taking the class for a second time could be given certain topics to "teach" before the teacher's formal lesson and they could offer a preview to the other students. They could also be given projects to complete in lieu of formal instruction again.

Comments: I think this is the best solution because it makes sure the students who are taking the class again are not just getting through with no effort. Teaching others is sometimes the best way to learn, and by doing this it would allow the repeat students to learn the material in a new way and also make them more likely to remember the material in the future.
