Avoid These Common Pitfalls with One Pagers

Recently, I found a new love… a new teaching strategy that became a game changer for me and my students. The One Pager. Have you heard of these? One pager activities allow students to show what they know about a specific topic all on one singular page. The key element that separates these one pagers from any other assignment, is the combination of their written reflections/understandings and art. Students creatively display their knowledge with text, drawings, color, and any other elements that showcase their knowledge.

I love how these display a combination of their artistic talent, symbols from the texts, and their written interpretations and understandings. They are still completing a rhetorical analysis or a literary analysis, but they also get to showcase their creativity. Engagement soars! My students have not gotten excited for their rhetorical analysis assessments. And… that excites me!

That said, with all this love for one pager activities, I will share the two pitfalls that I, myself, fell into when I started using one pagers.
