Toy Teacher is a collection of interactive manipulatives and assessment tools to illustrate and assess concepts in

• Math (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, probability)
• Language Arts (alphabet, reading, writing)
• Art (building blocks, mirror & balance activities, animation, doodles)
• Music activities
• Puzzles for problem solving, spatial reasoning, memory, deductions etc.
• Games (checkers, chess, Tic Tac Toe and more)

One tool you may consider using or revisiting is the hyperdoc which aligns in a lot of ways with learning roadmaps depending on how you utilize them.

A hypderdoc

• Begins with strong lesson design

• Curates quality instructional content

• Packages learning in a way that engages learners

• Encourages collaborations, giving all students voice

• Creates & shares authentic products which develop critical thinking/problem solving skills

Below is the recorded PL Session from May 2020. The slidedeck in that session is available here. It offers examples from my own classroom, templates and samples from across grade level and content area. While I know I can do better now that I know better, they illustrate at least one way to combine learning roadmaps and recorded mini-lessons so allow student pace and choice.

Additional hyperdoc slidedeck overviews: here, here
