I took a similar approach to music study. I have a jar with composer names in and they get to pick one out for us to listen to whenever they want to. If they don’t fancy it, they can put it back and pick another one. No pressure but they’ve learned their own ways to analyse what they are listening to completely voluntarily.

I am completely stealing this jar idea! Brilliant.

I hope it works for you. My two liked it so much that when they emptied the question jar they voluntarily tipped all the questions back in so they can do it again!
