Good evening from Rib Lake, WI. I teach fifth grade and I love any card game. My 7 year old grandson and I play 500 rummy quite regularly. #LearnLap

Oh. My. Goodness. If you use Zoom, you MUST check out this Prezi integration.

Just saw this and it looks SUPER cool. #DitchBook #TechLAP #edtech #remotelearning

@adventurer10 How exciting! Congrats to your daughter and to your family!

QUESTION 5: Student leadership will remain stagnant if students are always told what to do & when to do it. They need learn to think for themselves & make decisions without permission. What freedoms will your students have in the classroom? How will you let them know? #LearnLAP

Teachers, I want to send signed copies of my I Survived books to your special students. I have fifty books I will be giving away, 10 per week for the next five weeks. To participate, RT. I will choose ten people each Sunday and contact privately.

No internet access at home? Using G Suite in school? Do this to stay on track! I ❤ the #ditchsummit hacks. @jmattmiller is my hero.

A6 Ss answer phone, take attendance, clean room, write letters to newspaper, interview other teachers, run morning announcements, interrupt to share learning, and anything I can think of that I shouldn’t have to do😉#5thchat

[Barb Anderson @BarbJAnderson79]

A5. You may not know it YET, but with time and perseverance you will. We all learn at different rates. We celebrate mistakes a lot. I have kids present a lot and if they figure out their mistake while presenting we get all excited because the lightbulb came on! #5thchat

[Barb Anderson @BarbJAnderson79]

A4b I have answer keys up for all assignments given. It’s not about getting them right; it’s about learning from mistakes. Use your resources. Live like you are an adult in the real world. Remember that I will not be with you to problem solve. That is a skill u need #5thchat

[Barb Anderson @BarbJAnderson79]

A4. This is tough. We are hopefully moving to standards based grading soon. Kids learn right away that I don’t like grades and don’t give grades only feedback on rubrics. This is very hard for some kids. We talk about being better today than yesterday. What did u learn? #5thchat

[Barb Anderson @BarbJAnderson79]

A2 I love to see collaboration grow throughout the year. Learning that Everyone can offer solutions to the problem. I have an app Team Shake. The kids group with it. So much faster than sticks and the kids love using technology to create groups. #5thchat
