@sew1080@TechNinjaTodd@kimbearden Muffins with Moms and Donuts for dads is a great event that goes way back to my elementary days! I always felt the students get so excited to make the connection between home and school with their parents! #formativechat
A3: Having nights where parents can come in and see their Ss work! I also think that having a class twitter, facebook, etc. page is a way to get parents involved! Also having notes periodically to parents and show what we're learning #formativechat
@KristenSevinsky I think that's a great idea. Ss can really learn real life skills and see how things are made. It's also great to relate learning to out of class experiences! #formativechat
@LScumpieru This is a great idea! I think that bringing in people can be hard, and there's not always a lot of money for field trips so this would really help those problems. #formativechat
A2: Bringing in anybody that works in local businesses such as hyvee or stores that students know of and that can share their job duties or anything they know would be great for students! #formativechat
A1: I think that a school flipgrid that students can post to would be a great way for students to share their ideas with everyone! If teachers would respond, it would be even better! #formativechat
A6: I have learned how getting out of your normal routine and opening up to ideas and suggestions from others that can be found through social media is an amazing way to be a better teacher! #ISUci454
A5: My first grade teacher had the most impact on me. She was always happy, cared about all of her students, and made learning fun! She inspired me to be a teacher just like her! #ISUci454
A4: one group that I follow on social media is the CTLT page. I love the CTLT and I find that there are a lot of cool things happening with our peers that we should all be seeing! #ISUci454
A3 I can see myself using twitter and Instagram to showcase our work and have students show their work online as well. I can also use twitter for professional development and getting ideas from other educators! #ISUci454
A2: I’ve mainly used social media in the past to stay in contact with family and friends. Social media is mainly where I keep everyone updated on my life, and where I get updates on the lives of others!! #ISUci454
A1: Hi my name is Brooke Huntington. I’m a sophomore from Perry and have endorsements in reading and English language arts. I hope to teach Kindergarten. My favorite tool is Snapchat! #ISUci454
