This school year has been a challenge to say the least, but it’s the beautiful heart of a student that has me smiling through the hard times. Her hardships have only made her stronger and I’m blessed to have her as a student. #beautifulsoul#flowersbringsmiles
It’s been awhile, but I’m proud to report these kids have show tremendous growth in reading and math! Look at the scores on the right from our current math test. #divisionmasters#littlegoalsetters
It was so fun to be "in" the classroom for a government talk with Mrs. Little's 3rd Grade Class at Callaway Hills. They had great questions, and I even signed their bills into "laws"! @CH_3rdGraders@JCSchools_
Thank you @CarrieTergin for meeting with our class via Zoom today! It was great to hear about your job as mayor and to have you sign our bills into “laws”! Thanks!
Celebrating our 2nd Class Expectations Party with Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory! We had our own “wonka” bar and apples with caramel! The kids are even noticing the differences from the book! 🤩
@Evan_Markowitz@KaganOnline@Evan_Markowitz@KaganOnline has been a life saver during our first few weeks back to school. I learned so many great ways to incorporate Kagan into socially distanced learning. I'm going to borrow this idea! Great idea!
I want students to give peer feedback, but am not sure how to implement this through Google Classroom other than in the comments section of the assignments. I'm open to suggestions using technology. #edtech#edchat#shakeuplearning#wwu543#virtualfeedback
This week, I commented on student work via Google Classroom. I commented on their work and returned it, but I wish there was a way for their parents to receive the feedback as well. Thoughts? #edtech#wwu543#shakeuplearning#edchat#techfeedback
@ShakeUpLearning I just read this in your book and it really hit home! Students need to be learning or exploring 100% of the time in or out of school. Just how do we do that as teachers to model this for them? Nutrition is good for the body, mind, and soul!
Giving students a more creative license to grow as learners and teach their peers is where I’d like to go. Extended student learning outside the walls and subject needs to happen! #ShakeUpLearning#wwu543#edtech#edchat#thinkoutsidethebox
Kasey Bell outlines Dynamic Learning in her Shake Up Learning book. Allow students to extend their learning “beyond the due date” because they learn so much more and teach us along the way! #edchat#ShakeUpLearning#wwu543#edtech#funfacts#newknowledge
Empowering students to be intrinsically motivated starts with the teacher. I enjoy goal setting and encourage my students to do the same! This year we are using online data binders! #goalsetters#edchat#ww543#edtech#shakeuplearning
