One of my favorite elementary school teachers was Sister Pat who was my homeroom teacher for both 5 th and 7 th grade! She was strict, but always positive and warm to everyone.
Learning goal for this year: to use more GLAD strategies to support ELL kids! Today we did a pictorial comparison chart of 2 bioluminescent things. @FifeWOW#togetherwerfife
@FifeWOW Favorite moment of today: second grader usually buzzing with energy, curled up in the corner on a pillow, shoes off, not wanting to stop reading "Humphrey," the hamster! #fifetwittersmackdown#togetherwerfife
Q3: I see my students actively learn with technology when they are working in small groups/partners and coach each other. They become their peer's mentor with the ability to walk them threw it. #L1T2Fife
A2: False engagement in my classroom I've seen often when playing games with points. Lots of kids get hooked on getting the points as fast as they can but don't read the material. If they get a problem wrong, they go back and click on the next multiple choice option. #L1T2Fife
A1: I want this book study to help guide my personal reflections on how I use technology in the classroom and continue to improve on it for the following school year. #L1T2Fife
Q10: Decrease digital distraction: schedule digital times during the day and let students know when it is an appropriate time or not. #FifeCMDigitalAge
A15: The 1:1 program is preparing the youth to be successful in this digital age. It is the new lifestyle at school, home and the workplace. #FifeCMDigitalAge
A5 GLAD strategies help increase student ownership in my classroom with student scouts and T charts for character traits. I assign table captains to help manage each group. #FifeCMDigitalAge
A4 Getting the day started with a task makes for an easy transition as everyone arrives at school and unpacks. We vary from math practice review and KWT each morning. #FifeCMDigitalAge
A3 Some writing assignments are done using Google docs and submitted via Google classroom. The ELA has an option to take tests paper pencil or online! Makes it easy for grading multiple choice online. #FifeCMDigitalAge
A2 Classroom procedures for Chromebooks have students unplugging their computers as soon as they arrive at school. Lots of conversations are being had about carrying with 2 hands, safe places to keep them, headphone and stylus use. #FifeCMDigitalAge
