Tuesday before Thanksgiving Break, @BGJHS took students (& me!) to a WKU womens basketball game! Such a fun field trip! ๐ We even got to see Big Red!

Second lesson @BGJHS is done!
Students were able to learn about African folktales! We also watched a video about folktales being passed from Ghana to Jamaica by word of mouth!

Honored to receive the "Excellence in Teaching Award" today alongside my CEPT partner @IsaacTPerkins_! Thanks @DrMargarella for an amazing semester ๐
Today was my first SOLO lesson!!
Today we debated whether video games were or were not a sport. ๐ฎ
Students found text evidence to use to back up their claims and used it to practice writing claim statements. ๐

What a perfect week to discuss diversity as Tuesday was #worlddownsyndromeday!
We learned in seminar about how to make our classrooms more inclusive! I plan on using diverse posters and texts to make my classroom more inclusive ๐ซ

This week @IsaacTPerkins_ and I got to lead our first lesson together over arguments! Lots of collaborative learning today with a round robin. Everyone got to share their claims about different topics! So much fun! ๐๐ @DrMargarella@WKUSTE@WKUCEBS@CEPTatWKU@DrakesCreekMS
Using empathy maps would be an awesome tool for me to learn more about my students and make the curriculum more interesting for each kid specifically! @WKUSTE@RebeccaStobaugh
Getting to know your students well can be vital for your curriculum planning. With this visual mapping tool, you can keep track of each student's passions, challenges, and needs in one handy place.

@DrLogsdon I chose this article about teaching SS through children's books and movies because this is something I'd love to do in the classroom. The article mentions how children's books help simplify hard concepts and make the subjects more memorable.
