For three weeks, the Amazon RAINFOREST has been burning. Fire frequency in Brazil has increased +82% due to droughts, increased heat, and land use change (logging, industry, & agriculture).
called my parents yesterday extremely concerned about the hurricane & asked them to take the cats & go up north for the weekend. they assured me they were fine and that no matter what they’d take care of my cats. I got this txt today(yes that’s hose water and no im not amused😂)
I am looking to use google classroom next year in my #gr6 room, I am looking for any tips, ideas and thoughts about best practices! #edtech@kbhildebrandt
Paper clip trading UPDATE: the students did amazing! Here are some of the items they ended up with:
Hat, gum, jersey, plant, lava lamp, a cow, hockey table game, a smoker, etc.
Such a great way to learn about bartering and trading! #proudteacher#YGS
With full confidence I asked some students "Would you rather do a worksheet on #googleClassroom or paper?" They of course chose PAPER! A paper task is WORSE on a digital platform. Design for digital if using digital. Otherwise, use paper and don't feel guilty about it.
Bartering and trading activity in the social 7/8 room last week! Now they are currently trying to trade a paper clip within the community for the next two weeks and see how far they get! Stay tuned! #socialstudies#redpaperclip#ygs
Had an awesome day learning hands-on at @WeyburnFireDept with the ESRT 11/12 students! Thank you to everyone who was helping and teaching today! We had a blast and learned a lot! Thanks😊
Not or. That happens a lot. You're not saving money going paperless. Get the teachers the materials they need to do their jobs. This requires a PLAN. And that plan is not teachers begging for it n https://t.co/cvGX327CwK
Students are taking their Physics Midterm exam today. I said no cell phones, not even for music since they could be used to cheat.
This student brought in a record player and is bumping Kanye in his headphones right now...
