More book projects, so much creativity! @wbms5

Great information& inspiration found here! #RoCoEdChat @Ascd @wbms5 Great videos about total classroom engagement! And can I propose a school wide simultaneous 30 minute independent reading time for everyone, staff and students, one day? Are you with me, @k1woodson ??

[Mrs.Addison’s English Adventures @MrsAddisonsEng1]

Loving the course on ASCD about how to promote a schoolwide culture of independent reading. That’s so important to me! Lots of great tips! #RoCoEdChat @ascd @wbms5

The #ASCD professional learning library has more than just content specific information. It has resources that support the whole child and the whole teacher, celebrating their growth and learning culture. @ASCD #RoCoEdChat @wbms5

The English 7 team is finding new avenues for their TEAMS! A sharing circle is a good way to encourage, listen and communicate in a supportive environment. We even found resources with questions to get started! #RoCoEdChat @ascd @WBMS5

From the book “Well Being in Schools”, our society has realized what we knew in the 1940s: there cannot be education without there first being health and safety. @WBMS5 #RoCoEdChat @ascd

Creating a modern playlist for a classic novel! That’s what’s happening in 212! @WBMS5

More superheroes! @WBMS5

[Mrs.Addison’s English Adventures @MrsAddisonsEng1]

We created Clause Superheroes last week! They each have a special power and a weakness, and a sentence to show its abilities. @WBMS5

Round 2 of “Not Your Mama’s Book Reports”! Some cool ideas from these students! @WBMS5

[Mrs.Addison’s English Adventures @MrsAddisonsEng1]

Super cool to be having a “booktalk” with Mrs Balsley, my class, my virtual class, Mrs. Nixon’s class, AND Mrs. Nixon’s virtual kids all at the same time! Technology is amazing! @WBMS5

[Mrs.Addison’s English Adventures @MrsAddisonsEng1]

First attempt at virtual group projects and presentations was a success! Virtual and hybrid kids combined forces to research holiday traditions in other countries and present virtually! Group responsibility? Check! Synthesizing research? Check! @WBMS5

[Mrs.Addison’s English Adventures @MrsAddisonsEng1]

Happiness is kids ASKING for a Wednesday virtual meeting so they can work in their breakout groups on a project! #motivation @WBMS5
