@JLFalcaro @SharonStrausser I really liked the multi-genre project as well. I can definitely see using that in my classroom. You should try digital literature circles for your novels from Chapter 6. I implemented it into my classroom with novels. My kids love it! #LVWPChat17
@JLFalcaro @SharonStrausser I LOVE ScreenCastify as well!! I was so intimidated when we first did it, but now, I think its so easy!! I can just whip out a little lesson, and they can use it during independent work. LOVE IT!! #LVWPChat17
#lvwpchat17 A3 My new favorite tool that I learned in this class is using PADLET. I LOVE it!! I have made different padlets for each of my classes, and the kids love it. I also like using screencastify. I'm going to make some podcasts as well.
@mrskeppel You are so correct!! They thrive when they are able to use technology. It is an adjustment for me, but I feel they are so much more engaged when the lessons include technology. #LVWPChat17
@rellim831 Girl, I hear you! I related completely to the story in the text about being a member of the cell phone brigade. Now, I let them use their phones for quizlet, quick research if we are doing something during class, and Kahoot. #LVWPChat17
@mreilly3712@SharonStrausser Exactly!! I am not embarrassed at all, my students love to show me stuff! When I did my first padlet with my 6th graders, they were showing me how to change the color of their responses, and add pictures. It was cool! #LVWPCHAT17
#lvwpchat17 A2 The best practice advice that I took away from Hyler and Hicks is that you should not get frustrated, we are all learning. If it works, great. If not, try it again another way. Just don't give up on the idea.
@LeticiaDipipi@SharonStrausser I also like the Google Classroom ideas. I, also, was kind of behind with using those resources. But, I have decided to dive right into it, and I'm loving how it is making life a little easier for me. Less copies to make!! #LVWPCHAT17
