I looked at 53 ways to check for understanding and had some ah ha moments while looking at the different ideas. #keepitsimple #parkedtech

@BaskervilleLK This is such a great question! I think there are so many different areas of being a teacher. Some I am passionate about, some make me angry.

One way I give formative assessments is through #masteryconnect. It's great for formative and summative. #parkedtech #proud2bpirates

@MularoniART I agree! Math is my very favorite. At the beginning of the year students hate math, by the end they love it. They can see it gets me excited

[Ms. Benton @MsBentonsClass]

@Shayla1494968 I think a lot of it comes down to student choice. Let students choose how they will meet a certain standard.

Anyone try Classcraft in their classrooms? It looks fun. I am going to try it when I return to school after my maternity leave. #parkedtech

@MrsOldhamsClass I am stealing this! I love it. I constantly talk to my students about not giving up and being okay with not being successful the first time!

[Ms. Benton @MsBentonsClass]

@Shayla1494968 I love what is says about student choice. This is so important!

@HaynesTheatreED Same! I was so excited to go 1 to 1 that I just transferred all the things I already did onto the ipad! After research and PD's I fixed that

@MrsOldhamsClass My students always LOVE Genius hour and I learn so much about them!

[Ms. Benton @MsBentonsClass]

@HaynesTheatreED YES! Using technology should expand their learn. Don't just do the same thing a different way. Do something different!

[Ms. Benton @MsBentonsClass]

Students only retaining 70% of the info before 10 minutes of class, may mean I need to time myself when instructing my class. #parkedtech

@speisersquad @HillcrestSTEAM They had so much fun. We are preparing for the eclipse! I was surprised how little they knew about shadows!
