@MrsBiggieGrade5 @AlaneAdamsBooks That sounds like a lot of fun!

@Steph4Science Extra sports equipment like baseball bats and golf clubs can be found in my room

@MSmathstuff I am so sorry. I am immunocompromised and felt similarly when I contracted it at the end of February after we had students protesting the mask mandates. Try getting the monoclonal antibodies! I found it to be helpful.

@MarisaEThompson Oh no! Sounds like forced rest and relaxation! Make sure you take care of yourself.

@MarisaEThompson You are not alone

@cherrie_hanson I feel your pain and can tell you that as a teacher of 20 years this has been my most challenging year as well. Each grade is facing different challenges due to the time away from schools, structure, and daily accountability for the last 2 years. Take it one day at a time.

@cultofpedagogy When I taught middle school students about chemical and physical changes and focused the lesson around rumors being a chemical change. I love including childrens books into the lessons!

@matthew_owsley That’s awesome! Thanks for sharing!

[Sarah Rines @RinesSarah]

@barryeducated Quite a setup!! I may be setting up something similar soon!

@MarisaEThompson You will rock it!!

[Sarah Rines @RinesSarah]

@cove_mr Hoping to achieve? Or something about a personal goal you have for yourself?
Depending on how “deep” you want to get, you could include something you are missing as well.

@alicekeeler Please include information to indicate that just because they “turned in” work doesn’t mean it is complete. Too often I had parents tell me their student turned in work but when I opened the attachment it was my template with nothing added at all.

@cultofpedagogy I have found that using natural disasters and current events got students interested. We often took the approach of considering how to help people who have different disasters in their area- in project based learning.

@ErinBland6 @VIDASHARKS Where are you ordering the fabrics from? I am so impressed by this!

[Sarah Rines @RinesSarah]

@DrBradJohnson Yes!! @PrincipalEcker has always been supportive of this and it makes a huge difference for my family and I

[Sarah Rines @RinesSarah]

@cultofpedagogy I will feel more comfortable asking students to do makeup work that I can provide thanks to videos from this year! I think I will be much better at providing work for when I have a sub, too!!

[Sarah Rines @RinesSarah]

@biblio_phile One thing that I have started to do is have students submit their document along with a screencastify or flipgrid of them reading their work aloud. This has really helped them catch many of their own mistakes and I have the benefit of hearing them read their own work.

@katiemartinedu Connections to the students home- their pets, their support groups, and sharing our homes with them to make connections that might not have otherwise occurred as we find things we have in common instead of our differences.

@barryeducated @JamboardM I love this!!! You are the Jamboard queen!!
