@trisha_0920 @UvondaMitchell Organization will be a great start in promoting literacy. Cant read if, if one can not find an interesting read of choice.
I spoke with Ms. Moore our Media Specialist and we discussed raffle ideas for all students who meet AR goals. We talked about going out to different businesses for donations. #CF20CultureofLiteracy@UvondaMitchell
Teachers are able to record data on students' reading and math levels. They are able to target concepts and areas students are weak in. This allows them to create subject matter boot camps before Milestones.@UvondaMitchell#CF20QualityAssessments
The Star Test is administered every three months for students to prepare for Milestones. This gives teachers an idea of where students are, and if they are showing growth before they take the Milestone. #CF20QualityAssessments@UvondaMitchell
@JerryLeeHenry1 @waitinggirl123 @UvondaMitchell This module introduced many virtual resources that could be helpful inside the classroom. The Teaching Channel is definitely "fair" for us.
@NancyGr41612273@TrulyRakia I had to piggy back off this message because the thought of me trying to teach younger kids of that age to read would be a nightmare for me, the kids, the principal, the parents, and the brain.
Student: Coach Moore my stomach started hurting after running.
Me: Oh yeah, what happened?
Student: I think my Car-deo- vasular hurt.
I love my kids!
#CF20Phonics@UvondaMitchell
My kids love trying to use the "big words" they learn about in Physical Education. I get a kick hearing them trying to pronounce and define words while talking to their peers. Cardiovascular is a term my kids love to "chop up". #CF20Phonics@UvondaMitchell
@Coach_Zanders@UvondaMitchell I guess we all think alike, but truly it is just an easy way of teaching the concepts we have in PE...My kids were shocked to learn that a sprint meant to run fast. Now thatβs the only thing I hear. βCoach Moore, can we sprint our lapsβ. lol
A word wall is definitely helpful. We have a huge word wall in the gym that we allow kids to use as a word bank. When we ask questions we allow them to think through answers using the wall.
Using a word wall and discussing our spelling words as a class each week are two of the ways that I implement vocabulary into instruction. I also use mini lessons during reading groups to identify βtrickyβ words. #CF20VocabularyIdeas@UvondaMitchell
but they do not know the correct terms for the experience. When we teach a new term, I will pair actions with the term to increase thinking about the them. #CF20VocabularyIdeas@UvondaMitchell
While in Physical Education, I will teach my kids vocabulary by relating the health terms to what they already know. Some of the things we teach in PE are experienced daily by our kids, #CF20VocabularyIdeas@UvondaMitchell
@Natalie85338646@UvondaMitchell I can actually visualize Natalie speaking to her students by reading her rubric. She tells them exactly what she expects. It is very clean and organized.
@blankenship_mrs@UvondaMitchell Your rubric is easy to read and I know your kids will know exactly what you expect of them. I also like how you use GROW and GLOW. Good job!
