@jmattmiller I love using Google Drawings and Slides as graphic organizers, but moved away from it because Docs has voice typing and many Ss need accessibility.

In case anyone needs a good 15-minute (maybe 20) opening activity next week centered around retrieval practice, here's one of my evergreen go-to activities that works for any content area at any point.

It goes like this...

Guaranteed to be one of your favorites, the dynamic duo of #PearDeck and #GoogleClassroom opens up a door of endless possibilities! 🔄 Checking on student responses is a breeze. 🌬️ See how 👀 https://t.co/BybCdo1Nit

Did you know that #GoogleDocs has a built-in citation feature? This can be a GAME CHANGER for student research papers! Here’s a resource I made that breaks down the process. #GoogleEdu #highered #EdTech #AcademicTwitter #edutwitter #edchat #GSuiteEdu

As with technology, data in and of itself does not “fix” education problems. What matters is what you do with it pedagogically. Important read for everyone involved with school data work. #edtech #edtechchat

@DrLGray2010 @burgessdave @MiraLoma_Middle Hattie found that teacher student relationship has a .72 effect size on student achievement. Using #eduprotocols smart start activities like Frayer a Friend is a way to establish academic skills and build relationships at the same time. @mhebern @Joncorippo

From #innovateinsidethebox by George Couros and Katie Novak. This resonates with me @MiraLoma_Middle #jusdshares

@DrLGray2010 @burgessdave @MiraLoma_Middle State testing this year has me reflecting and thinking about what I didn't do this year and beating myself up about it. @Catlin_Tucker and @jmattmiller in The Balance podcast helped me this week. We can't teach it all. We can make sure we use strategies that work. Rapport does.

Meet students where they are at - but deliver curriculum at pre-pandemic standards regardless of gaps. Design engaging lessons but don’t plan anything so important it can’t be missed bc of illness. 4/🧵

😲 @benlcollins has authored a Google spreadsheet that works like an Etch A Sketch! Instead of twisting knobs, you click checkboxes for moving Left, Right, Up, and Down. Read his post and make a copy so you can try it yourself.

Thank you @_skycountry for the hot cocoa, craft and story time! #jusdshares

When students are pushed beyond their comfort zone to solve problems that are hard—but still within their ability—learning outcomes improve. How do you find this sweet spot?
