In my classroom, some of my favorite reviews were journaling and admit slip reviews from previous skills. I would have loved to incorporate more technology-based review. #Spart1EduChat

It is so awesome learning from each other!

A1: PearDeck wasn’t available during my time in the classroom but I’m excited to offer it as a badging opportunity for our teachers tomorrow!

Thank you for joining #Spart1educhat Please respond to question 1.

I hate that I’ve often resorted to giving guided questions, gotcha quizzes, etc. when assigning anchor text reading, but I’ve finally found another method that lets me check for understanding and allows Ss to flex their creative muscles as well! #criticalcreativity #nctechat #PLN

A5: Self-reflection is essential! Using digital tools can make it even more engaging and interactive for students. Their world revolves around technology---we have to alter our teaching to fit their needs! #d1transforms https://t.co/XSzjjQplMx

A4: @Newsela is a platform that T's are using to incorporate real-world, current events into the curriculum. It houses rigorous texts that come preloaded with higher-level thinking questions and writing prompts! #d1transforms https://t.co/HhpcipO0YB

A2: @Flipgrid is an awesome way for students to promote oral language and storytelling. It’s fun and engaging for students, and even throws in a little public speaking action! #d1transforms https://t.co/KGQjII1WYg

Q2: #d1transforms @ktkelly14

[Whitney Mabus @Wgmabus]

A1: Blogs are a great way for readers to respond and interact with others. Students seem to be more engaged when they can “publish” work, rather than just submitting it to the teacher. #d1transforms https://t.co/gGDCTqIngp
