Hearing @Meghan_Trainor talk dismissively about public schools is so disappointing. So many students have to go to public school because they don’t have the money or accessibility for private school or homeschooling. Teachers are superheroes doing the best for their kids.
I am devastated hearing about what happened at UVA. All schools deserve to be safe. Nobody should be afraid to go to school. Nobody should have to risk their lives going to school.
Today in my field placement I used the #teachlikeachampion technique “circulation” to keep students engaged and provide feedback on their irregular preterite conjugation activity! Its great to use the techniques I’m learning in a real classroom #ElonEd

As I review the information for @scomorrison class today, I’m wondering how I can conduct assessments outdoors in my foreign language classroom. Does being outside increase student achievement and reduce stress? #ElonEd
#ElonEd “To make grading more meaningful, grades should reflect a range of criteria that make up student learning.” Why has it become so normal in education to create one final grade when students show their learning through many different criteria?

A2. In all of my Spanish classes at Elon we are using breakout rooms on zoom. These are super helpful and very easy to use to have small group conversations with peers. #langchat
#pretchat A3. If a student was stressed about my class, I would tell them to take it easy- only work on a little bit of assignments each day and take care of yourself. Overloading is stressful!
#eloned A3: Students, teachers, and parents can get to know each other through social media chats such as this one or through a virtual meeting site like zoom!
#eloned A2. Over the course of 2020, I have seen and been a part of more discussions about antiracism in my classes that typically do not cover the topic of racism and over social media platforms.
#ElonEd In the past few months, I have come to realize that #antiracisteducation needs to become a necessary topic in schools around the nation. Not just universities, but in all grade levels!
