@JunnieMckay @UvondaMitchell I like the idea a lot. If someone were to finish an assignment early, they can grab a book and read it too. Maybe include fun book with good content.

@countryque @UvondaMitchell Thanks WL. I actually just checked it out and found some math stuff on there. They have Vocabulary cards and a vocab game. I may use this soon.

#CF20CultureofLiteracy @UvondaMitchell I have decided to make a small bulletin board with short news articles or excerpts with math connections. I can possibly set aside time once a week to allow students to read said articles and write a paragraph about them.

@Natalie85338646 @UvondaMitchell I think MAP is the best one out there. Although their recommendations list is LONG!!!

@Melissa_RTR I have never heard of this before. Sounds really interesting. I am actually about to Google it. 😅

@blankenship_mrs @UvondaMitchell Thanks for making this tweet before me. I may have stolen the Gown and Glow from you.

[Prabhu Dwaram @DwaramPrabhu]

@Natalie85338646 @UvondaMitchell Simple and concise is how I like it.

[Prabhu Dwaram @DwaramPrabhu]

@1195Amanda @UvondaMitchell I agree. It is one of the few strategies that directly help with math instruction as well.

@whitney_kimbrel @UvondaMitchell I actually clicked on it to reply to your tweet, but I see it also has a Math section and I am sold. There aren't a plethora of activities for me, but the simple ones on there may help me provide interventions to some strugglers. Thank you.

#CF20DigitalResources @UvondaMitchell The think-aloud strategy in the Edutopia blog may be appropriate for Math. I can ask the students to think their processes out loud.

@countryque @UvondaMitchell This is single-handedly my favorite quiz platform in existence. I am waiting for them to come up with more upgrades and step up their game.

#CF20QualityAssessments @UvondaMitchell Our school uses the MAP Assessment to check for growth at the beginning, mid-year, and end of the year. It shows where students are excelling and tells us where they need growth and if they are college ready.

[Prabhu Dwaram @DwaramPrabhu]

@JunnieMckay @UvondaMitchell Have you tried Quizlet? I use it as somewhat of a portable resource. I use the preexisting cards they have and compile my own deck. Quizlet turns it into a few fun activities.

@waitinggirl123 @UvondaMitchell One of the things I noticed is that some of my students have memorized formulas by looking at it over and over again. I've seen a student close his eyes to draw a special 30-60-90 triangle even after I took it down. He's seen it often enough to remember what it looks like.

#CF20Phonics @UvondaMitchell We finished Quadratic Functions recently and the graph of a QF is called a Parabola. One of my students broke it up into two parts. He pronounced "para" and then added "bola" to the end. He then repeated then to pronounce it semi-correctly.

@JunnieMckay @UvondaMitchell I like the generality of this rubric. Can be used for any course. I personally like mine specific, but since this is just for daily bellringers, it is perfect.

[Prabhu Dwaram @DwaramPrabhu]

@Natalie85338646 @UvondaMitchell There is a good bit of detail in this. I guess it doesn't hurt to be as specific as possible.

[Prabhu Dwaram @DwaramPrabhu]

#CF20VocabularyIdeas @UvondaMitchell I will teach vocabulary in my class by creating a Word Wall and connecting the words to real things. For example, I teach the meaning of circumference by relating it to a fence.

[Prabhu Dwaram @DwaramPrabhu]

@Melissa_RTR @UvondaMitchell I may try giving it a shot with math because I have realized that my students understand these concepts by are not able to organize them or articulate them.

[Prabhu Dwaram @DwaramPrabhu]

For the past 2 weeks we've been using various forms of the Quadratic function to draw graphs. Now, we are using those equations and graphs to represent real-life problems. The rubric below will help students know what's expected of them. #CF20SinglePointRubric
