Why do we need salt? What does it do for us? What even is salt? Why is it so valuable? #stem

It has been fun learning about music integration this semester. I have gotten an opportunity to see how instruments, song, and movement an be included in a general classroom. After some reading, I wrote a clip about instruments within the classroom.

When I get uncomfortable, that’s a sign that I’m learning. So from now on, when I get uncomfortable, I’m going to start getting more excited, because that’s when I know I’m growing.

When coaching gymnastics this week, a girl pulled me aside saying, "Miss Emily, I learned something cool in art class today and I made one for you!" She handed me this portrait of me wearing a mask that unfolds to show my smile. Learning can still be fun, even when masked!

As we begin a new year / new semester, we are given another opportunity to assess our classroom learning environment? In the midst of a pandemic, how can we best teach our students? Check out my most recent blog post!

@Mr_LeDune Meeting the students where they are at, not just academically but also with interests. What is something they enjoy doing? How can you tie those interests into their educational experience? Learning doesn't have to be monotonous work. Make it fun! That is how you get engaged.

Technology allows out-of-school learning to be interesting and fun! Well-designed video games can create educational environments for students to pursue their interests while acquiring academic knowledge and skills. #GameBasedLearning #EdTech #K12Teacher

Using The Daily 5, I created an online anchor chart of the three ways to read a book: pictures, words, and story. This is a great reminder for students that reading is a process that can be as easy or challenging as it needs to be. #OnlineLearning #K12Literacy #GetLIT
