It is hard to be a good teacher. One needs to have unconditional motivation for educating all. #goodteacher

@Jotform I am in need of help! I'm using Jotform for a school event registration and we have a BIG problem. I can't find a service number, but I sent in a help request. PLEASE PLEASE HELP!

A9: I think I would use the 4 Shifts as a framework for creating some of the projects that I like to use in my class.

A8: I use technology in many facets, but with this project they do have to perform research for one of the parts. The creation of the published versions is up to the students, some like to use tech some like the old pen/paper approach.

[Jennifer Becker @jbecker220]

A7: Yes. I encourage the students to go beyond. I like to show past projects so they can see the work other students have created.

[Jennifer Becker @jbecker220]

A6: I create the activities in the project based on the standards, but the students have the choice of which activity from the list they want to complete.
#gfedchat

[Jennifer Becker @jbecker220]

A5: Somewhat. There is an activity which ties the themes to real world topics and the students have to apply evidence from the book to the real world situation.

A4: Yes. I used to have everything formatted for the students, but I’ve learned that everyone has a different vision. I leave the final draft open for the students.

[Jennifer Becker @jbecker220]

A3: Yes. I plan the assessments to be engaging and tied with what the students want to create.
#gfedchat

[Jennifer Becker @jbecker220]

A2: The lesson is my summative project for “The Outsiders” where students choose the activities to complete. They choose based on their ability and interest. Each activity topic ties with these elements.

[Jennifer Becker @jbecker220]

A1: I’m most confident with higher-level thinking in my classes because of the degree of lessons which I use in my classroom. I push my students to really use their “gray matter”.

Q7: I love the question, but sadly I don’t think I do.
#gfedchat

[Jennifer Becker @jbecker220]

Q6: I do all of the following during my class. It really lends itself to having open discussions about texts, what’s happening in the texts, and making connections.
#gfedchat

[Jennifer Becker @jbecker220]

Q5: The students will share or make connections to other texts based on the conversations we’re having in class. I always ask for recommendations from my students, they LOVE to share their opinion!

Q4: We have reading ingrained into our RT time every week. The English teachers incorporate SSR as apart of their weekly planning.
#gfedchat

[Jennifer Becker @jbecker220]

Q3: I teach solely Literature, so I feel that my ability to foster the love of reading is ingrained in my content. I love being able to share different genres and stories with my students!

[Jennifer Becker @jbecker220]

Q2: I have abandoned the book “Pride Prejudice & Zombies”. I chose to abandon because it didn’t/couldn’t keep my interest.
