@NungieLaura In case you didn’t have plans set in stone when you head back for the new year. Thought this might be interesting to you 😬

[Meghan Hargrave @lmkhowitgoes]

Instead of looking at writing for each individual component,instead of having students look at checklists for each little thing …try this! The house analogy and these three questions have helped me over and over again!Try it and #letmeknowhowitgoes #writing #teaching #educacion

So I simply cannot wait any longer to show off our students’ Adopt-a-Shelves!!! Some are still in progress, but the ones who have created their mini book displays completely by their own design have knocked it out of the park! Photos of individual shelves in 🧵

[Lindsey Bird @lindseynbird]

@NungieLaura is an expert at this!

[Lindsey Bird @lindseynbird]

@NungieLaura @JSeebauer Check these out…this may help those readers who spend time wandering through the shelves.

@JSeebauer @NungieLaura @LadyGraceByers Ohhhhh I like this—can’t wait to see what else you do during poetry month!

What’s on your plate??? Helping my seniors think through and manage their last semester of high school.

@NungieLaura Resources you might want to take a look through

[Casey Hackett @MrsHackett305]

Moving to online teaching is a lot of work, not a pivot. Here’s a thread of tasks, mini units or sequences I’ve created for various Eng courses for use online. Please check for grade/level appropriateness. I hope I can make someone’s life a little easier. Please share. 1/11

@NungieLaura Check it out!!

Penny and I started a Padlet of excellent mentor essays. See Penny's tweet:

@NungieLaura This looks fun for an activity at the beginning of next semester. I’m sure you could tie it in with some writing.

[Stephanie Howell @mrshowell24]

This could be a fantastic New Year Project!

[Lindsey Bird @lindseynbird]

@NungieLaura I feel like this could be used with character relationships somehow

I love when my writing and teaching overlap for aha 💡moments!

ELA teachers, here’s a cool assessment idea:

A mood board or aesthetic is used in the book/writing world to capture the essence or “vibes” of a book. Writers may do this at any point in the writing process.

[Lindsey Bird @lindseynbird]

@NungieLaura @JSeebauer This would be perfect for research!

[Lindsey Bird @lindseynbird]

@NungieLaura Start collecting some postcards on your travels. Could come in handy for a daily write 😉

[Lindsey Bird @lindseynbird]

@NungieLaura I could see a visual like this being beneficial during your research unit. Kids would know when to check in after they've formed an essential question, gathered resources...

[Livia Chan, M.Ed @LiviaChanL]

Love #PassionProjects #GenuisHour. This thread has a lot of great resources shared. Check it out! Thank you, Stephanie, for asking the question!

[Andy Sammons @andy_samm]

Have been working a lot on critical voice in literature essays recently. Made this poster and handout inspired by @FunkyPedagogy #teamenglish

[Lindsey Bird @lindseynbird]

@NungieLaura Save this to use in the future #characterstudy

@pernilleripp This year I’m trying “character recipe cards”: students list attributes and amounts (ex: Holden Caulfield 1 cup apathy, 1/2 cup loneliness, etc). Then the “directions” will be explanation of their choices.

@NungieLaura @JSeebauer I'm loving the idea of making it part of your classroom library
