Thank you @EileenHSanchez for my favorite @NJEA convention presentation of the day: Using Interviews and Historical Fiction to Teach Social Justice. Your story is fascinating, and the information you shared will be very helpful in my classroom!

@RoehriSStudies A7: I would say "lecture less, do projects more. Focus on activities that are fun and interesting to you and your S's. Trust yourself- you have really good ideas!" #engsschat

[Steph Sukow @Steph_Sukow]

A7: Have fun. Don't be afraid to fail. And most importantly, if you love them, they will learn. #engsschat

[Kelly Duddy @ms_duddy]

A7) As a NT, I am loving all the advice! Thanks everyone!! #engsschat

[Kelly Duddy @ms_duddy]

I firmly believe anything done in-person can be done virtually if you are flexible, innovative, and dedicated to research, exploration, and collaboration! #engsschat

A6) I try to keep class normal as possible by using tech over Google Meet; Presentation? @PearDeck Class Discussion? @padlet Graphic Organizer? Docs or @usekamiapp Partner/group work? @GoogleForEdu Jamboard, Docs, Slides, breakouts on Meet, etc. #engsschat

[Kelly Duddy @ms_duddy]

@kwillmann Love @padlet ! Used it last week to have my Ss collaboratively create a timeline of the 20th century to kick off our US History 2 class! #engsschat

[Kelly Duddy @ms_duddy]

@kjobecordedu1 I did Kahoot today with some Ss in-person and some online! I presented it over Google Meet, and it worked great! #engsschat

[Kelly Duddy @ms_duddy]

@Gr8tlyHaillie Today I tried breakout rooms on Google Meet by crest a Google Doc with names of S pairs hyperlinked to individual meets. I always match on in-class S with one online S (we’re doing hybrid). Going well so far! #engsshat

[Kelly Duddy @ms_duddy]

A5) This year I’ve also been relying heavily on @usekamiapp esp. with the new @GoogleForEdu features! I upload WSs there for students to write on digitally, and I also use it as a whiteboard to present over #GoogleMeet for my virtual Ss #engsschat

[Kelly Duddy @ms_duddy]

@Jenny_Osowski Love the connection to claim/evidence

[Kelly Duddy @ms_duddy]

@Jenny_Osowski Awesome idea!

[Kelly Duddy @ms_duddy]

@Steph_Sukow @Flipgrid Love this!

[Kelly Duddy @ms_duddy]

A4) I surveyed my Ss about their interests and learning needs/preferences. Our first ice breaker was discussing the origins of our names, and the second was writing a personal fact about them that I had to guess based off the info in the survey #engsschat

[Kelly Duddy @ms_duddy]

A3) biggest challenges are balancing all the prepa for two different content areas and getting to know other Ts—especially in the COVID era! #engsschat

[Kelly Duddy @ms_duddy]

@CHitch94 I can relate! I have to drive between two schools in the middle of the day haha (I kind of like the break for fresh air though)

[Kelly Duddy @ms_duddy]

A1) I’ve only been teaching for 4 days now haha, but exciting, innovative, and experimental #engsschat

[Kelly Duddy @ms_duddy]

NT here! Teaching HS US History 2 and French 1 & 2 #engsschat

[Learning for Justice @learnforjustice]

Today is Juneteenth—a day for celebration and remembrance that should be part of our collective knowledge of freedom struggles in this country. May our educators and youth continue the fight to ensure that the promise of freedom is delivered.
