Played vocab BINGO with my 6th graders in our Human Environment Interaction Unit! Really fun way to reinforce vocabulary with Imagery. #gamify Thanks @historysandoval and @flippitynet! 💜

[Amanda Sandoval 💛 @historysandoval]

For our BINGO game I projected a slide of pictures, they used their printed cheat sheet (words with definition) to find the term

[Kathryn Greene @MsGreeneEdu]

These were heavy topics.

I wanted discussion-based tasks so I used the Head-Heart-Conscience Framework from @facinghistory as their collaborative task and had the groups set norms before starting on their playlist.

The most powerful feature that Twitter has:

Advanced search

Until recently I hadn't even heard of it, but now I use it all the time.

Here are 6 twitter advanced search features that will revolutionise the way you search for what to read: 🧵👇

“Learning for Justice’s Teaching Hard History: A Framework for Teaching American Slavery—available at both the K-5 and 6-12 levels—offers a foundation for teaching honest history through inquiry.” https://t.co/S3VqP6YEfr

[Amanda Sandoval 💛 @historysandoval]

To keep Ss attention while I’m doing direct instruction I’m having Ss create their own Google Slide Decks to take notes on. Also, teaching them a few design tips along the way.

My husband & I had a convo abt growing up, most of his Ts pronounced his name incorrectly all year long. He NEVER corrected them & they never asked him abt it

✨Pls learn how to say your Ss names. Embracing the diversity of our names is the 1st step towards inclusion.

A century ago, a prosperous Black neighborhood perished in the Tulsa Race Massacre at the hands of a white mob. Hundreds were killed. Buildings burned. Years of Black success were erased.

We recreated the neighborhood in 3D to show what was lost. https://t.co/WapNTamw0K

@GMcKinney2 @MrRondot Yes! It's so important to teach what scares us, to really listen to students' ideas, and to lean on community experts for support! ❤️

[Ms. Diana @PostClassroom]

I was initially afraid to teach b/c I don't know everything, but it's not about being the "sage on the stage," it's about facilitating kids' expertise. I can't wait to read The Expert Effect to learn new ways to help kids become the experts! #experteffectedu @MrRondot

[Zach Rondot @MrRondot]

📚🚀The Expert Effect is here!!! After 2 years in a shared Google Doc, it’s surreal to hold the proof copy in my hands. Our book is now available for pre-order on Amazon. 2 weeks away from the official launch, May 17th @GMcKinney2 #ExpertEffectEDU ⬇️ https://t.co/GcKsETPHKC

There is an intense obsession with “catching kids up.” That framing misses the mark. It inherently implies that kids are operating at a deficit. The goal should be to meet kids where they are at, differentiate to their academic and social-emotional needs and cultivate mastery.

[Ms. Diana @PostClassroom]

Learning is a journey, not a destination. Grades should reflect that! Create a culture of continuous improvement! ⭐️

[Monte Syrie @MonteSyrie]

Grades shouldn’t be gates.

Learning doesn’t end when dates pass & data are entered. Learning lingers & lives—it grows. And if kids want to return for another chance, a gate shouldn’t block their way. In truth, there should be a welcome sign above every door.

It’s our door.

@williamjones222 This is spectacular! What an incredible use of @Minecraft to imagine improvements in the safety, efficiency, and sustainability of the Gerald Ford Airport!

I definitely want to try this with my students!
