@shadualz @RutgersAltRoute 2/2 ...difference between combat sport and brawling in the hallway. It was an interesting gateway into emotions: where these feelings come from and how to pause before reacting.

@shadualz @RutgersAltRoute 1/2 sure. Increased security helped. Strict enforcement of rules and consequences. Expulsion of bad actors. After that, discussion. A lot of kids are UFC fans so we did a unit on Jorge Masvidal's extreme training and diet discipline and discussed the ...

@RutgersAltRoute with colleagues, we try to keep tabs on students that can be problematic and focus on ways to help them be more amenable to others. With parents, calls, conferences, texts to discuss behavior.

A2 - to create an inclusive environment, students must know that they will be treated as equals and must feel safe to take chances in class. It's important to preclude and kind of mockery and let students it's never ok.

A1 - I always try to be positive to teach healthy social/emotional skills. Space is sometimes an issue in separating kids that have a problem. Space is going to be interesting when school reopens under the new rules.

@RutgersAltRoute A2 For students with limited internet access, I mailed work packets to them to be completed. Some students would then take pictures of their work and send it to me on Remind through their phones (which used data, not wifi). #AltRtEd #EdTech

Well, I'm hoping the school can coordinate something but I'm also hoping the parents become more familiar with communicating via email and Powerschool.

I mostly communicate with parents via phone...either WhatsApp or voicecalls. SOmetimes they send emails but our parents are particularly technologically challenged.

Benefits are the wide variety of materials available which also can be a challenge because it's too much. We need more uniformity as a school, district, state, etc.

Connectivity, getting students engaged, holding students accountable.

we have a PLC meeting twice a week. We share docs via Google Drive. We collaborated on the final project of the year. We also had a social justice project where we all voted on the best project and published them to the school website.

barriers are engaging the students, motivating them and actually getting them to show up. Overcome barriers by making lessons as fun and engaging as possible, games, apply lessons to things that interest them.

@LoathesTym @RutgersAltRoute my niece and nephew (6 and 7) love Minecraft...it seems like the future but how much is too much?

we use Google classroom as our primary VLE. I also integrate Flipgrid, screencastify, pixton and various virtual tours and online events.

The more time students spend engaged in learning activities, the more they will achieve. If peer collaboration can be worked into their learning activities then all the better. Some resources might be Kagan Cooperative Learning Structures #AltRtEd #PeerCollaboration

Social class affects shelter in place. Students can live in crowded places. As an entryway to learning I use: music, comics, video games, tv shows, zoo animals. Anything I think might interest a modern teenager.
