@KotaskaAudrey I honestly dont remember my teachers using brain pop but I use it with my kindergarteners and they absolutely LOVE it and so do I!

[Samantha @S_Cooper95]

@LovegrenKatie @000Dave I absolutely do! I love podcasts and diving into the educational ones has made me realize it could be a tool for students also!

[Samantha @S_Cooper95]

@RingeisenHannah I agree! All of those tools posses different ways of helping your students learn. It's great to have a variety always.

Every teacher wants to make sure they are making the best decisions for their students. Here are some qualities to look for when going through the digital content options!

While looking into digital content ideas for my students I came across this interesting image for teachers to keep in mind! #IM421 https://t.co/zrLwv9uEPq

[Samantha @S_Cooper95]

In my kindergarten classroom the thing students get most excited for (just under brain break videos by Jack Hartmann) are Brain Pop Jr videos! #digitalcontent #IM421

A skill that has been a challenge for my students was independence and believing in themselves when doing center rotations. They used to always come up to me and ask "where do I go next" or "what do I need there". It took a few weeks of work, but I am so proud of them! #IM421

[Samantha @S_Cooper95]

I will admit I am nervous to think of the first few weeks in my future classroom. What are the first things you teach your students to get them prepared for the school year? #IM421

[Samantha @S_Cooper95]

@RingeisenHannah This is something I have to work with my students on EVERY DAY. Just like I learned growing up, if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all.

[Samantha @S_Cooper95]

@warda__mahmoud Really good read! This may be something that a lot of teachers and parents don't ever really think about honestly and they should!

[Samantha @S_Cooper95]

@zoey429193072 Just like with every student that does online learning it takes more time management on their part and keeping themselves focused on what they need done. These have been tough skills for me to learn I don't even want to think about all the children that are being thrown into it.

[Samantha @S_Cooper95]

This is a very quick but true read on the skills students should learn for their future. #IM421 https://t.co/o7kRs560S4

@8erikarose Honestly I had to think hard about this one but tools that I use in my class of kindergarten are mini white boards, large pencils to help with grip and lined paper. There are obviously a ton more but I enjoyed thinking about all of the ways I don't use tech on a daily! Thank you.

[Samantha @S_Cooper95]

@taylor_c43 I think it is good to be able to incorporate any amount of tech in the classroom! They are all such a diverse tools that you can get so much out of!

[Samantha @S_Cooper95]

@victoria_bagley I have had zero experience with any of these. I will be looking them up now! Funny thing when I saw blackboard I thought you meant a literal blackboard and was surprise it was a top 5 still!

[Samantha @S_Cooper95]

I have been able to see the use of seesaw first hand at my work. Is this a tool that teachers enjoy using and think works well for their needs?? #IM421

[Samantha @S_Cooper95]

When you think about how much the world has changed throughout the years you also have to think about how education has with it all! #Teachingtools #IM421

[Samantha @S_Cooper95]

This site has so many different types of tools to use for teaching! Check it out. #IM421 https://t.co/nSLxZIX5ID

[Samantha @S_Cooper95]

@001haley Thank you! I will be saving this for future needs!

[Samantha @S_Cooper95]

@MissStrecker I agree that can be such a scary thing but everyone makes mistakes.. if you don't handle it correctly the first time learn from those mistakes!
