This map is eye opening.

It shows the Great Pacific Garbage Patch and allows you to drag its shape around the globe for size comparison.

It's finally summertime, so I decided to start a thread of some of my favorite classroom projects, assignments, and ideas I made for my class this past year. Feel free to steal and use however you'd like. I'll keep adding stuff:

We are collaborators! Creating infographics based on all we’ve covered in social studies this year! #rvsed #CCAconnect

Hooray! Three months until I’m teaching in my own grade 5 classroom (but who’s counting 🙋🏼‍♀️) 🎉

Want students to remember something? Ask them to draw it! Research shows that drawing boosts learning by forcing us to process information in multiple ways: visually, kinesthetically, and linguistically.

Doing a silly lesson today:

In "A Whole New World," Aladdin and Jasmine pass the Pyramids of Giza at 1:40. 18 seconds later, they are seen in Athens. How many mph was the carpet traveling? How does this compare to the speed of the fastest jet?

This eloquent quote has instantly become one of my favourites, so beautifully articulating the power of education and summarizing how grateful I am to be educated. @tarawestover

[John Meehan @MeehanEDU]

Absolutely. Driver’s Test allows retakes.

So does SAT.

ACT.

GRE.

LSAT.

The Bar.

And the MCAT (up to 7x).

If your argument is “the real world” doesn’t allow retests, that’s a half dozen counterexamples that say otherwise.

Require check-ins before retesting. Then go for it.

My #CATCA2019 schedule is almost 50% math sessions (even though as a student myself, math was my worst enemy). Thanks for sharing your enthusiasm with me @d_martin05 !These changes are so exciting! Can I teach math full time?

[Jillan Klingerman @J_Klingerman]

This is such a great visual for parents!

The most impactful things every family can do is to simply have 1 meal every day together without technology

Yes!! And, “how do we teach to the diversity, rather than trying to change the diversity?!” @tweetsomemoore

Great first session from @AlbertaEE at teachers’ convention! As a former environmental/ecological field trip guide, I am so passionate about finding ways to get kids excited about the outdoors! So many benefits to exploring!!

Forgetting starts as soon as learning finishes, and that can be discouraging. So we looked at 5 research-backed ways to make your teaching stick in this brief animation I edited for @edutopia. #BrainBasedLearning

[Shalynn Tenbrinke @sbtenbrinke]

@misshawley4 Would you be able to send me these plans or the sheets/instructions you gave to the students? I would love to use it!
