We use PAW Bucks as a reward when our students take AR test and complete the required amount of iReady time. It’s a part of our PBIS system. The kids collect so many bucks and they can go to the PAW Mart and get goodies. #CF20CultureofLiteracy@UvondaMitchell
@Melissa_RTR@UvondaMitchell Do you like it? I’m still learning the background details as far as printing some of the lessons, but so far it’s been a breeze!
#CF20QualityAssessments we use IReady Reading Diagnostics testing to determine our students level of reading. A diagnostic test is given ever 3 months roughly. It shows whether students are improving or not throughout the program. @UvondaMitchell
@whit_911813@UvondaMitchell Really?! It’s a big thing in our building; and it’s actually helping us right now with being out of school. The only real downside is that they don’t take the diagnostic serious, but complain about it being too easy.
@ericajacksonhil@Coach_Zanders@UvondaMitchell I wish this was a tool that we could use with our kids in GNETS. Whereas, I understand you all’s struggles it would give our students an idea of how and what it is to pull material from a text and to write on it especially when it comes to typing. Thanks for the share!
@TrulyRakia@UvondaMitchell I’ve been exposed to star reading at my previous school, but the students don’t take it seriously. Because of that the scores don’t really give us what we need to serve them in grade level.
In my browsing storybird seemed like a really good resource that I can use during my classes lab time. It has picture books and I can create lessons from the material I have in class and what’s online. @UvondaMitchell#20DigitalResources
@countryque@UvondaMitchell I enjoyed this site during math classes. I’m not able to use it now because of our current environment, but it’s a great tool for kids both in school and at home.
A school superintendent said something profound in his address cancelling school for the next 3 weeks. He said: In the end, it will be impossible to know if we overreacted or did too much, but it will be QUITE apparent if we under reacted or did too little.
Hear those words....
#CF20TheoryInAction@UvondaMitchell Emergent Literacy Theory is more realistic for my class environment all of them are below grade-level. During our reading time I allow them the opportunity to pick out books that we read as a class. I figure if they pick it they’ll like it.
My rubric is based on the behavior goals in my babies IEPs. The two empty columns are used for progress monitoring should new behaviors or issues arise. It’s been hard to establish a rubric based on academics that they’ll understand in it’s entirety. @UvondaMitchell
@feefer128@UvondaMitchell Sight words are amazing!! I have the bingo game in my room and we also use them to test in Special Education to show progress based on reading goals.
@trisha_0920 @UvondaMitchell Perfect example of seeing what you want to see. But the fact that you gave him that simple nugget to adjust his thinking is great.
