@matthew_allums I need to learn the ways they can use them offline too 😅 Thanks for sharing these! A weekly challenge sounds great- I may start a monthly challenge to get mine going.
A4) I REALLY want to try and step out of my comfort zone with my resource kids. I want to do something that ignites a spark- that they will remember- for years to come! Friends, please hold me to it! #2018DCMSKDI
A2) I hope we can carry on the connectedness to one another that we've experienced this summer! I think we can all really benefit from more team building! #2018DCMSKDI
A1) I've rarely assigned work that required the use of iPads outside of school as I know so many don't have internet access from home. This year, I would like to utilize SOMETHING which doesn't require them to have a connection... especially to help with reading! #DCMSKDI2018
A4) I really need some good ideas for my resource class this year! I’m hoping to focus on finding high interest, relevant reading material that will strike their interest. Throw some innovations my way! #2018DCMDKDI
A3) Vague and inappropriate pronouns. That just SOUNDS blah! I would like to try something innovative this year that incorporates more of a problem solving technique and less drill for tackling this standard #2018DCMSKDI
A1) EVERYONE likes to be recognized for hard work. I think PBIS has done a great job of rewarding our students and staff frequently. Countywide “Teacher Spotlight”, notes of affirmation, and little freebie staff passes are also great “feel good” rewards! #2018DCMDKDI
A2) With my sweet new Charlie at home, I will definitely be disconnecting from school after hours! It’s so important to our health, happiness, and relationships to take time away from work and enjoy the people we love at home! ❤️🏡 #2018DCMDKDI
A2) I got the alien look my first year of teaching when I also decided to bring back the school's drama program... solo! It was one of the greatest experiences I've had in my teaching career, and the show was pretty amazing- if I do say so myself! #2018DCMSKDI
A5) I would really love to explore ways to get my students digitally collaborating with students outside of our school... I want to help them broaden their horizons! #2018DCMSKDI
