@CalCTC @GavinNewsom How do you expect teacher candidiates to finish their programs without the changes necessary to make assessments equitable under these unprecedentand times? This is unacceptable. You have to do better! #SAVEOURFUTURETEACHERS #CSUSMMIDDLELEVEL28

Wikipedia? Now with the idea of needing more sources to be deemed as trustworthy. Oh, I may need to look at more articles. Especially, after reading the fake news article. However, if this article is to be true I think I'd be open to using it in my classroom.. #csusmmiddlelevel28

Smith: She calls for Middle School teachers to action! The action for your students and to advocated for the young adolescent minds! Smith's, "live to love them and leave them," is extremely powerful and it was exactly what middle schoolers need. #csusmmiddlelevel28

FAKE NEWS: Fake news needs to be taught and not just stated, "This is fake news!" It is not something u should just encourage for ur students 2 look into the actual sources, but to actually find multiple sources. Teachers play an important role in civics #csusmmiddlelevel28

Educkention: I don't think teachers should make students do assignments that impact their grade if the teacher isn't willing to read and grade it. Unlike the author where they say if you can grade everything you aren't assigning enough

Students increase reading rate is less important than their comprehension of the reading. However, there is a link to fluency and how it allows your readers to create meeting at the text and reading the text multiple times influences comprehension. #csusmmiddlelevel28

Resistance to read: so we must change it. 1. Be the place where you students are comfortable. 2. reading environment is key 3.selection of the text is important 4. Have your student self-reflect

Thomas: I love having students write a retell of the story And putting themselves in. This will definitely, give the students a lot more power of how to write and feel when they're reading. Sometimes I use the idea that I am in the story and what would I be. #csusmmiddlelevel28

Gawton: multiple genres in writing compared to braiding. When students can bring different styles of writing to get the point across. "The bottom line, they all use multiple genres to communicate their content," when you are naturally creating a great essay. #csusmmiddlelevel28

[Steffanie R Gross @SteffanieRGros1]

Gawron: Common Core method of argumentation, fits perfectly in the style classroom where students control their learning. It is the teacher's job to give them strategies. Students should be allowed multiple ways to solve the problem.

Is important for a teacher to realize different types texts require pairing up students, so they can have discussions on complex ideas. #csusmmiddlelevel28 it allows students to make connections to text and personal life experiences.

[Steffanie R Gross @SteffanieRGros1]

It is very important for students to be reading different styles of text. However, it's even more important to have different types a varying levels of difficulties of text. It's about the proper combination of scaffolding instructional strategies. #csusmmiddlelevel28

Gradual release of learning is a great way of teaching to me, if you set up the right teaching strategies For your students to learn. For example, give them tools to do close reading, annotation, and structured conversations #csusmmiddlelevel28

Beers: Academic vocabulary is Key understand and content and can making connections. Just like activating prior knowledge is important to make sure that you continue to make connections and relearn and rediscover what the academic words mean. #csusmmiddlelevel28

There's some great resources out there to integrate technology within the classroom. . However, it is important for each teacher to showcase the importance of safety and good technology Habits online. #csusmmiddlelevel28

Graphic organizers show and importance to visual literacy. It's about the ability to interpret visual displays of information and being able to accurately connect Concepts. F&F Make great connections to different types of subject and how they can use it. #csusmmiddlelevel28

Fagen: discusses the importance of scaffolding for ELL and how it about giving your students reading strategies that work for them and will benefit them. #csusmmiddlelevel28

Beers: I like the multi-purpose idea for bookmarks making them interactive an exploratory instead of just marking a page where they left off. Students will be able to look at words or phrases more in-depth at the author's ideas and phrases. #csusmmiddlelevel28

[Steffanie R Gross @SteffanieRGros1]

Beers: The "Dear George" letter really it was heartwarming. . It's one of the reasons why I want to be a teacher. And it's nice to see how much she's learned through this career choice and I look forward to it!! #csusmmiddlelevel28

"Writing Next..": It is important to have your students engaged and critical thinking. Teachers can have students do this, if they create effective strategies within their classrooms.
