I made a #bitmoji classroom! #teaching #teacher #teachertech

I actually do elf on the shelf with my students virtually! I record a video every day of my classroom and post it online

[Alexa Ocampo @eat_love_teach_]

Teachers! Any ideas for a virtual Elf on the Shelf? I've usually done an elf with a Kindness Challenge from Dec. 1st until winter break. I want to figure out how to make that virtual!

I doubt @brendonurie knew he wrote the 2020 anthem with The Roaring 20s. Thank you @panicatthedisco for spending 1,124 minutes with me this year on @Spotify. You are my #1. #2020Wrapped https://t.co/4qbRcRxHJQ

Technology in the classroom is a must. We must move forward with the times, lets get to it! Use apps like Nearpod and canvas, trust me you'll enjoy it! #ucf21literacies

[Alexa Ocampo @eat_love_teach_]

PSA. Your students saying “ain’t”, “finna”, etc. are cultural. Instead of “correcting” them, talk to them about code switching and how amazingly SMART they are for being able to codeswitch between the two. Valuing your students’ identities means valuing the way they speak.

@MrsMcMasterELA I've been wanting to do that too! I made a poetry lesson plan to be used as a ePortfolio and even made an example website. But unfortunately doesn't coincide with the CRMs. If you'd like to look at it and use it as an example, feel free! https://t.co/glQqyNdw03

[Ashley Gecewicz @TeachingItWrite]

@TravisELA23 AGREED! ESOL students should never feel like they are left out or put on the spot. I feel the best way to do this is treating all of the class equally and don't even make it noticeable when putting in accommodations

[Ashley Gecewicz @TeachingItWrite]

Do you think allowing ESOL students to have their content pages (i.e. Canvas/Google Classroom) translated into their native tongue but still having them answer in English is beneficial for them? #ucf21literacies

[Ashley Gecewicz @TeachingItWrite]

Finishing up Every Last Word by @tamaraistone and it is an amazing #yaliterature book. Teen dealing with OCD and popular friends discovering herself through poetry. Just got to a major plot twist and had to share! #keepreading ❤📖

[Ashley Gecewicz @TeachingItWrite]

Favorite strategy! https://t.co/blpdbExRo6

However, I feel like the #techfast definitely taught me that I waste a lot of time on social media when there are ways of bettering myself I should work on #ucf21literacies

[Ashley Gecewicz @TeachingItWrite]

Did a #techfast where I gave up social media for 24 hours this week and I know for sure I need to find better things to do to waste time during the summer #ucf21literacies

[Ashley Gecewicz @TeachingItWrite]

Another new website in the works! Check it, and my other websites linked in the home page, out! https://t.co/qc8fuUMNux

[Ashley Gecewicz @TeachingItWrite]

Oh man! I think I might actually play around with one of these!

What are your favorite ice breakers? https://t.co/C9ebe1cTyR via @cultofpedagogy #edchat #profdev

Developing: "grow or cause to grow and become more mature, advanced, or elaborate."

[Writer's Digest @WritersDigest]

Frolic: “make merry, have fun, romp playfully.” It comes from the Middle Dutch vrolyc, meaning “happy.” The original root (*preu-, “to hop,” which isalso the root of “frog”) gives “frolic” the sense of “jumping for joy.” #askwriters

[Ashley Gecewicz @TeachingItWrite]

I am trying my best to keep up with Twitter yall. Teachers have to teach themselves too to keep up with assignments :)

[Ashley Gecewicz @TeachingItWrite]

@PhoenixELAucf Amen to that! It's crazy how were told not to focus on vocabulary anymore
