First day of summer break = first PBL written for next year. Historical Murder Mystery Dinner. Can’t wait!

[Patricia Murphy @wpm777]

@suffernss @jcorippo @eduprotocols I’ve been using them in my PBL classroom and students are rocking it!

@andthoughshebe1 I was just thinking to my self about how to love teaching again. Struggling to find my purpose.

Ss are connecting the anatomy and principles of the Constitution and turning them into their own life size game of Operation: Constitution. #sschat #ssteacher

Who says Easter eggs are just for hunting?! Mrs. Murphy’s 6th grade S.S, classes used them in a unique way -a tool for reviewing content on ancient India. Communication and collaboration are just a few of the graduate profile characteristics embedded within this 15 min challenge.

@MoriartyHistory @eduprotocols @MrHExperience This is a great extension option when doing interventions! Thank you

[Patricia Murphy @wpm777]

Students didn’t realize it, but they are collaborating, thinking critically, and problem solving all while answering rigorous questions on ancient India’s geography. They completed their daily Fast and Curious using @gimkit “trust no one.” @eduprotocols #sschat #ssteacher

@GoTeachKY Mr. Jones (science) and Ms. Holland (social studies) @Lowesbluedevils were my biggest inspirations. They are the very reason I became a middle school science/SS teacher.

@SES_solomon I thought of you the entire time with your favorite song :)

6th graders completed a version of “Word Up” vocabulary over ancient India. Students could use playdoh to construct their image if they chose to do so. #eduprotocol #sschat #ssteacher

"It sounds like the pain you feel isn't coming from the fact that you're considering leaving teaching, but rather that you've lost something you once loved tremendously and can't figure out how to find your way back."

Today we began our unit on the US Constitution. Instead of just pairing students, they are organized into their own states, in which they created details. Our unit will be taught as one large Constructional Convention. Each person has an “elected” role within their state.

⁦@unfoldthesoul⁩ Complacency. It bombards, hinders, detracts, and tries to defeat us. It’s relentless. If we’re lucky, it’s forthright. But mostly, it’s subtle and discrete. It’s not just a battle; it’s a war. Our students are worth the fight. #2211 https://t.co/pVCbkVUfm2
