"Where are we going?" If our PLC is not in agreement with where we are going, will we ever get there? 馃 We need a clear understanding to help stay the course! #PLCplus Collaboration with @bosstetter_edu = we are better together! @WCPSS and @JCPS_NC

MTSS is not more. It is doing what you have identified as what is best for your students: with proper teacher support with fidelity with data with problem solving to ensure every student is getting what they need. Let's just make sure what we are doing is working.

Straight up: @gimkit is super fun, especially in Thanos mode. And I didn鈥檛 survive the class snap. 馃お My students loved earning $ (getting answers correct) so they could stop me from playing. Seriously, if you haven鈥檛 tried it, you should. Kids will 鉂わ笍 Thanos mode. #Avengers

The idea of a 3D shape being laid flat to find surface area is a difficult concept to grasp... Until now! Loved these pull-up shapes we made today for surface area and volume! #svusdshines

Get automatic feedback from your students after each class. It could sting a bit at times, but at least it helps us reflect on our day and how the lesson was perceived.

How do you invite Ss to reflect? In this classroom, Ss chart their own understanding, so their T knows where to check in. #scichat (馃摳 via educator @myedexpert)

Wow! 馃槷 That is taking a diorama to the next level!
This is one of my favorite green screen projects! 4th graders used the green screen magic to report from inside their dioramas. They researched, rehearsed, built the diorama, filmed in the green studio & edited their videos using @DoInkTweets. #gslearning @gr8ful2teach
Great questions for PLCs to discuss!

Using some #EduDuctTape skills to make a HyperDoc combined with Forms and DocAppender to create a student paced unit where students create a reflective journal in Docs as they go. Hopefully this will free me up to support the LA in a unit which is usually very teacher-led by me.

Want each student in your class to be able to edit an assigned tab in a big #GoogleSheet? You can do that under "Set Permissions" in the "Protect Sheet" menu. #EduGIFs #DigLN #OnlineLearning #edtech ow.ly/8Kkw30juB3c

"we need to... build new habits (theirs & ours)" This is everything!!!!
In a standards-based class, grades are no longer used as currency, so we need to understand adolescent motivation, build new habits (theirs & ours), and develop strategies to help everyone see learning as the goal. @CorwinPress @rickwormeli2 #vted #sblchat @VTEducation @areibel
