Q4: This article breaks down three important principles of digital citizenship: respect, educate and protect. It also provides multiple resources that pertain to each aspect of digital citizenship and explains why each one is beneficial. #PSTPLN #EDUC331 educators.brainpop.com/2019/10/07/dig…

Hi #PSTPLN! An article I would like to share details the "Sky Ground" handwriting approach. I have personally used this, with the middle line as a fence, in Kindergarten classes and it has worked really well. Hope you enjoy and let me know your thoughts! theottoolbox.com/sky-ground-wri…

Hello #PSTPLN! I have found a great video that explains the benefits of reading aloud to children at any age. It highlights the value of in-person connection and communication, which are important parts of media balance. #EDUC331 @Bigler_Michelle youtube.com/watch?v=ZBuT2w…

Hello #pstpln community! I am interested in learning more about Waldorf and Montessori methods of education. Does anyone have any resources or experiences regarding these types of schools?

@baierl_abby How exciting! It's always great to see children grow in their confidence and abilities when working with them. Thanks for sharing! #pstpln

Celebrating Monday=celebrating the students I am tutoring! Today we worked on phonemic awareness skills. The first grader I have been working with has been quiet and unsure with her answers but today she was so confident and nailed those letters. #celebratemonday #pstpln

Today, I observed two infants participating in tummy time. They were propped up on crescent shaped cushions and were facing each other. It was so sweet to see them interact with one another by babbling, holding hands and touching each other's face. #celebratemonday #pstpln

Hello and happy Monday! I am currently enrolled in the Early Childhood Education program at Colorado State University. I am looking forward to developing my PLN and connecting with other educators and pre-service teachers. #pstpln
