@smorrisey This could definitely turn into some sort of bingo or game! ✨

Then you could quickly teach a root like "liber" meaning free through a morphology matrix. I believe this can be scalable at the secondary level. I wonder what secondary teachers think?

Science of Reading - Secondary Level Teaching morphology at the secondary level in the content areas is one action that would probably get buy in from secondary teachers. Where do you start? I would think of morphology by topic area. In NYS, 8th graders learn about WWII.

@alicekeeler This is something I have been working on in my district. SAMR is so easy to grasp and connects to Bloom’s perfectly! Redefine learning at the top tiers!!

Is the purpose of AI to make faster worksheets? I hope not. Thinking SAMR how can AI innovate what is possible in our classrooms? #AIteacher

“When I like the teacher, I want to do their work. And I’ll be like, ‘I can learn this.’” 💪 Research shows that students who feel safe and supported by adults at school are better able to learn. #HowLearningHappens

@bohndrake @BFC_530 @oldbay84 …and accelerated reading can be added to this list of things that make children hate reading! However, my adult children (27, 23, 20 & 19) love reading again! I hope this gives you a glimmer of hope! ✨

@BFC_530 @oldbay84 Morning all! Interesting question. I read everyday to my two for years. They also saw me reading all the time. It pains me to say that they now hate reading. I think the reading logs and annotations and all the things in school backfired. So my answer is: who knows #bfc530

Its Tuesday #bfc530 Today's ? from @oldbay84 What literacy habit/hack would you share with a family of a preschooler to get them prepared for success in school?

Edit the prompt with your trade and assignment!

I used AI to create a rubric. However, this is not the very specific formatting needed to put into Google Classroom. Use GC Rubric by Alice Keeler to select "Format AI Rubric" to make it ready to import into Google Classroom. I will demonstrate this tomorrow, join or watch the recording afterwards otis.teq.com/events/preview… @OTIS4educators #GoogleEDU #GoogleClassroom
