Huge shoutout to my awesome 6th graders for making me get out of my comfort zone today! Holding that snake at our Rainforest Animals Assembly will definitely be the highlight of my week! @BearCreekEtown @etownPAschools

@KreppsKinder Hahaha yes!! Then I figured out I could take a selfie as the cover… mind blown & world changed 🤯😂

Did anyone else try to start smiling at the end of their Flip videos so the cover picture doesn’t look like this? 😂 #ED5670

Powerful thoughts from the US Dept of Ed in this week’s reading for #ED5670 about the way educators can use technology to “make classroom learning more relevant and authentic” & expand learning communities far beyond the classroom.

Love this idea! It’s always so cool for Ss to reflect back on how far they’ve come using something they created #ED5670

@teacher2teacher Have a wonderful summer and know that this room will always be a place you can come back to (as long as you have permission from your new teachers) and be welcomed with open arms. ❤️

How do you bid farewell to your Ss? #TeacherHeart

@teacher2teacher Don’t be afraid to ask for help. It’s a sign of a good teacher, not an incompetent one. The solutions to a lot of your problems are walking the halls of your building right now.

If you could travel back in time, what would you tell yourself? #TeacherTwitter

@HistoryJEB My Ss and I love @gimkit ! Super interactive and really takes the game play to another level. There’s tons of game modes & a few times I’ve done a collab with my Ss where they got to make the questions! They loved it!

What is everyone’s go to online interactive review game that they like to use in the classroom? #ED5670

@OnlineMissG Yes! I found it to be a great way to check for understanding throughout a video rather than just a quiz at the end. Also holds Ss accountable for paying close attention throughout.

Have you ever used EdPuzzle to enhance your online lessons? #ED5670

When summer PD is still all too relevant… learned today how @Newsela can be differentiated for reading levels after posting my #ED5670 flip about tech for differentiation just yesterday

Love that this summer PD gave me a chance to preview some ways ChatGPT can be used for education! It’s like they read my #ED5670 intro discussion!

What better way to kick off #ED5670 than a summer trade day all about student engagement! Excited to learn about more ways to engage Ss… and maybe some cool tech tools along the way!

Love this idea! Takes vocab to a whole new level of student understanding! #ED5670

Cool idea for any SS teachers to have Ss share research & jigsaw… I’m seeing some famous philosopher Netflix series in my Ss’ future… #ED5670

So cool that Flip has added to their comment feature! What a great way to get Ss to continue interacting and providing peer feedback as well as T feedback #ED5670

@ksantoro17 @EtownAreaMS So glad you were able to come in and check it out!! I have LOVED seeing how engaged and excited my Ss are about Mesopotamia!

Q: How can I help my 6th S’s visualize types of gov that are brand new to them - like theocracy, oligarchy, democratic republic, monarchy, etc.? A: GUMMY BEARS!

@teacher2teacher @DTutor01 @YActivism101 @jdangelo16 @kyriakixt @anna_skaret @MrLofink @harrell_art @jessnormhill @ketterer7th @MrsTysinger @mrslandis5 Take them on a tour with Google earth and Google travel! They can use your guide to explore the world’s coolest places and plan their trip on Google travel. My s’s loved doing this with Ancient Greece!!

How might you plan a virtual, international field trip? ✈️💻 Pass your recommendations on to T @DTutor01! #InstantPD #PLN #EdChat #VirtualLearning

These 6th grade cartographers are hard at work in their pods creating maps of the world using only butcher paper, construction paper, and a glue stick. #problemsolvers #tearacontinent #6thGradeSuperstars

@teacher2teacher Helps students find the power in their own voice!

When you look back at your #TeacherLife, what's the number-one thing you hope you will have accomplished? #TeacherHeart #LoveTeaching

@BearCreekEtown @etownPAschools
