@DrP_Principal 🙋🏻‍♀️ I can help!

My Ed Psych students have an assignment to interview an educator (requires answering 10 questions). If you are willing/able to be interviewed, please let me know. I really appreciate it!

BLHS SPED Ss are participating in an @unruly_studios #HourofCode with @Patriots star & 2X Super Bowl champ @Jonathan_Jones2 to break down barriers in CS! 🏈 💻 Join me in the Get Active Coding Challenge to get students coding and moving! Learn More ➡️ bit.ly/3wTi83z

what makes kids love reading? wrong answers only.

@TeachBoost Thanks for the share @teachboost!

@LindaEdwardsi They absolutely will!!

A4 I’m looking forward to introducing students to Splats this fall. I think they will love coding with Splats and testing their programs 🎉🎉😀#SplatsChat

@MelissaDarrow @unruly_studios @cryerskids Thanks for chatting!

Now that's a wrap! 🎁 Special thanks to our Splatastic hosts @cryerskids and @MrsAshleyBFort! See you next month for another energetic conversation with our #UnrulyEducators! 🥁🥁🥁 @MelissaDarrow is our #SplatsChat raffle winner 🤩 Look for a DM from us to claim your prize!

@margojantzi Yes! Must make it meaningful for Ss. They always want to know why they are doing something!

A4 I'm looking forward to using splats in our elementary library to keep learning engaging and meaningful. #Splatschat

@LindaEdwardsi Thanks for joining us!

Thank you for the great chat tonight 😀#SplatsChat

Thanks for joining us! #splatschat

@cryerskids @unruly_studios I too am hoping to let the Ss take the reins and create their own games. 🤞🏻

@unruly_studios @MrsAshleyBFort I will be working with other classroom teachers to show them some of the exciting learning using Splats. I also will work with Ss to create their own Splats game (I hope!).

Q4: What is one thing you are looking forward to trying out this school year? 🤗✨ #SplatsChat #SEL @cryerskids @MrsAshleyBFort

@cryerskids @unruly_studios Tell her to let the Ss help her figure it out. 😁

@unruly_studios @MrsAshleyBFort I explain to teachers that technology is not just cool, but adds a higher level of thinking and encourages students to help each other figure it out. One teacher always tells me she can't figure out the tech. When students naturally help each other she is amazed!

Q3: What are ways technology enhances your classroom culture? 🖥⚡️ #SplatsChat #SEL @cryerskids @MrsAshleyBFort

@MelissaDarrow @unruly_studios @cryerskids Yes!! I’m constantly remind Ss and Ts of this! We should all be lifelong learners!

@LindaEdwardsi Ss can learn so much h from their peers!! 💗 it!

A3 I found last year when students were stuck solving a problem with their coding they would ask for help from their peers 😀 Lots of problem solving, critical thinking, perseverance, and collaboration #SplatsChat

A4: My focus has always been S learning over tech, but this year I want Ss to be intentional in using tech to create and not just to consume. #Splatschat

@MelissaDarrow @unruly_studios @cryerskids 💖 this!! Teamwork and sportsmanship are soooo important to instill in Ss!

Q2: How do you combine SEL and games in your class? 🕹🙌 #SplatsChat #SEL @cryerskids @MrsAshleyBFort

@cryerskids @unruly_studios I work a lot with SPED Ss and I love the successes they all can have with Splats!!

@unruly_studios @MrsAshleyBFort As a specialist, I focus on coding and computer science. My students last year really liked being able to code simple programs that let them be successful and play with it afterwards. Splats let them start with simple algorithms.
