I like the confidence indicator template using Zoom annotation tools. Can be a great way of formative assessment. teche.mq.edu.au/2021/07/4-idea…

Interesting read...lucky those who have been infected already?? news.com.au/world/coronavi…

@BrionyScott I hope there will be change, towards greater flexibility. Thinking of the kids for whom school is such a necessary social interaction, but for whom 5 days of it is overwhelming. To attend in person for a few days and remotely for a couple would be the perfect.

A colleague and I put these together for Stage 4 students to pick and choose from as supplementary activities. No computers required!

@AlexLaurence3 @cronullahs @c_michelle2795 @GeorgeHarrisson @Learningwithlib That's so thoughtful!

Just finished conducting 9 training sessions for teachers on @nearpod ...the hidden treasure. Highly recommended for teachers who want to #engage their #learners remotely or in the classroom. Love it! @AlexLaurence3 youtu.be/cYVHSAqEeMM

@PatchettAnn @Maurs_5 @NSWEducation Or put 2 teachers in a bigger classroom! Did it once and it was beneficial for the teachers and the students. Double the expertise, better class dynamics, shared workload and reduced stress. Collaboration works for teachers too!

@Maurs_5 @NSWEducation What about giving all temps permanent jobs, there are so many in the system or waiting for jobs. Also we should reduce class numbers for Years 3-6, they deserve the same conditions as K - 2 staff

Here is an idea to assist with teacher shortages. Change the visa and residency rules to allow teachers from other countries to become permanent residents. I have so many Irish and English friends who would love this opportunity @NSWEducation

@BecWest81 Totally agree! They always get sos excited by that STEM activity!

Making catapults will never not be fun! 😁

@BecWest81 What a gorgeous space!

Starting the day with Staff Smiling Minds 😀

By explicitly teaching how to avoid distraction, combat procrastination and study effectively, educators entrust students with the necessary skills for educational challenges faced both virtually and in person. kqed.org/mindshift/5764…

@ndennaoui9 @harringtonst_ps @YNWA111 He was a lovely man indeed, that actually cared for the kids he served. May he rest in peace.
