@misterlaserinko @CCMMSRedwolves We love culturally relevant content! The balancing act of teaching is real and I definitely felt that when teaching my own lesson. The visuals are also super fun!

This semester my partner and I had the opportunity to present a workshop on culture and point of view to a 7th grade ELA class. Our focus was on how our environments influence the way we are, the stories we tell, and the values we hold. #ED204SLP @CCMMSRedwolves

@Mr_Umbarger @CCMMSRedwolves @NCStateCED Hey, I was a part of this project! It was fun working with you Elliot as well as Mary Kate. What do you think went best with our lesson and what do you think didn't go well? I personally think our biggest strength was our ability to improvise throughout the lesson when needed.

@deutschmitsonia @CCMMSRedwolves @NCStateCED I felt that with confidence within the classroom and I'm glad you were able to build it up some with this experience. While you taught a lesson about English, would you say there were any connections between this lesson and teaching German lessons in the future?

As a future German teacher, this helped me build up the confidence to teach a subject that I was not as familiar with. #ED204SLP

In November, one of my ED 204 peers and I led a lesson at CCMMS about figurative language to a sixth grade English class. This lesson was quite a refresher for myself and was designed to reinforce what they had already learned.

@NCSUbailey What a fun lesson! I can see in the image that it looks like students are engaged and are working collaboratively in groups which is awesome. Did you guys talk about education needed in order to get into different careers within robotics?

Thank you CCMMS, Mr. Woods, and ED204 for this firsthand experience of working with students. #ED204SLP

We had the students make a paper airplane without the design process at first, then gave them context of the Design Process through our lesson. Our launch fostered competition between students, which encouraged them to build a better airplane than their peers.

@mslynch_teach Yes! I almost posted this quote for my Twitter post. Our students should be valued for more than their test scores and our curricula should reflect that. #ED204

@Charlton_Tech I also think of my favorite teachers when I look back on school life, and they all got to know me on a personal level. Getting to know your students' matters!

Through the semester, we’ve been reading Becoming A Teacher in #ED204. So far, my favorite quote is at the end of chapter 5. When I think about my time in grade school, my favorite teachers were always the ones that got to know me on a personal level.

We don’t know exactly everything going on in their personal lives, and so we have to give grace and be respectful despite when things may seem personally disrespectful towards us teachers (ie being tardy or sleeping during class). #ED204

I like this quote because even though we are working with children and young adults, they are still human.

Currently reading "Becoming a Teacher" by Melinda D. Anderson in ED 204. One quote I resonate with is when Ms. Hall, the teacher interviewed in "Becoming a Teacher", says we have to be compassionate to the students coming into our classrooms. #ED204

I know that teaching isn’t an exact science, but how do we handle receiving conflicting advice and selecting what principles we should use in our classrooms? #ED204

Question for teachers: Some of my education classes give conflicting teaching advice. For example, in one class I was told that decorating your classroom helps to make it a more inclusive space, while another said that decorations tend to be distracting. #ED204
