A4: Resources and how to best implement them would be amazing. Reinforcing the importance of respect and having students and teachers become more comfortable with the content so that we can create this safe inclusive environment for everyone.
A2: Students should feel comfortable being who they are without fear of being judged or labeled. As teachers, we have to make sure all students can see their worth and be proud of who they are no matter how different they might feel.
A1: Sarah Hong from Irwin. I'm so excited to be a part of this chat to create an inclusive environment where all students feel safe and comfortable expressing themselves. #EBedchat
A4: Changing up partners and mixing up groups helps keep discussions fresh! ‘Talking tokens’ protocol helps ensure all students have a voice in a group discussion and students can share or use their time to agree/disagree/add on. #EBedchat

A5: I love the Kagan strategies. My absolute favorite is Inside Outside circle. It takes practice but every single student is engaged. #ebedchat
A3 Technology really helps! We’ve been using SeeSaw to record observations and students have a choice to create a recording, note or video. Students love being able to choose what type of observation and can comment on their peers. #EBedchat
Differentiation is great and pushes me to be more creative when planning lessons. It can be exciting trying new things! But will it really reach everyone? How can I close the huge gaps some learners have and support them in the best way? #EBedchat
A1 Sarah Hong from Irwin, 5th grade Math/Sci. I remember my Math teacher had a project for Pi day where we could choose the activities we wanted to complete to earn points. Student choice made it so much more exciting! #EBedchat
A5: Having time to just talk at lunch or having fun team building activities during faculty meetings. #EBedchat
A3: Finding ways to reach that student and keeping connected to them. Depending on what the student needs, prioritizing what the most important skill of the lesson. If they don’t complete the entire journal page that day, it’s ok!#EBedchat
A2: During class meetings, we have open conversations about life as part of building our class community throughout the year. Just making the time to listen and make sure everyone’s voice is heard! #EBedchat
A1: Sarah Hong from Irwin. I walked away with the importance of building trust and being mindful of my responses to their actions. #EBedchat

We are trying to "up our game" in the classroom. I created my first digital quest as a fun review across all subjects... a virtual escape room! Ss work to complete tasks while I collect data. I'm super excited to see how this rolls out with the Ss! 😍#gamification #5thgrade
