Kicking off my PoetRetell Challenge (summarize a book in poetry format) for #NationalPoetryMonth! Students will create and submit to a @Flipgrid for the whole school to enjoy.

Research found that highlighting passages, rereading notes, and underlining key sentences is among the least effective strategies for learning and studying.
Among the most effective is having students generate questions about what they’re learning.
Introduced the #SDGs by having students program @SpheroEdu to simulate the difficulty some communities have with access to clean water. Looking forward to revealing our global goal for the #GoalsProject next week!
Finally got to be in the room where it happens!!!😍😍Happiness = #Hamilton @HamiltonMusical
8th graders created 3D scenes using only paper, glue stick, markers, and scissors - Success! #holidayscenes #makermindset Thanks for the inspiration @RebeccaLouHare from #istecreativeconstructorlab. Can’t wait until that conference is in person again!
Updated @ScienceBuddies #CricketWicketKnockdownChallenge using available materials. New class record!! #engineering #makers
Highlights from our 2nd annual Humdrum Halloween (inspired by jimi Halloween) - we used our #creativity to hack the “no costumes allowed at school” rule!

Think philosophically about what you want your grading practices to encourage and convey to students. Are your grades an accurate reflection of what a student knows? Do your grading practices align with your teaching philosophies? @edutopia edutopia.org/article/case-ag…
Favorite quote from today- When introducing the Conservation Island lesson from @calacademy, I asked, “What are some current threats to rainforests?” Response-“Gender reveal parties.” 😆 #savetherainforest
First day of our #SDG6 #SpheroEdu Challenge! Empathize with those who not have easy access to lean water by creating a path with obstacles from village to water source and programming Sphero to “walk” path and “carry” water back! #globalgoals
A couple of products from our project based on #ISTECCL @sherrip #PortraitsforChange activity using @AdobeSpark Love the results!
