Great Things I Noticed This Week:
*Vocabulary review with Kahoot!
*Class discussion about Digital Citizenship...students shared how they have been affected by comments on Facebook (yes, we have kids on Facebook!), texting or even some things on Todaysmeet. The discussion emphasized that things they post can be forever, (which can be for good, or bad) and how to behave appropriately online just like in real life. They also watched THIS video clip.
*During a social studies lesson, the teacher asked a question, gave 1 minute for turn-and-talk and then called on a few students to share their responses. Not a big deal, right? But what I noticed is that the three students called on were all 3 struggling readers that I know likely couldn't read the content independently, but with turn-and-talk were able to gain better understanding to be able to think/respond to the content.
