7 Ways I’ll Work Smarter in my Next 1:1 Classroom

7 Ways I’ll Work Smarter in my Next 1:1 Classroom

July 4, 2014

After using a class set of Chromebooks for the whole second semester of the school year in my sixth grade Humanities class, my brain is spinning with all of the “next time I’ll…” ideas. Here are a few: 1. Simplify & standardize the creation of students’ usernames and passwords. If students are creating an account that is linked to their… Read More

Got a Case of Website Amnesia?

Got a Case of Website Amnesia?

February 15, 2014

I frequent a Sunday night Twitter chat, #edchatri, where amazing educators from all over the US help me approach the coming school week with the right attitude. During these chats, I discover amazing resources shared by fellow educators, who I now consider to be my colleagues, despite the geography that separates us. There are some Sunday nights that the quantity… Read More

Let’s Get Blogging, Kids!

January 23, 2014

Getting my sixth grade students set up with their own individual blogs was a lot getting myself in the water for the first time on a beach day. The worst are the days I never make it into the water- I regret it all the way home! And just like when I finally take the plunge at the beach, once… Read More

New Year’s Resolutions & Goal Setting Success

New Year’s Resolutions & Goal Setting Success

August 24, 2013

As a student, I always saw September as an opportunity to rewrite my story. I could make a good impression on my new teachers. I would keep better track of my materials and assignments and maybe even be one of those kids that seemed to “have it all together.” These days, I still find myself resolving to do better every… Read More

PD or Infomercial?

July 9, 2013

After hearing/ reading the unrelenting enthusiasm of my colleagues who have attended ‘edcamps’ and ‘unconferences,’ I determined I needed to experience this phenomenon for myself. Could it really be that everyone who attended these events got exactly what they wanted and more? People who had experienced unconference-style events reported feeling professionally satisfied, respected and invigorated. My attitude is generally pretty… Read More

How do your students self-asses?

April 1, 2013

Lately, I’ve found myself having conversations with many educators who think self-assessment is a good idea… but just aren’t sure about putting it into practice. Consequences of thoughtful self-assessment: 1. Students reflect on their process, performance, actions. 2. Students become more aware of their learning and/ or actions- in the moment!! “Johnny, don’t you ever think before you speak?!?” (which… Read More

Timely reshare…A little reality check before diving into THIS new week. Most of us are carrying some extra stress, deadlines are approaching, wallets may be feeling tight... tensions may be high.🌲For so many of us, this stress comes from a place of preparation, joyful anticipation. 🌲Many of our students are also full of anticipation- but of something quite different. They may be anticipating the stress that fills their home when school’s out- and food is more scarce. Two weeks without breakfast and lunch that they usually have at school.🌲For many of our students, long days at home aren’t a welcome break from the grind of the school day. There may be dangerous adult behaviors, siblings to protect, and secrets to keep. 🌲This “break” we look so fondly toward, may be anything but that for some of our students. So please, when you encounter challenging student behavior this week, stop and consider the big emotions students might be managing on the inside. Let’s do our best this week, to be equipped with more compassion and empathy than we think we’ll need. 🌲Because the students who need love the most will ask for it in the most unloving ways. ...
