Reading Each Other’s Writing

Reading Each Other’s Writing

March 18, 2020

Are you hoping for your students to read and enjoy each other’s writing? I was too! And I found it so challenging for so long. This strategy, I call the Writing Shuffle, has made all the difference. Not only do students get excited to read each other’s work- but they are thoughtful about feedback, and can engage in the entire… Read More

💡How about THIS as a way to check your work?

‼️Kids no longer do 3 problems wrong in a row in my class. They no longer get GOOD at doing it wrong. You KNOW what I’m talking about, right?!? 😉

💻Instead they check each problem as they go against a video solution. They often pick up some tips and tricks, too! 😉

🎢Also great for differentiating! I have 3 different skills going in one class- no one has a clue! They are so busy trying to make their models look better than mine!! 🖍

👀Check out all the Guide Me Math Packs in my Write Solutions TPT Store.

And in 7 days my nana turns 95, and today is Betty And in 7 days my nana turns 95, and today is Betty White’s 99th. 

Perspective. 

It’s important that we remember (and teach our students) how close our present is to the past. This history is quite recent. 

Thank you @theconsciouskid for shifting my perspective.

I made “veggie pie like Nana” for my kids yest I made “veggie pie like Nana” for my kids yesterday. After work. I thought it might be one of those times where the thing I make isn’t done in time for dinner. (🤷🏼‍♀️ It happens!) 

But, it wasn’t. And, my kids are SO KIND when I try to make something new. 

A few weeks ago I tried to make spinach pies (calzones). I usually “make” those by running into the bakery and leaving with a box. 

What I made looked NOTHING like what comes out of that box. My kids didn’t even flinch. My oldest said, “Mom, I can’t believe you MADE this!!” And together with his brother, gobbled it up.

Last night with the half burnt pie? Same thing. Raced to their chairs. “Oohs!” And, “ahhhs!!” 

“It’s tastes JUST like Nana’s!” (Which it did NOT😂)

Sometimes dinner time drives me to open a bottle of wine, or chase the kids around with their plates, or threaten crazy things.

But they really are the sweetest, kindest my loving little maniacs ever. Gush over.

📈Watching the numbers RISE in my very small state.

💉Watching the medical professionals I love get vaccinated and get top of the line PPE to protect them from patients who had their temps checked before entering their offices.

😷I’ll keep wearing a mask for sure when we go back next week! My masks are floral or striped. They are from @oldnavy . I wonder if that what my friends who work at nursing homes and dental offices are wearing🤷🏼‍♀️

🎙I’d love to share my concerns with Commissioner Infante Green or Governor Raimondo. I just don’t think they’d understand, since they only meet via videoconference.

🤷🏼‍♀️Have some kids in the same class 🤷🏼‍♀️Have some kids in the same class that need something a little different from each other? 

💃🏼Of course you do!!! And differentiating can be tricky. Sometimes it means creating 3 different assignments. 😩

🌟Not this time! This time, I’ve done the differentiating for you. Here are three levels of Valentine Themed 😍❤️Operations with Fractions story problems. All in one CHOICE BOARD. Print (or upload) and go. No-prep. Answer key makes for a great self-checking station😉

This right here is a 30 minute snack. I can make This right here is a 30 minute snack. 

I can make tomorrow’s lunches or attend a 30 minute #googlemeet  without interruption 🤞🏼 if I make them THIS snack. 

This is not a “share plate” because they will fight and end my peace. So my 3 & 5yos each get their own. Mr. 3 will trade away pepper sticks for raisins if his brother is willing, but otherwise they are happy!

Bosc Pear, crunchy pepper sticks, cucumber, toasted pita wraps, raisins and @thevegan8 mozzerella. 

What snack buys you the most quiet time??

You’re not a SUPERHERO!! Sometimes it’s confu You’re not a SUPERHERO!!

Sometimes it’s confusing because we do superhero things like teach without the necessary materials, or curriculum or pencils 😳

But we are actually regular people. When we aren’t teaching we use the bathroom like regular people do- albeit faster and with more excitement- but still😉

Cut yourself, and your colleague across the screen (or hallway) some slack! It was NICE not having to plan or teach or toggle 15 tabs last week!

What was your favorite part??
