Thanks to everyone who participated in #engsschat tonight. Join us next week for #sschat - Zoom Edition, The Future of #sschat (registration required: bit.ly/sschat6May2024)

A6 #engsschat Making periodic 'Good Calls Home' (every student got several a year...yes, it took time but paid off in every imaginable way!). 💜

A5 #engsschat Big fan of an exit ticket, reflective journal type activity -again, big fan of thinking routines like 'I used to think... Now I think...'

A3 #engsschat A local history based #PBL uses skills built during the year, & keeps students engaged until the very end. @newamericanhist has been supporting the Lucyville project here in VA- so proud of this educator and his students! cardinalnews.org/2024/04/19/sto…

A2 #engsschat Often used Turn and Talk or BioPoems to get students to get to know one another and collaborate. Later began using AutoBio Mapping where students create and share hand-drawn maps of their neighborhoods and annotate/share connections to their lives spatially

A1 #engsschat I am a huge fan of the Project Zero thinking routines and strategies as well as the Right Question Institute #QFT . I often use this and See Think Wonder !

Also Happy 🌍 #EarthDay2024 to all our #sschat friends! GREAT day to get students outside to explore! I love to provide a field experience as part of a student learning experience. Including museums, historic sites, greenspaces, local history...so many ways to EXPLORE history!
