First Poll in anticipation of our #MilfordPLC #EdTech chat next week: You’re giving a quick formative assessment. What’s your go-to?

Day 2 of our polls leading up to next week’s #MilfordPLC #EdTech chat! What’s your “10 minutes left in class, let’s play a review game” go-to?

Poll number 3! How often are you using tech to support your teaching? #MilfordPLC #EdTech (and if you’ve been teaching awhile, interesting to reflect on what your use looks like today vs. “back then”!)

The irony of tech issues during an #EdTech chat…which means we will use it as inspiration! What’s the most frustrating part of tech in the classroom? #MilfordPLC

Happy Friday! Don’t forget to join us starting Monday for our last #MilfordPLC chat of the year!

We need to shift the conversation from differentiation to personalization. Differentiation often involves lower expectations and modifications. Personalization provides access to success through tailored instruction and ownership.

It’s time! Our final 21-22 #MilfordPLC slow chat is live! Q1 is below—don’t forget “A1” and “#MilfordPLC” in your response!

A1: I currently teach 5th ELA B.E.S. Elementary. I LOVE Canva! I use it to create so many things for my classroom…from name tags to presentations. This year my students used Canva for a research project and I was blown away at their work! #MilfordPLC

A1: Sarah Otts 🙋‍♀️ Grade 2 ✌️ MLB ⭐️ Kahoot is still a favorite over here- using it today to review our measurement skills 📏 #MilfordPLC

It’s “tech free Tuesday” for Question 2! What’s your favorite offline activity? #MilfordPLC

A2: Movement breaks outside and nature walks. There’s always a content connection or a relationship piece being added when outdoors 🌿 #MilfordPLC

I suppose anytime the internet isn’t working (🤦🏼‍♀️) is a tech fail, but there are other times when *nothing* goes as planned! Share with us a fail and what you learned in Q3 today! #MilfordPLC

A2: A favorite of my students is Flashlight Friday! Ss bring blankets, stuffed animals, and flashlights. We turn off the lights and read by the (YouTube) fire with our flashlights. #MilfordPLC

Sarah Otts MilfordPLC Nature Walks!! The Ss love exploring nature.

A3: I’m embarrassed to admit that more than once I have forgotten to add “name” in Google Form for a class assignment. That was fun to tell the students that they had to complete the assignment again. #MilfordPLC

Question 4 is all about student choice! What do your students beg to use? #MilfordPLC

A4: This year many of my students choose Canva or #GoogleSlides to showcase learning. Anything that allows their creativity to shine through.

A4: We love a good Kahoot!, and repeating said kahoot multiple times 😜 We also enjoy Flocabulary! Looking forward to our Week in Rap tomorrow! #MilfordPLC

Posting our last question early because Fri-yay! We have amazing #EdTech coaches in our schools (and thank you to them for helping with this chat! Katie Coomes Cara Grace Lindsey Humphreys) so for Q5, how can they help YOU? #MilfordPLC
