Students in Ms. Egan’s class at Evans Elementary working on workstations that focus on fraction concepts. Many of them could demonstrate multiplying fractions conceptually. @EvansEaglesSoar Jessica Turner WCSDEmpowers

A2: My superpower would be Super Intelligence so I could plan lessons very fast! #EdTechGuys

A1: I’d say Jumanji. I feel like I’m moving between worlds when I enter different rooms. It really is fascinating and awesome. #EdTechGuys

A3: I create empathy by modeling it myself. Acting as a caring educator shows others that people do care. #EdTechguys

A4: Humor helps keep students engaged in the lesson. I often find even when working with teachers humor helps people smile and relax. If you can’t laugh at yourself, you are doomed lol. #EdTechguys

Having fun learning math with SPLATS and Ozmos in Ms.Egan’s class! Calculating the time it would take to get to Bounce using distance, rate and time. 5th graders used Osmo pizza shopping calculate cost. Daniel Roberto @EvansEaglesSoar Jessica Turner WCSDEmpowers

A5: key attributes include having a sense of humor, being knowledgeable in your field, and being flexible. So hard to be successful without these traits. #EdTechguys

A6: I’m excited to see this generation innovate and create. They are so advanced with technology that they are going to do amazing things one day. #EdTechguys

A7: project based learning is awesome but requires that students have the skills to complete it independently. Some require scaffolding and supports that may need to be directly taught at first. #EdTechguys

A8: A desk tablet where each student’s desks is a tablet that shares what they are looking at with the teacher. They would have a stylus that they could use for solving problems. #EdTechguys

A9: A class where students practice basic life skills. How to do your taxes, balancing a checkbook, savings, 401k’s etc. Some high schools have these classes but I never had the experience. #EdTechguys

A10: I’d like my students to say they had so much fun in math and learned a lot. Leaving them with fond memories and maybe inspire them to be something later in life. #EdTechguys

A11: I see Steam activities during math workshop because you can include them in stations. #EdTechguys

A12: I would enjoy the ride. You don’t get to be a nickel everyday😇 #Edtechguys

Cheryl Callaghan’s First Graders measuring using cubic centimeter blocks! WCSDEmpowers Brinckerhoff School Jessica Turner

A1: I decided to become a teacher so I could help others. I wanted to work with children and inspire them to become the best version of themselves. #EDTECHGUYS

For kids who have family members to play with, Greg Jr's card & board games are great. When they don't, our online digital games can be helpful. I yearn for a simpler time in life. When we were young, my mom played all kinds of card games & board games with me & my 2 sisters.
