Tried organizing my thinking on the intersection of skills & content in the world of remote learning - still toiling with feedback vs (formal) assessment #vted #cvsdvt

Fun, goofy team activity @SCSLearns - the "Song of COVID-19" bracket. March Madness-style tournament to choose the song of the moment (songs chosen by students) #vted #cvsdvt

First round results of the Song of COVID-19 bracket are in! Closest contest: Bruno Mars beats surfaces by just one vote! Biggest upset: "In My Room" by the Beach Boys takes down "Work from Home" by Fifth Harmony. Wow. On to the Elite 8 @SCSLearns #vted #cvsdvt

The @SCSLearns Song of COVID-19 Final Four are locked in. This year's underdog "In My Room" by the Beach Boys lost by ONE VOTE to Alan Walker's "Alone". Tragic for some, proper for others... #vted #cvsdvt

Students of color prompted, planned, and led the #BlackLivesMatter rally and flag raising ceremony @SCSLearns as part of a reinvigorated push across #cvsdvt for antiracism

Really proud to see some former @SCSLearns students leading PD for #cvsdvt #vted

WOOHOO! CVU Learns is on the ESPN Top 5 Unified Champion Schools for 2020 - the "Inclusion Revolution" #cvsdvt #vted espn.com/specialolympic…

It felt really good to resurface and write this reflective blog post on teaching through a pandemic: "Tricking Myself into Falling in Love with Remote Learning" #vted #cvsdvt #remotelearning mrnelsonteaches.blogspot.com/2020/10/tricki…

Feeling some positive vibes in this launch of the #vtcps Cultivating Pathways to Sustainability retreat #vted #cvsdvt

A conversation with a student's family sparked the thinking behind this short blog post about assessments: When Student Work is "Good Enough" mrnelsonteaches.blogspot.com/2020/10/when-s… #vted #cvsdvt #sblchat CVU Learns UVM Tarrant Institute for Innovative Education

Dug up this blog post today, tuned up the visuals, and am re-posting. The reflections still hold true; missteps I've taken in figuring out the difference between proficiency-based grading and authentic proficiency-based learning #pblchat #vted mrnelsonteaches.blogspot.com/2018/02/tangib…

Thank you to the Cultivating Pathways crew for starting our January Virtual Retreat with a Land Acknowledgement UP for Learning ShelburneFarms #vted #vtcps Lindsey Slan Halman #nativelivesmatter Lakota People's Law Project

Blog post covering the steps I've been using for "Teaching Social Identity" - everything from mosaics to Audre Lorde. Thanks @JPhillipsVT for the constructive feedback along the way! #vted #cvsdvt mrnelsonteaches.blogspot.com/2021/02/teachi…

Inspiring moment in this morning's Cultivating Pathways retreat: Krishna, a 12th grader from Kopila Valley School in Nepal, her favorite learning moments as: "the student is the boss, and the teachers are the helpers" #personalizedlearning #vted #vtcps UP for Learning

Loved putting this video together for the 2021 Global Citizenship Conference, which is an "Introduction to the U.N. SDG's" - including the What, How, and Why we use them in schools #vted #cvsdvt #goglobalvt wevideo.com/view/2118226083

Latest reflective blog post - written as the essay for my SMC Purple Knights graduate school application: "The Foul Tip: An Instance of Well-Intentioned, but Inequitable, Teaching" #vted #cvsdvt mrnelsonteaches.blogspot.com/2021/05/the-fo…

This feels good: "Year-End Bingo Boards" to provide students the opportunity to improve on transferable skills by revisiting prior work or starting something new (with choice involved) #vted #personalizedlearning #pblchat
