Let's focus more on SAMR and integration, Blog Followers. (Techie Tuesday 1/28/2020)

Hi, Blog Followers!
Here is this week's Techie Tuesday. You can see all of my weekly slides and access all of the links by clicking on the slide below and then using the arrows to scroll through the other slides in the deck. Do you have an assignment that you want me to dig into for you? Please send it my way! Additionally, I've been taking existing worksheets, like the video/audio reflection sheet in this week's slide, and creating digital versions that are easy to share with your students. Although on the substitution end of the SAMR pool, it's a great way to get your feet wet. Have something you do on paper that you want to do digitally? Send it to me and I'll generate it for you!

What prep block do you have this trimester/quarter?
Block 1  |  Block 2  |  Block 3  |  Block 4  |  Block 5  |  Block 6  |  Block 7  |  Block 8  |  n/a



I aim to be as easily accessible as possible so I can help as many folks as I can. With that in mind, you can make an appointment with me right on my website, which is also easy to remember because it's just SimmonsClassroom.com. If you see a slot open, you can grab it! I've gone back and forth between the MS and HS almost 10 times in a day before. I love to get my steps in! You can book me for anywhere from 15 minutes to the entire day as long as I have an opening in my calendar. I have also added a calendar on my appointment page so you know what building I'm going to be hanging my hat in just in case you want to pop by and say hi. Check it out!

Let me know if I can do anything at all to help, Blog Followers.

Sincerely, 
Susie

Empowering Students with Choice Boards

Image
An example of a student choice menu that has students chose one item from each "course". I've been working with a teacher lately who has struggled with her students completing a summative paper in her class. This trimester, we're working together to find a way to increase buy in and hopefully have a higher percentage of students complete the project. While investigating options for her, the first thing that came to mind was using a choice board or learning menu to enable her students to select the method that would work best for them rather than prescribing a multimedia project. There are a wide range of ways that you can put choice boards in to action. Tic-Tac-Toe, Menus, Choice Board... there are lots of different words to use to search for them. But the premise for all of them is the same. Give your students a selection of options to chose from and let them go with it. Beyond hopefully boosting engagement, the teacher gets the added benefit of not have a ga...
