https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScuOXGOdYp749xnE1Y...See MoreHello fellow teachers! I am doing a research project on how often educators practice self-care! I would love it if some of you could fill out this Google form survey answering only 5 questions! All answers will be anonymous! :-)
I'm about to begin my first year of teaching this September, and I was wondering what would be a good seating arrangement for my classroom. I will be teaching 6th grade, and I would like to arrange the seats in my room in such a way that students can transition easily between independent work and group work.
I am collecting data for my university dissertation and really need as many teachers as possible to fill in a survey! The survey takes less than 10-minutes and is an anonymous online questionnaire. Please follow this link if you would be willing to participate: https://york.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_a2yrXqsNWfqFDx4
With a well-structured plot line, cleverly crafted twists, a sometimes unreliable narrator, symbolism, and foreshadowing, it would make a great novel study book for any class, but its additional attention to the details of reading maps and navigating through difficult terrain make it an absolute must read for STEM students.
Please check out the sample below, and feel free to pass on the link to any educator in your school who you feel would be interested. Please let me know if you need me to send you a full copy to review!
I am looking for simple and effective assessments for reading and writing to assess students who most likely range from grades 4-9 in terms of ability. Any guidance would be appreciated. Thank you!
A few things that are throwing me off. I thought I knew how to use Zoom and Google Classroom well enough, but, that is evidently not the case. After the first week, half the students are yet to show, so, I don't want to start activities for grades. The activities that I have done are continually being interupted by students who are coming in late, or coming back in because their connection dropped. I remind to try to get in on time, then restart. I already had a parent get mad and yell "It aint her fault", so I'm not going to get screamed at parents, as most of them are sitting right next to their kid.
This is compounded by things that should have been sent to each student in Google Classroom as their own copy is an editable copy that everybody is working on, while in the other class each student had their own copy. The assignment was created at same time for each class, so I can't for the life of me understand how the settings were different.
I'm thinking of pre-recording the presentation of material portion, then going over questions and answers together. We only have 40 minutes for each class. I am thinking of doing things that I got a few years ago from TPT, History with Mr. E. I need to quickly reset, and I think that for the virtual format, doing something that is worksheet based is going to work the best, even if that is not how I would normally run my class.
So, I am wondering if anyone has suggestions on how they make their class run in a virtual format.
