There were a lot of things that went well this school year.  I appreciate the support from Jen and her insight into HLHS students and their needs.  I enjoyed the conversations with students around ALP goals and making these relevant for them.  Because of these conversations, two students graduate that may have not otherwise.

I am grateful for my relationships and my health. I am also grateful for the staff and students at HLHS. I look forward to going to work everyday and hope to see them in person next year.

Meeting with Rizzo who is knowledgeable and helpful throughout the whole process. An idea is to maybe have a half day training to learn more about giftedness and share ideas.

I have begun to feel comfortable with Empower and learning the ins and outs. I have used Base education and rethink Ed which have been great to support students with SEL during this time.

I am grateful for our amazing teachers and leadership at the Met.

This was a whirlwind of a school year!  First, my husband and I took custody of our four-year-old granddaughter right before school started. Next, I ended up "starting" school three times due to a loss of a teacher and didn't finish the "first six weeks" of school until November 1.  Add to that the fact that it was in THE ONE grade that I hadn't ever taught in my 22 years of teaching.  Then, when my class and I were in a groove, we switched to remote learning.  During all of that, I started this new position as PEDAL advocate.  No matter what, I am hoping that next year is smoother. :)

I am most grateful for the health of my family and friends. I am grateful that I work an an awesome school with amazing, dedicated teachers, hard-working families, sweet students, and the most caring and supportive administrators!

These ideas may not be innovative, but I have kept students engaged by having Spirit Week, Show and Tell, Home Tours, Project Based Learning, and Fun Zoom backgrounds.

I am grateful for the opportunity to get to know my parents better during this time.  I communicated with all of them almost daily.  I believe it brought everyone closer together to share in this unique time in history

I am grateful that I was still able to have a connection with my seniors during their last few weeks of high school.

We had a huge jump in documentation of ALPs by our AE teachers. Big win!
Michelle is a dynamo and even continued our monthly student meetings via Zoom. Our next goal is tackling ID / referrals in a more efficient and effective manner.

At the end of April, I usually have to choose and get to know my WEB leaders for next year. This process was far different form that past years. I had an interest survey go out to students and once I chose leaders, I made a flip grid to get to know them and why they wanted to be in WEB. I will utilize flip grid all the time next year, regardless of where I am teaching from.

I am super grateful to be part of a district who truly cares about their kids and community. I am SO proud of us for our meal numbers published in the chalk beat article sent out. Like WHAT?! 125%!!!! Never been more proud.

Being that this was my first year as the PEDAL advocate, I felt I rocked it with identifying new students. I LOVE looking at data, so that was fun. However,  I felt that I didn't have the structure/built in time or knowledge to meet with the identified kiddos to make their goals super personal and purposeful. With that said, my idea for next year is to request all the middle shcool the GT kids be put into my L9 Lit class so I can meet with them regularly!

I am grateful to have a safe home with some outdoor space. I am grateful for extra time with my husband and pets.

I have enjoyed using Nearpod with students. It allows me to create content which my students can see, and then they can create content which only I can see, and this happens in real time.

For the first time in my career students have actually started responding and regularly checking their emails! I started using zoom, taught students how to screen share, encouraged collaboration between students with google hangouts, and taught students communication tips during virtual learning. Zoom is a different form of communication, so this has been a great time to teach students appropriate conduct on zoom!

# data[].attributes.body
This was my first year as a PEDAL advocate and I loved seeing the process. Jen's energy is so amazing and contagious! I really enjoyed getting to know the students at the beginning of the year and the collaboration with parents. Next year, I want to send out google forms for students' teachers bimonthly as a form of checking in rather than sending emails.

I am grateful to work for an innovative district with supportive colleagues.

I started using Flipgrid for my student check-in's. I have learned a lot about Empower and am integrating Flipgrid, Zoom, and Kahoot, with my traditional social emotional curriculums.

As a first year PEDAL Advocate, I had a lot to learn. Jenn's individual support was momentous! For next year, I have a clear picture of what the process looks like from start to finish. My admin and I talked about incorporating PEDAL referrals into our regular data meetings!

I am grateful for this time with daughters. I am grateful for my loved ones being healthy.

Remote learning is still a work in progress for me! I'm learning new ways to engage with students and families from my colleagues everyday. I've enjoyed being apart of daily classroom meetings on zoom. On zoom I can support the many diverse  learners with classroom assignments.

I am grateful for my amazing colleagues and teammates at WAIS!

Having meetings/ check-in with PEDAL students weekly was a great way to keep track of their learning and provide individual supports.
For next school year, I want to see how I can make goal setting more meaningful and engaging for my PEDAL students.

I have used Flip Grid and Zoom to interact with my students. I have enjoyed my classes using Zoom because I can share my screen to help my students. I have even been able to progress monitor my students using breakout rooms, which has been amazing.

I am grateful for being able to spend time with my family.

The PEDAL Advocates are the best and make a big difference in our PEDAL programming and continuous improvement. THANK YOU!

One-on-one meetings with PEDAL Advocates have been helpful to increase identification.

Continue parent and student forums beyond social isolation.

Ideas for next year is to keep my focus on  PEDAL programming and instruction verse identification.

I am trying to include engaging opening and closing activities during Zoom meeting to build community and engagement. I have used Zoom Sketch, Zoom breakout rooms, Closing Prompts,  Zoom Bingo, and Padlet as a form of collaboration.
