I do groupings of four students during grammar lessons so, they can help each other out after I present the lesson. I use this collaboration strategy to allow students to bounce grammar rules amongst themselves while working on given task. Students are able to use notes and courseware material to complete in-class assignment as a group. To me, it is a very useful technique because students discuss it within their groups before they finalize their answers. During groups collaboration, I observe, listen, and answer any questions students may have about grammar or related material.

DBQs are a good way to promote literacy as well as engage with content

A strategy that I've started using this year is asking for feedback from  students. I ask all kind of things AND actually use their feedback. For example, I'll ask if they liked my lesson, what can I do to make it better, what do you want to read about, if they are ready to take the quiz, etc...Then I plan based on their responses. I've also started using stations (which is sometimes hard in ELA) but I noticed that the work completion rate is actually higher. -E. Dyches

A strategy I use in art class is doing the assignment with my students.  If they see me working sometimes that motivates them to get started and it gives them an idea on how to start.  For instance I do the weekly visual journal entry that I assign my students so that they can see my work and that I'm not just preaching to the choir.

I use Quizizz, Delta Math, Kahoot (USA Test Prep & Khan Ace) as digital supplements for my classes. Great progress trackers!  Having the DESMOS calculator comes in very handy, but the Calc84 app is the closest thing to the TI-84 graphing calculator I've found, that students can download to their phone.  I also use Zip Grader for quick assessments.  I get ideas/info from Quizlet also!

The instructional strategy that best fits for my class is Hands on Visualization. My students have to demonstrate the skills that they learned by practicing them such as how to properly measure ingredients, different cutting techniques, and identifying heat transfer methods just to name a few. Students thoroughly enough the dishes that they created as part of learning a technique. This strategy is perfect as I as am to guide the students and correct them as they are learning a technique. I often given hands on or video demonstration assessments because some techniques need visualization.       Tiffany Brooks

Use Task Cards
Like learning stations, using task cards can help teachers give students a range of content. Answering task cards can also be a small-group activity, which adds variety to classes that normally focus on individual or large-group learning.  It also helps teachers individualize instruction by monitoring the pairs, addressing knowledge gaps when needed. I think this will be effective for F2F students.

A resource I am getting ready to use for an upcoming unit is NOVA Labs, part of the NOVA collection on PBS Learning Media. This is a great tool for science teachers in particular covering a few different content areas. Virtual labs, video clips (from NOVA), games, student resources and assignments are all available which can be adapted and adjusted for differentiated instruction. And, each of the labs include a portion where students can learn about the scientists and technicians working in the field to adapt it to authentic real life experiences.

NOVA Labs: https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/labs/

The PBS Learning Media collection as a whole has resources for almost any subject and learning level.

I really love using Nearpod but the storage on there is limited. Now I have discovered Quizizz Lessons. This is similar to the concept or Nearpod because you can add slides and then interactive questions within the presentation. It works really well for Virtual Class as it helps to keep the students engaged in the lesson because there are interactive components spread throughout the lesson. You can add videos and any other information that you like. This is a great option. Also you can either do teacher - led or student self-paced and assign it as homework.

Collaborated with my department to implement two-way communication that encouraged my students to take parts in class discussions and class hands on activities to improve their overall reading comprehension.

I am a big fan of Quizizz!!!!!!!!!!   Quizizz is a creativity software company used in class, group works, pre-test review, exams, unit test, and impromptu tests. It allows students and teachers to be online at the same time.   Stewart

Ironically, one I just used today was Padlet. I used it to see how students were coming along with preparing for a mock trial for Frankenstein. I am kind of bummed the service only lets you create three per month for free, and I used up two of them trying to figure it out the first go-around. I also always use Kahoot! I think it can get overused, but it's nice to change it up and I give incentive points on tests and grades for top three winners.

I use Quizlet to reinforce learning vocabulary words. We also do a graphic organizer such as the Frayer model.

I agree with Mrs. Triplett and Ms.Kea.  Stewart

I totally agree with Ms. Kea!!! Guided notes have been a true success for my first year level students (mainly 9th and 10th graders). For my upper level students, they strive for competition so Kahoot is a great resource. However, the best resource that I am honored to have is my Greenhouse. It is truly amazing what my students will do in the greenhouse that they struggle with in the classroom. Hands on instruction is the BEST! I love being an agricultural teacher!

Creating flash cards and Frayer models for key vocabulary and properties has helped my students to recall important words and definitions.   There are great websites on line that allow students to create flash cards and share with teachers for grading; such as https://www.brainscape.com/ .

I use both Delta Math and USATestPrep. You can then look at the results and design remediation lessons to help fill in the problem areas for individual students. It is all online and auto graded. Patton

Guided notes has been a strategy heavily implemented in my class. 9th graders struggle with keeping organized notes so this has been a great help to the students. It also allows for differentiation when teaching classes that have varying levels.   - Kea

I use Desmos Calculator activities for my Geometry students and https://www.symbolab.com/solver/matrix-calculator for my PreCalculus students for matrices.  I have found both very useful as resources and instructional tools for activities and practice.  Triplett :)

For writing assignments, I want the students to have a visual of what I expect to see in their writing.  I use graphic organizers with detailed instructions in each section of the organizer (it can also serve as a checklist/rubric). I also add sentence stems to get students started on their responses. After they complete the graphic organizer, I tell them to write everything cohesively. This ensures that they are following directions, correctly answering the prompt, citing evidence, and explaining the evidence.

I have enjoyed using Canvas Studio to do screen captures and add quiz questions to videos. I have used this with my 9th Graders as we have been reading Romeo and Juliet. I recorded a reading of the play and posted teaching commentary and questions in the video. --Anthony Dyches

(Christopher Fitzgerald) For topics that have multiple parts, I find that jigsaw methods work awesomely. I have used it for the biogeochemical cycles, renewable energies, and will certainly use it more in the future! Students have to rely on each other, work quickly, and teach each other the information.

Glover=Purpose games to help students learn diagrams and pictures.  It gives them a time and score.  They can redo them to increase their results.

For vocabulary I use the hands on learning activities that incorporates independent study and self-assessment. For example: They would create memory cards. One card will have the vocabulary word. The other card will have the definition. Then they will mix the cards up and match the vocabulary terms with their definitions, then check their matches against the vocabulary sheet.

Escape Rooms are a great review resource for students. I have purchased at least 2 escape rooms from teacherspayteachers.com. It requires the students to not only answer content questions, but also requires them to think outside the box use their answers to determine a code for that level. It is also a great way to help them learn to problem solve.

Delta  Math is an online resource which allows students to practice problems covering topics from middle school, Algebra 1, Geometry, Algebra 2, Pre-Cal, Calculus and computer science. Delta Math is provided by RCSS for this year. I have found it useful as I can create practice for the students. No papers to collect, can select how many problems for each concept, can use phone or laptop, and can also be used for tests.  I do plan to use Delta Math for Final Exam Review.  Groups can be created so that practice can be tailored for student level (aka differientation). Assignments can be set up so that it opens when the class begins and closes at class end. Videos are also available for students to review concepts.           WhoDat Bezue!

I really enjoy using Common Lit. Common Lit features most of our reading selections. It offers a guiding question part which allows students the opportunity for understanding basic plot events. The Assessment portion does an excellent job with using extensive questioning, multiple choice and short answer, and relates each question to a standard. There is also a discussion section which is great for furthering any understanding of concepts in the piece we are reading. I love the assessment portion because in many instances, one question builds upon another. All of these features are great preparation for the EOC and other standardized tests. The selections are based on grade level, but one can use the selections in any grade level. It also allows one to choose students who may need to do an additional selection for further help with a certain standard or key concept. Posted by Robert Jackson, ELA

Zipgrade is a great resource for creating quick assessments to gauge what students have learned.  Its as simple and reliable as the old scantrons we all used to use for grading. It also allows for uploading a pdf file separately from the answer key.  You could use zipgrade online with any of your old test. Just enter in the answer key and upload a picture as pdf and its ready to go.  Cons. Although it does a trial period it cost $6.95 a year for the full version.    C. Oglesby

The Gizmo app that the county has on our Launchpad is a FANTASTIC resource for virtual labs in pretty much every science subject. There are accompanying student guide sheets as well as teacher guides. This has been a wonderful addition to our toolbox! -- S. Patton
