As much as I love the virtual calming room, one of the SEL challenges I gave in the spring was for students to create their own calming corners in their homes.  Laura Blum had students take pictures too!  I love the virtual option, but also like old school off screen options too.  I think encouraging movement and lots of breaks is especially important as we take on so much screen time.  For kids and adults!!!

I believe that giving a student time to do something on their own is key. When they don't understand allowing them to explain to me what they got from it and filling in the gaps. Embedding technology into their assignments.
Allowing them to show the class what they have learned or how to use the new technology. They become the teacher .

I know that I get into the mindset of jumping right in to a lesson because there is so much content to get through. I will take the time to check in and get to know my students. I want them to feel comfortable and excited to be in class. I will be flexible because not all are going to be in a place to learn and some days it may take more time to check in and be sure we are all ready to learn.

Choice boards are a great way to gain students' interest and let them feel "in-charge" of their learning. Choice boards don't have to just be content related, but you can also create choice boards for calming strategies, outside activities, and things to do with their families.

To keep student interest discussion is so important. If you want to lose your students, talk at them the entire time. Having them talk about how a character in a book is similar to them gives them a connection to what they are learning. Giving a choice in their learning is another way students stay engaged. Knowing they may be able to select a learning game of their choice after they have done the required work will help with motivation.

I think that developing relationships and creating a classroom community is truly what keeps interest going. When students are emotionally invested they keep coming back, they not only log on they want to be there. If I can get them to want to connect each day then I know I can keep their attention once they are there.
