Assigning posts to  specific students. This will help when I want to differentiate work for each student. I can provide specific review of a topic of each student.
Posts to multiple classes.  This helps me, I teacher 3 of the same classes and up to now have been assigning the same assignments to each class one at a time

Archiving a class. This year I am not teaching one the classes this i have taught in the past being able to archive last years classes will help keep the folder more organized and i can look back later if need.

I would use the assign to individual students to differentiate assignments for my students.

I would use Save as Draft to load all assignments for the week, then each day just hit publish to make them go live.

I would use Move Post to the Top to help organize my stream

1. Saving post as a draft- This would be effective if I have not completed preparing for an assignment.
2. Archive an old class- This would help me stay organized year to year and make necessary changes based on the skill level of my students.
3. Assign post to specific students- This would be great to use to assign work to students who are struggling in certain concepts.

1. Archive a class. I would like to keep the dashboard organized since I will likely be modeling directions, how to log in and edit work. Having clutter removed will lessen confusion for my students when they watch.
2. Reuse an old post. I have already had to re do an entire assignment because I had forgotten to click, "Make a copy for each student." I would use this to correct that error. I would also like to use it for when I had lessons that worked the previous year.
3. Add a topic to post. I would like the organization of topics so that I can plan ahead and have the tasks easier to assign as I need them.

1.  Creating Topics- will help students and me stay organized .  It can help remind students what they are learning and what to be completing.
2.  Re-used Post- If I forget to make a copy of an assignment for kids, I can go back, make the copy and re assign the post.
3.  Assign posts to specific students-
Each student is different and assigning different posts to different children allows me to differentiate to their specific level. That means the whole class may be learning about one particular topic, but reading level and modifications can be made.

# data[].attributes.body
Organizing topics would help me to manage all of the various topics for the 3 4th grades that I currently teach.
Posting a question will help provide a simple activity to begin each of my lessons to make sure all of my students are ready and engaged in the activity.
Lastly the reusing a post will help to make corrections to my quick typing and be able to make sure all of my assignments are meeting my needs and my students needs.

1.) Archived Class: I would use this feature to assign a class for credit recovery.  I know we are in the process of creating credit recovery for students who failed class, this would be a good way for students to go back and make up assignments to earn credit.
2.) Posts for multiple classes: I would use this for classes that are the same.  It enables me to make assignments and posts in one google class and expand it to the same subject for other classes.
3.) Move Posts to Top: This feature could be used to reiterate assignments so I can determine what is most important for students to complete at a given time.

# data[].attributes.body
1.) Assigning posts to specific students would be helpful in differentiating topics. I could utilize this to separate topics/assignments by grade level or classes.
2.)Saving as a draft would allow me to create multiple activities at once and then clicking submit when I am ready to use them.
3.)I could use posing a question to gain feedback from students as to what they would like to see (i.e. specific college visit; speaker; presentation)

# data[].attributes.body
1. Move Post to the Top.  Moving the post to the top, will signify to the learners that this post is the most current.  Sometimes students may miss which assignment is the most current.  This will also help eliminate wasted time & energy.
2.  Post in multiple classes.  It's quick & easy, versus cutting & pasting.  It eliminates potential errors on the teacher's part, by keeping the assignment the same for all classes.
3. Posting a question. Is a great way to engage students as soon as they enter the class, "Do Now." It is another way of checking for understanding.

# data[].attributes.body
archived class - to put a class away that maybe you wouldn't need anymore.
Save as draft - bottom right click, assign or save as draft.
Move to top - most important assignments to the top

# data[].attributes.body
1) I like adding topics to existing assignments that way I can add more assignments to that topic.
2) I liked recovering archived classes, in case I accidently delete it or a student needs to make up work from that class.
3) Posing a question I thought was a neat way to gather information and student feedback.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Assign post to a specific student - This is a good tool to use for giving struggling students a modified assignment.
2. Save as a draft - I would utilize this when I am trying to plan ahead and not yet ready to assign an assignment to students.
3. Creating Topics - I like this so I can organize my assignments by units.

1.  Post to specific student - if I wanted to give feedback and keep things private, this would be a great way to communicate to a student without others seeing, to alleviate competitiveness.

2.  Save posts as drafts - I would use this if I was in the middle of working on a post and had to stop working, save, and return later.  Or I would use this if I wasn't ready to post this for students and wanted to wait for a future date.

3. Move post to top - I would use this if I had an important message that I wanted students to see before they could see anything else on the page.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Reuse a Post - I would use this to resubmit a post to my students. I would reuse a post if there was misunderstanding on the part of the students to help clarify or further question their thinking.
2. Posting Questions - This would allow me to further question students thinking about a topic. It would also serve for peer learning by being able to have students post further questions about a topic. I would do this to encourage peer learning and deeper thinking about the topic.
3. Assign Posts to Specific Students - This would allow you to differentiate instruction to meet the needs of all of the students.

# data[].attributes.body
Posting Questions - This is a great way to Access Prior Knowledge.  Before you start a new topic, you can ask students what they already know.  Often, we as teachers make assumptions based on our own experiences with a topic, and if we go into teaching a new concept without understanding what our student assumptions may or may not be, it can lead to failure.  Being able to see feed back immediately on the stream to a question and having the kids all look at the stream on the Smartboard at the same time is a great way to assess their current level of understanding and start a great conversation.
2.  Creating topics - this is a great tool to use to help students organize their learning and use the classroom as a study tool for upcoming assessments or as a review tool if they are struggling with a certain topic.  There are no more excuses such as "I didn't know where to look" or "You never gave it to me"  Awesome!
3. Re-use a post - I never knew how to create a copy for each student before. It's too bad you can choose that option when you create the post in the first place. Kind of crazy that you have to go back in, edit and then delete the original. I'll be trying this though.

1. The first video was archiving classes and restoring. I will use this in order to make sure I don't get confused on my new students and my old. It will keep me organized.
2. The second video that I chose to watch was on moving a post to the top. This is important to know how to do because at times if I post and students comment or I want to reopen a discussion instead of re-writing the post I can just re-post it.
3. The last is creating topics. This will also allow me to keep my topics and information organized so that I can go back and look for certain topics or information

# data[].attributes.body
1. I would use assign posts to specific students to send a message to students who needed to fix the same error on their assignment or for students that I am modifying the assignment for and have specific directions for them concerning which numbers to complete or skip.

2. I would use posting a question as a way to give the students a warm up question at the beginning of the class or a ticket out the door at the end of class.
3. I would use using posts in multiple classes to assign the same assignment to all of the classes that I am teaching.

# data[].attributes.body
how you would use it and why for each of the topics.
1- i would post in multiple classes if i have a class that was differentiated and working on different things at different times.
2- i would post a question for an exit ticket for the class. Some thing quick that they can answer to show that they understood the days lesson.
3- moving a question to the top of the stream could be useful when reviewing a topic or reteaching due to some students not understanding something.

Archived Class- great tool to save all of the development work you have put into a class. You can use this in the future with ease instead of searching through file cabinets or folders to find the documents you are looking for .

Assigning posts to different students is a great way to differentiate your teaching and meet the needs of all students.

Saving an assignment
Great way to have a complete unit set up and ready to go without having to make stacks of copies OR trying to play the guessing game on how far you will get in a lesson each day and deciding how much material you need to print out This eliminates all the guess work. It will all be waiting to assign.

Archiving a class: An excellent tool for organizing your google page as well as a way to reuse effective tools from previous years. These pages can be adjusted for the needs of the new class or the students, but it's nice to see that there is a way to organize good stuff and without the clutter.

Assigning posts to specific students: This is a great way to organize grouped work for specific students in the class. This way it can all be on one page for the teacher to view, while students can concentrate on their own work without the distraction of others.

Saving posts as drafts and assigning drafts: This is a great way to get work done prior to the lesson and have it adjusted before the actual posting. This way, it does not need to be created right before posting, but allows time and flexibility for the creator to adjust as the class needs.

1. Reusing a post - I would use this when I forget to give each student their own copy of an assignment. In the past I deleted the entire assignment first and recreated it from scratch; this will save time.
2. Assigning a topic - At this point in the year, we have a lot of posts in the stream and sorting by topic would make it easier for students to find specific posts and assignments.
3. Saving a post as a draft - I like the flexibility of working on it little by little and/or waiting to post it until we need it so that it doesn't clog up my class feed unnecessarily.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Assign posts to specific students: I would use this for three different grade levels and abilities that are currently in my class.
2. Creating topics: I would use this to help with organization for different grade levels and chapters.
3. Post a question: I would use this to review material, bell work, or as an exit ticket. Love that I would not have to make paper copies!

# data[].attributes.body
1. Assign post to specific students: Is a great way to differentiate an assignment for students. It is also helps with the students not being aware that other students need help with an assignment or are working below grade level.

2. Creating Topics: Is a great way to organize assignments by topic or content area.

3. Posting a question can be used as writing prompt, journal entry, or an exit ticket.  It can be used as a quick way to check for understanding as well.
