It's one thing to learn about Digital Citizenship, but it's another thing to PRACTICE it! Check out the link below to some examples of how we practice in class...with the help of Seesaw.

With the help of our favorite app, Seesaw, we practice being a good digital citizens once a month. After having a quick mini-lesson on what a good comment (written or audio) looks like, we practice. Student's start by leaving comments or setting goals on their own posted work.

Using google forms, I collect data on paper/pencil timed quick checks.  I use this data, mixed with Xtra-Math and Reflex data, to analyze and create skill groups to meet with during basic facts time.  It's also great info to have for RTI meetings.

Each week we add new "Snap Words" to our word wall. We start out our learning by making "rainbow" words to practice reading and spelling the word.  Then each student records their explanation of the word and how to spell it.  I am working on creating a book with these short video clips to use as an intervention for students struggling with reading and writing our snap words.

It is extremely important that children have the change to practice basic facts with manipulatives and through rote/memorization. We use the free site Xtra math to help with the rote/memorization part. Click on the link to watch a video of students using Xtra math and another strategy called "Touch Math". This strategy allows students to count on by using touch points on each number.
