Went through assessment data today from 10 classes that completed their group projects. I found that a large majority of students said "YES," they would like to do another project that requires collaboration again. I would like to do a project where students collaborate in the hanging/displaying of the art as well as the creation.

I've recently started using Quizlet to try and boost engagement.  So far it's working great.  Students are on task, communicating with each other and they look forward to when we get to use it.

In the future I'd like to try and figure out how to keep all kids involved during classroom discussions.

Established roles that allow for full engagement in group discussions and activities more often.

In the future we would like to try to interweave the four assigned roles with the previously established peanut butter and jelly partners.

We are also looking at how to engaged the most difficult kiddos in large group settings.

I would like to continue to give my classes choices when it comes to games.  The number one thing would be to allow my classes to  get into small groups and create games and activities that we could implement in class. This would combine creation with choice which I would think would be a strong motivator for student participation.

We're implementing blended learning stations in each of our classes, just in different ways. We would like to try  having blended learning in all subject levels across the grade level.
We've realized that some of our best practices are not conducive to our current group of students.

Whispering and watching own voice tone helps with student behavior. Using a minute of silence when groups change.

Hope

Use of breathing to help students relax.

I have used different phonic screeners to measure the skills that students are needing. Then I teach those skills and monitor the students to see where the mastery is for them. It has been very eye opening to see what holes are in the knowledge of the students and how pinpointing them and helping the students become more confident, helps in the overall education and progress of the students. They raise their scores and their confidence.
