Innovation can look like individualization. I offer students choices through choice boards, tic-tac-toe assignments, and review activities. They have many opportunities to choose, to express themselves, and to create something NEW.

In my classroom innovation looks like students collaborating on a Google Doc or Slide in real time.

Learning about music in silent generation, the baby boomers, generation x, y and z. The students are doing Google slides on each generation.

I use innovation in my classroom by allowing students to use their devices to participate in engaging activities about social studies like padlet, flip grid, and webquests.

Integrating new strategies and allowing students to choose activities to make learning meaningful.

Critical thinking activities where students figure out the answer for themselves. (breakout boxes)

An innovative practice I'm doing in my room is crowdsourcing information rather than me always lecturing. This makes it better because the students are accountable for finding the information and sharing it with their classmates.

Innovation is providing the students with the ability to create products within the classroom and in MakerSpace that brings the learning to "life".

In my classroom I have what is called "Writer's Choice" circle. After reading a particular text or story, students assemble in their writers' circle to create a short story (of their choice) using the literary elements from previous lessons.

Innovation is working together cooperatively to gain more understanding of the current concepts. This could be achieved through hands on lab activities, and science escape room activities, etc.

One of the most meaningful definitions of innovation to me is asking questions and considering different concepts. I want to bring this to my classroom and have the students seek out different outcomes that they might not have considered before, through new avenues as well.

# data[].attributes.body
Innovation looks like students working together to help each other. Students teaching students, learning the value of teamwork, and being a part of something that is bigger as a whole than just the sum of its parts.

It's also students exploring music through instruments, taking chances, improvising, and discovering how to take ownership of their own learning. For example, listening to Jazz and trying to emulate others that play their instrument; discovering how to play beyond what is written on the page.

This year,I have created a designated day strictly for digital learning. Some of the things I have done are goose chase, flip grid, kahoots and a breakout game, both digital and lock box.

Let students use phones to answer short answer questions.

Keeping an open mind on how things should be is how I am innovative

Innovation in my class will look like a visual representation of one's thought process and problem-solving skills.

Using devices to do research; kids are more excited to participate when they use a cell phone instead of an old laptop

I believe innovation helping students take what they know, add to it and create a product. The products are not always physical. They are mental representations of what they have learned.

- Students create their own Monsters after reading "Man-made Monsters" by Mary Shelley

Innovation in a classroom is the antithesis of the traditional "Sit and Get" mindset.  In my class, this includes students grouping for discussion, use of their own devices to read the text, look up vocabulary, etc. and utilize QR codes, not only answering questions, but CREATING questions, and connecting what they are learning with their "world".

Flipping instruction-giving more ownership of education to the student through the use of technology

Innovation is learning from the past in order to be more successful in the future.

# data[].attributes.body
Innovation is having the students THINK like ARTISTS. My students can ask how to do something so many times, but to a point they have to figure it out themselves. "Solve the problem artistically" Artistic problem solving is big in my class, whether independent or collaborative.

# data[].attributes.body
I have used many QR codes this year. I use them for behavior, tardies, restroom pass and missing supplies. I also use them to check homework!! the kids love to hear the ding when I scan their name!!!!

Innovation looks like students finding new ways to create music as well as using the tools they have learned to teach themselves something new in regards to music

Innovation in my classroom is seen by using Google Classroom to utilize electronic resources to create and establish understanding through practicing concepts taught.

Critical  thinking activities like Breakout Boxes

I believe innovation is working and learning together. Changing how others think by sharing what you know.
