My idea was to use a blank Instagram post layout to have students complete book reviews. The image could be the book cover and then they could review the book in the text portion and give their opinions on what the book was about and maybe even give the book a rating. The standard of focus would be for second grade and it is
W.2.1: Write opinion pieces in which they introduce the topic or book they are writing about, state an opinion, supply reasons that support the opinion, use linking words to connect opinion and reasons, and provide a concluding statement or section.
W.2.4: With guidance and support from adults, use a variety of digital tools and resources to produce and publish writing, including in collaboration with peers.

Something I did in a previous children’s lit class was make an Instagram page dedicated to sharing booking with students and other teachers. I still occasionally post on it (even though I know I should more) and I follow several other students from my class as we share good children’s book for our classroom. This is a shared space I would love to create for my students as well. I would have to get parent permission before but if every student was able to set up a book sharing account, I think the students would be much more motivated to read new books and to participate in a classroom literary collaboration. What’s nice about this is that you can modify it to fit your specific classes needs. If you are working with younger student, I would recommend having them, use an Instagram template. If you are with older kids and have gotten parent permission, I think they would be able to form an independent literary community and encourage reading for both themselves and their friends. You could also use the template if you wanted a singular book review. The app however would be good to encourage reading time outside the classroom. Bellow I have an example of my Instagram page @smilebooks123 😊

One way I could incorporate social media in the classroom is by creating an Instagram page for my students. I would get permission from all of my students parents. The page needs to be appropriate for children by age. I would use an Instagram page for higher elementary grades. The main purpose for an Instagram page is to post homework. A lot of times students may have trouble remembering homework due dates and assignments. Explaining homework assignments during class wastes valuable time. An Instagram page that provides the resources and information needed for daily homework could prove to be beneficial for my students. Students are able to post questions, ideas, and get guided help by peers. This is a great tool to promote collaborative group work and encourage students to work as a team. To provide extra support I would answer questions about the homework the following day during the beginning of class time.

My idea would be to create an instagram page to highlight student work. I will be working with high school English students, and one of the classes I am most looking forward to teaching is Creative Writing. By creating a class instagram I can offer  students who submit excellent work, such as poetry, short stories, songs, etc., a place to showcase that work. I would like to keep the entire page anonymous, which would protect student identity, personal information, and the like. I would also hope that anonymity would  encourage shyer students to post. I chose Instagram for this because it is fairly easy to post works, anonymity would be very easy to ensure, and comments and followers can be heavily monitored to protect students.

Using social media in the classroom is super helpful and thankfully we live in an age where there are multiple platforms to use.
In general, I will definitely utilize things like Instagram, Twitter, and Snapchat for my future students.
With Instagram: I can post general updates about important up-and-coming homework/projects, class events, and future field trips. Additionally, I can create projects where students make fictional posts portraying historical figures/events. Instagram would also be helpful with having a class-specific account where I can post pictures showcasing work (projects) for parents and family.
With Twitter/Snapchat: I can also use these platforms to allow students to pretend like they are historical figures.
With YouTube: Students can have the option to present projects in the form of video. Future students can present recorded lectures or presentations about various historical topics.

Because I don't like the idea of promoting much social media in preschool I went with a different kind of use. I would work on  Goal ESD-6: Children identify, manage, and express their feelings. I have a feeling chart with nine different emojis. I would use that to have children learn about feelings and be able to express them.

My idea was for high school health and physical education students. I would have them make a TikTok account and assign each student a muscle group. They would have to post video workouts for those muscle groups to prove knowledge of what each group is capable of.

My idea is something that I read about in class but I would want to make some changes. I would want to use a Facebook group that all of my students would be on and that would be a place where I could post homework assignments, of course not all of the homework would be on the facebook group but certain assignments would. Something I had also thought about was doing a forum post style assignment on the facebook group. This would easily allow me and other students to see and respond to posts while also allowing students to post different resources they might've used so that other students could use the same things.

My idea would have a cut out cardboard box Instagram layout and students would hold up the copied layout and have their picture taken behind the board and hang it up in the classroom for students of the week.

My idea would be to use social media as a way to show my students online field trips. One of the 3rd grade science standards is to be knowledgable in the realm of the solar system. With this, I could use tik Tok as a way to show them skilled videos of the sky and planatariums. As well, I could use instagram as a way to show them images of planetariums that students are unable to actually go to.

I would use Instagram because I have already used it before, and I've seen it done. Last semester, I posted for the 100 Days of Practice which forced me to practice my instrument for 100 days straight, and my playing improved tremendously because of it. For kids, the action could be really fun, and they would learn what is practicing because the term is much broader than simply playing the chosen instrument. I would have the kids count listening to their pieces or doing mental practice or practice without the instrument in their hand. This would give me the opportunity to touch on many different standards.

I think that I would use a new Pinterest account and create ideas and pin boards per subject and take pictures online and use them to create themes for group discussion because I want to teach younger grades therefore I wouldn’t allow them to open the app themselves. I would create the guidelines for it and only allow them to see what I pick as they are so young. But for example I would select a picture or a few for science like if it were a forest and have it as a reference to keep learning with.

I thought it would be a good idea to have use an Instagram template. The students could pretend to post something on Instagram about nature. This would help them to look at the world around them. They could take pictures of things they find and explain what is in the picture. I think it would help students to notice how science is around them all of the time. They can share things that they find interesting. I think templates would work better because I want to teach elementary school.

I want to teach 2nd grade preferably, so I want to incorporate social media in a way to showcase their work. This is because during these younger grades, students are creating a lot of cute projects and activities. By having a social media page, which I could do Instagram or Facebook, parents are able to see their child's work as well as the students to look back on. I could also showcase other things such as reminders for important events coming up in class. I also liked the idea of having a student of the week on there as well.

A way I would incorporate social media into my classroom would be through TikTok. I am going to use eighth grade for an example. My idea would be that the students could use TikTok to film their process in creating a painting. They could record things like the mixing of paint colors, the sketch they make before they start painting, and the progress throughout the piece. They wouldn't have to talk if they didn't want to, it can be very cool to just see a sped up video of people painting if that is what they want to do, and it would be short, about one minute long, so they can share it with the class and display their final product. They could put an appropriate song over it if they wanted to. If a student doesn't have a way to use TikTok or is not allowed to (I will have to ask for parental permission to use TikTok in the class and use a singular shared TikTok class account) they can use pictures or writing to document their progress. This activity is a good way to show kids that progress isn't always linear, and that everyone goes about making their art differently.

My idea is to have a lesson that includes readying my students a story or a play. while we are getting into role work, we can start to think like the different characters. I would have my students create three different social media posts that the character might have posted. i would probably use a platform like instagram because they can post a photo or a series of photos, as well as caption it thinking like a character from the story. it is a great way to get into the mindset of the character they are given.

Since I want to teach Kindergarten, I would create a private Instagram or Facebook to post the children's work, their progress through pictures and videos. I would use social media mostly for the parents but also as a place for student teachers, other teachers, and parents to go and look at different activities the children completed, pictures, and videos of them performing certain developmental goals. It would also be a place for updates on school information, links, and resources for parents to use to become more involved.

My idea is to teach students about Propaganda and political art using Pinterest. This lesson can be used and adapted for an art history, printmaking and graphic design class. The lesson would be catered to higher Ed students but could easily be altered for a grade level art class. Students will be split into groups and given a country and a specific decade, they will do research on that country in the context of the assigned decade and will create a Pinterest board of political and propaganda art made by that country in that decade.

Students will pick three pieces of art from their Pinterest board and do research on the artwork and groups will give a short presentation on their findings to the class.

After presentations, the teacher will give a brief power point presentation on the history and context of political and propaganda art, demonstrating that propaganda art has been around as far back as ancient civilizations. The teacher will open up a discussion to the class about the material covered and ask "what are things in media today that could be classified as propaganda art?" Most likely a student will bring up memes, if not the teacher will bring up memes and show examples. From here, each respective art class will move into their assignment. For art history, students will write a synthesis paper on the design elements and cultural relativitism of their assigned political/propaganda art in context of the country and decade. They will then compare and contrast that era of artwork with meme culture. For a printmaking studio, students will be asked to create a print in the same style and design principles of their assigned country and decade, but be challenged to incorporate meme culture within. An example would be a Russian Cold War era poster with kermit the frog holding an axe and sickle. A graphic design class would have the same assignment but they would be challenged with manipulating and using their software to create the same design principles presented in their political art references.

I would mainly use social media in the classroom in order to extend time engaged with the student and in order to make sure all involved are updated! In particular, I would use twitter. I would have a separate professional twitter for students to be able to tweet questions at. Further, I would post important updates regarding assignments or what we would be doing in class. That being said, I'm considering the benefits of occasionally posting things about my interests and hobbies, in order to have the students to get to know me better. I know a thin line is walked here, so I'm still thinking about it. I would also use Instagram; I might post about what we went over in class, outstanding assignments/projects, and potentially use it for assignments themselves.
