I worked to push myself to think differently about how students could share their learning with me.  I tried to let go of the "perfect" ideas and embrace the "let's just see what happens" which is not a strength for me many times!

I enjoyed the challenge of creating valuable assignments that were timely and engaging for the students.
I had constant communication with my  students and parents through See Saw and Canvas and loved seeing their feedback.
I got out of my comfort zone when creating my greetings.
Allowing some time for "Catch-Up" on Friday (with links attached) made it easier for students who were falling behind.
The collaboration between my team was a great support. We encouraged each other and shared constantly. We were all able to benefit from our various strengths.

Using a Google spreadsheet to keep track of assignments turned in was helpful for me.

Communication
Using a Google survey to get feedback from parents worked well.

Creativity
I stretched my creativity to design and make 4 days worth of lessons.

Having 4 days in a row was a bit challenging and a good chance to be creative in choosing topics and projects/activities. It was different to be able to continue a few lessons over a few days. It was fun to share ideas and even build a Team Day of activities with my team. Finally figured out that I don't mind making Welcome Videos anymore, as long as I can wear a hat in the morning!

Due to our many days off,  I tried to be creative in the ways that I connected my e-Learning lessons each day and also in how I connected my lessons to what we were learning in the classroom.  Last week we began learning about the characteristics of a Fable, so an assignment one day was to listen to a Fable read aloud, and the next day, the students explained how the story was a Fable in a Canvas discussion.  I also downloaded all of my students' habitat research presentations that we had just finished and posted them in an assignment as a fun way for each student to "share" their work and explore the hard work of others in our classroom.

Being new to both canvas and e-learning has definitely challenged me professionally in a positive way. Having multiple days in a row of e-learning was an opportunity to become more comfortable with the program and the process. I was able to troubleshoot some issues on my own, as well as seek much needed advice and help from some of my colleagues (Thanks Tara!)

I loved being able to collaborate and work with my grade level. It really helped me be more creative and try some new concepts and ideas!

I had the kiddos creating videos, Explaining the polar vortex with a rubric that allowed for a lot of creativity in their presentation. Their videos were unique and I loved watching them.

I became more creative with my welcome by showing funny pics of my dogs and kids (Brigette in a self created mud puddle.  Then sneaking into the hot tub to clean off.  Theo as a toddler stuffing the toilet with full toilet paper rolls.  Anything not to have to show myself again first thing in the morning!!  Our team does a great job of sharing lessons on our team Canvas page/email too.

Collaboration and creativity was key to keeping 5 and 6 year olds engaged at home - I felt like I grew in my own creativity by having themed lessons, prompting them to be inventors and create, and use objects around the house to extend their learning. I definitely felt like I had to stretch my own learning as well as theirs.

It was great to bounce ideas off of each other.  Personally, I used many Lifeskills:)  It stretched my "techno-skills" but allowed me to be more creative at the same time.  It was nice to get a few positive comments from kiddos and parents in the midst of such a trying week:)

As a grade level, we collaborated on ideas for each day. It was nice to bounce ideas of each other to help ensure that we have fun, yet academic lessons for the 4th grader's elearning. I also became more proficient on Canvas because I had to create and troubleshoot my modules for 4 days! I used life skills like perseverance.

I enjoyed being able to collaborate and share ideas with my grade level. It helped me grow by being able to see others' ideas and incorporate them into my own lessons.

I was able to continue our learning from the classroom by building on concepts each day.  For example, we are working on persuasive writing.  The writing e-learning mini-lessons continued to teach students the steps to writing persuasively by building on the teaching point from the day before, and adding a new goal for them to try in their writing.

I used creativity in my lessons last week. Because I had the same students do e-learning every day, and the same students not do it, I did projects on Thursday and Friday that required my students to learn about the Polar Vortex and to interview someone at home. I also chose exciting brain breaks and did fun intro videos to keep the students engaged.

I became more creative and had themes for the day's lessons.  One day is was as simple as "Muggles Elearning".  Everything that day was written to my Muggles.  Mairy Zent inspired our team to be creative and have our kids do their work in a fort they built.  My theme for the day was forts.  Some students even named theirs.   From Angela
