Have students practice giving critique about things like the classroom environment and class meetings before they critique actual work. Veronica does this to teach her students a “plusses and deltas” protocol, and also uses exit tickets to collect feedback.

Celebrate occasions when students successfully receive and use feedback.

Post a collection of student work – anonymously – on the wall so students can practice using a rubric and crafting feedback.  

Start with a visual piece of work to give students practice in critique and revision. Give students clear, specific constraints for the work to guide feedback, such as text size, number of images, appropriate colors, etc.

To build their expertise and learn to use critique protocols, teachers can practice with their colleagues in professional development sessions. Dave showed pictures of teachers and administrators visiting classrooms to look at “project walls” created by teachers and using a protocol to give feedback.

We have many siblings at our school and it would be a great way for them to look forward to hearing from someone that they know.]]> 2020-02-06 16:19:01 UTC https://padlet.com/ekellymac/1fcb9e5m2y1y/wish/441644828 https://padlet.com/ekellymac/1fcb9e5m2y1y/wish/441645056 We have used Canvases discussion boards for classes to communicate with each other on how to build earthquake proof buildings in our Asian unit. They gave tips and hints as well as friendly banter for the next class to read and then being building their own. By the time my last class was able to do the activity the buildings were getting quite impressive.]]> 2020-02-06 16:19:20 UTC https://padlet.com/ekellymac/1fcb9e5m2y1y/wish/441645056 https://padlet.com/ekellymac/1fcb9e5m2y1y/wish/441645401 Have you thought of using Google Keep? Students can write on paper, take a picture of what they have written and Google Keep can Grab Image Text. Here's the best part. If it doesn't pick up some of their writing it's because it doesn't recognize it and they will have to try harder to write legibly. This is only on an iPad or mobile device.]]> 2020-02-06 16:19:46 UTC https://padlet.com/ekellymac/1fcb9e5m2y1y/wish/441645401 cdrake3 https://padlet.com/ekellymac/1fcb9e5m2y1y/wish/441645433 Heard this idea this week: Create a Google Keep list of common comments students could (should) make on peers' papers. Kids can pull up the list on google keep/google docs and pull into their comments]]> 2020-02-06 16:19:48 UTC https://padlet.com/ekellymac/1fcb9e5m2y1y/wish/441645433 https://padlet.com/ekellymac/1fcb9e5m2y1y/wish/441645679 1) Definitely a cool way to involve lots of groups of people in the PBL books.
2) I'm considering adapting my gallery walks from paper/pen to Google Docs. ]]> 2020-02-06 16:20:08 UTC https://padlet.com/ekellymac/1fcb9e5m2y1y/wish/441645679 https://padlet.com/ekellymac/1fcb9e5m2y1y/wish/441645857 You mentioned something about sharing some teacher-made rubrics earlier. Where could I find them?]]> 2020-02-06 16:20:21 UTC https://padlet.com/ekellymac/1fcb9e5m2y1y/wish/441645857 douggreek https://padlet.com/ekellymac/1fcb9e5m2y1y/wish/441646603 Connect students through FlipGrid. 5th grade students read a book to kindergarten students and pose a question. Kindergarten students listen while holding the book to follow along, then answer the question. The 5th grade student then relies on FlipGrid with correct or incorrect and “why”. Great way to build community when time is limited.
