]]> 2022-02-21 14:41:19 UTC https://padlet.com/engage2learn/SCSparking5/wish/2058891591 Why are we working on blended learning when the district still cannot get 1:1 on devices to my students more than halfway through Q3? https://padlet.com/engage2learn/SCSparking5/wish/2058900367 2022-02-21 14:46:40 UTC https://padlet.com/engage2learn/SCSparking5/wish/2058900367 How exactly does engage2learn show up in the classroom? How do we incorporate it in addition to everything else we are trying to balance in the classroom? https://padlet.com/engage2learn/SCSparking5/wish/2058911077 2022-02-21 14:53:18 UTC https://padlet.com/engage2learn/SCSparking5/wish/2058911077 https://padlet.com/engage2learn/SCSparking5/wish/2058929809 Are we expected to utilize blended learning every single class?]]> 2022-02-21 15:05:32 UTC https://padlet.com/engage2learn/SCSparking5/wish/2058929809 Please address the current challenges affecting teachers because it is affecting teacher retention. Block schedule will be helpful. Focus on helping teacher be more effective than the poster up on their wall. Take a survey of what teachers are really thinking to hear the frustrations. Start implementing. https://padlet.com/engage2learn/SCSparking5/wish/2058966342 2022-02-21 15:28:09 UTC https://padlet.com/engage2learn/SCSparking5/wish/2058966342 Honestly, if students know that grace and mercy will get them passed and feel they have no accountability, how can we look at them with straight faces and tell them that they need to buy into *any* system. Charisma and relationships will only work so far. https://padlet.com/engage2learn/SCSparking5/wish/2058973258 2022-02-21 15:32:47 UTC https://padlet.com/engage2learn/SCSparking5/wish/2058973258 Cell phone usage is an issue. I have heard from a colleague this morning that his building is cell phone free.

If we are supposed to do both, why aren't they presented/trained on together in a coherent way?]]> 2022-02-21 20:40:52 UTC https://padlet.com/engage2learn/SCSparking5/wish/2059353605 Gradual release https://padlet.com/engage2learn/SCSparking5/wish/2059375972 How does using station rotation match up with gradual release?]]> 2022-02-21 21:05:29 UTC https://padlet.com/engage2learn/SCSparking5/wish/2059375972
