Students can be creative, show artwork, read poems or just say a few words about what they would doing or creating if they had access to the WOHS LMC in the Maker Space or other areas.

At the bottom of the Flipgrid screen is a comment button where students can leave respectful remarks about on the book review. Students can design their Book Talk, lead with an interesting hook. The more engaging the Book Talk, maybe an incentive can be given when school open back up, such as a cool new poster or their very own copy of the book if they only had an e-book/ audiobook version. I attached a link to my Book Talk on Dear Martin by Nic Stone. ]]> 2020-03-26 05:19:13 UTC https://padlet.com/jmatz/3icnw56rizup/wish/475756690 nlj29 https://padlet.com/jmatz/3icnw56rizup/wish/475763203 I'm sure you guys know about the Myers & Briggs Foundation and its 16 personalities quiz. We've been introduced to this quiz to learn about who we are. As a professional development  or Career Readiness exercise, teachers and students, can see if how they represent themselves is shown outwardly, and to learn new things about themselves so they can perform at their highest level and make improvements in their problem areas.

On Twitter, there's a link to an Educational Guide, though its for 30 days, it sounds like interesting discussions could be explored from this guide and book. Some negative language, such as the N-word, is featured in the book, the Guide discusses how students can talk about the feelings of that word without saying it. Just a thought, maybe best to present when school is back in session. Lively discussions would come out of reading this book. ]]> 2020-03-26 06:13:17 UTC https://padlet.com/jmatz/3icnw56rizup/wish/475781847 nlj29 https://padlet.com/jmatz/3icnw56rizup/wish/478980449 50 Best Podcasts for High School Students.

Some of my favorite writers are featured. A great, but old idea, I read in a 2012 article written by Nikki Robertson is to upload the photo to a photo sharing site like Flickr that gives you a URL that can be shared with others. Students could send the photo to you guys and you could feature it on your newsletter. Just list the students' first name, last initial and their grade. It would also be a cool memory for the senior class to have a section of poetry just from them since they probably won't have an official graduation ceremony. I'll think of other cool tributes for seniors as well. ]]> 2020-04-15 04:28:04 UTC https://padlet.com/jmatz/3icnw56rizup/wish/507704629 nlj29 https://padlet.com/jmatz/3icnw56rizup/wish/507879538 I wanted to create a tutorial on how to create a Book Bento. I didn't mention how to do a voiceover, just how placing related items strategically around a favorite book gives people an idea about what  topics/images are featured in the book. Might be a cool idea for high school students to do either now or when school returns with an English teacher's class.  Hope the Screencast works. ]]> 2020-04-15 07:29:53 UTC https://padlet.com/jmatz/3icnw56rizup/wish/507879538 jmatz https://padlet.com/jmatz/3icnw56rizup/wish/508390133 2020-04-15 12:48:48 UTC https://padlet.com/jmatz/3icnw56rizup/wish/508390133 jmatz https://padlet.com/jmatz/3icnw56rizup/wish/510872297 2020-04-16 14:47:32 UTC https://padlet.com/jmatz/3icnw56rizup/wish/510872297 btindall1 https://padlet.com/jmatz/3icnw56rizup/wish/555876804 The Smithsonian is an undertaking but it would be nice to delve in!]]> 2020-05-06 20:35:21 UTC https://padlet.com/jmatz/3icnw56rizup/wish/555876804
