Session 3: Assignment - Shifting Instructional Strategies by Pamela Moeai https://padlet.com/pmoeai1/3kq0lltrc39w Make a note of any teachers in your school who have already started shifting their instructional strategies to a more blended approach. How are they blending teaching and learning? What blended learning model(s) are they using or adapting? en-us 2017-06-11 00:01:08 UTC 2018-01-02 17:15:15 UTC hello@padlet.com Stevenson https://padlet.com/pmoeai1/3kq0lltrc39w/wish/195848493 This 4th grade teacher is working with students to encourage them to explore new topics and use blogging (educational closed site) to share that new learning with the class.]]> 2017-10-11 00:49:27 UTC https://padlet.com/pmoeai1/3kq0lltrc39w/wish/195848493 3rd grade - Wright kplott https://padlet.com/pmoeai1/3kq0lltrc39w/wish/195848542 3rd grade is rocking their flex time. Ms. Grant is using station rotations for math - she teaches them, they watch instructional videos on youtube, and they have a choice board. 
5th grade - Ms. Sikes is making great gains on ST Math
1st Grade: 50% up and running with google classroom and flex time]]> 2017-10-11 00:49:48 UTC https://padlet.com/pmoeai1/3kq0lltrc39w/wish/195848542 Upland Terrace https://padlet.com/pmoeai1/3kq0lltrc39w/wish/195848582 We have a teacher who has made her own videos and used flipped classroom.  Her parent's and students LOVE it and the energy in her room is contagious!]]> 2017-10-11 00:50:07 UTC https://padlet.com/pmoeai1/3kq0lltrc39w/wish/195848582 Magna Elementary https://padlet.com/pmoeai1/3kq0lltrc39w/wish/205074266 Sixth grade teachers are using Google Classroom to deliver content to students and to allow for choice.

Lower grades are using Chromebooks to deliver instruction to small groups using online resources to reteach skills. ]]> 2017-11-08 21:49:28 UTC https://padlet.com/pmoeai1/3kq0lltrc39w/wish/205074266 Diamond Ridge mthayer3 https://padlet.com/pmoeai1/3kq0lltrc39w/wish/205092889 We have several teachers using Google Classroom. I observed a 5th grade class today where the teacher created her first Hyperdoc, used padlet, videos, Google forms......so much great stuff. Teachers are utilizing iReady and ST Math, as well as other Internet resources. A 1st grade teacher created a Google sheet so everyone could add their favorite Internet resources they're using with their kiddos. Everyone pledged to try something new from the list by Thanksgiving. One of my kindergarten teachers is inspired to create a blended space for each letter. Anyone want to inspire their kinder team so they can divide and conquer the letters together? Chromebooks in the hands of every student has truly changed our school. Thank you for this wonderful opportunity!]]> 2017-11-08 23:29:20 UTC https://padlet.com/pmoeai1/3kq0lltrc39w/wish/205092889 West Valley Elementary rbaggett https://padlet.com/pmoeai1/3kq0lltrc39w/wish/205438749 6th Grade is using Google Classroom for differentiated instruction and collaboration. They also are using gamification for CFA's and student choice. Students created their own SMART Lab quizzes and shared them to Google Classroom. 

1st grade is using EdPuzzle in small groups to reinforce concepts taught in class. 

Our 4th grade team is working on creating Hyperdocs and using many technology tools to engage their students (Google Forms, Google Drawing, Padlet, etc.).

More than 1/2 of our classroom teachers are using Google Classroom on a daily basis.]]> 2017-11-09 21:47:40 UTC https://padlet.com/pmoeai1/3kq0lltrc39w/wish/205521291 Hunter El https://padlet.com/pmoeai1/3kq0lltrc39w/wish/206937897 I am thrilled with the activities and learning tools all of our teachers are using! One teacher created a #Hunter video using Adobe Spark! Another took her class to Zions National Park via a virtual field trip! Every student is on a Chromebook every day in every classroom! The students are accessing ST Math, and Lexia Core 5 on their Chromebooks as well as Go Math and Wonders activities online. Many teachers are using Google Classroom with great success! Learning looks different this year at Hunter El! ]]> 2017-11-14 19:47:56 UTC https://padlet.com/pmoeai1/3kq0lltrc39w/wish/206937897 Lake Ridge kdreidford1 https://padlet.com/pmoeai1/3kq0lltrc39w/wish/206944049 Nearly all teachers managing their classrooms to some degree using Google Classroom!

-1st - assigning templates to practice basic Chromebook navigation skills via Google Classroom.
-2nd - Teachers nearly proficient assigning own Google Classroom assignments. Going solo assigning a hyperdoc investigation template today.
-3rd - Using Google Classroom to deliver weblinks for math rotations. Using Prodigy Math to monitor curiculum coverage and student mastery.
-6th - consistently using Google Forms for CFAs. Students are creating their own Eportfolios via Google Sites. Starting first multimedia project soon.]]> 2017-11-14 20:00:14 UTC https://padlet.com/pmoeai1/3kq0lltrc39w/wish/206944049 Calvin Smith https://padlet.com/pmoeai1/3kq0lltrc39w/wish/206947286 We have several of our teachers using Google classroom effectively with their students. I have several teachers are using the collaborative component of Google Classroom to have students work on projects together as well as to provide feedback. I also have a 3rd grade teacher who has started to experiment with a modified flipped classroom. She uses instructional videos to provide the instruction during rotation stations and then works in small groups with students who need support. Our teachers also share apps and implementation ideas on a regular basis.

One of my rockstar 6th grade teachers has developed his own Amazing Race (Egyptian Style) to incorporate the blended approach with core standards. https://padlet.com/pmoeai1/3kq0lltrc39w/wish/206996231 2017-11-14 22:39:19 UTC https://padlet.com/pmoeai1/3kq0lltrc39w/wish/206996231 Upland Terrace https://padlet.com/pmoeai1/3kq0lltrc39w/wish/218360077 Another thought from Upland Terrace...my kindergarten teacher - who was apprehensive about using Chromebooks with the littles - has now integrated the use of Chromebooks in her center time.  She has been so pleased with what her students are able to to independently.  They have exceeded her expectations!
