He comes to my school regularly and engages with us- lots of open ended conversations around education and learning with works of social justice. ]]> 2021-11-11 01:00:07 UTC https://padlet.com/monosmith/3o8gmzsqpahp06tu/wish/1882795396 madisonstokes https://padlet.com/monosmith/3o8gmzsqpahp06tu/wish/1882795530 Recap of an ELA training we had all already done on our own time.. AND it was virtual so it was even trickier to stay present! ]]> 2021-11-11 01:00:11 UTC https://padlet.com/monosmith/3o8gmzsqpahp06tu/wish/1882795530 https://padlet.com/monosmith/3o8gmzsqpahp06tu/wish/1882795586 Great: Having time to collaborate with content teachers to work on effective use of our new curriculum that we implemented this year - training was included which really helped!

Not-So-Great: There have been some PD meetings that go over very specific goals that don't apply to me or other departments so it felt like a waste of time sitting through it since it didn't apply to us.]]> 2021-11-11 01:00:13 UTC https://padlet.com/monosmith/3o8gmzsqpahp06tu/wish/1882795586 https://padlet.com/monosmith/3o8gmzsqpahp06tu/wish/1882797109 2021-11-11 01:00:47 UTC https://padlet.com/monosmith/3o8gmzsqpahp06tu/wish/1882797109 laurathoresen20 https://padlet.com/monosmith/3o8gmzsqpahp06tu/wish/1882797183 Before we went to distance learning I had a PD on Seesaw while it was new to me. At the time the presenter had us create an activity using a template that she had that would relate to our own classroom.

Many of our district PD options are required and repeated year to year, especially at the beginning of the year. They group you by grade level and retell you about how to administer running records. One this fall also was only 8 minutes and then gave us "collaboration time" to meet with teams to discuss one question.]]> 2021-11-11 01:00:49 UTC https://padlet.com/monosmith/3o8gmzsqpahp06tu/wish/1882797183 https://padlet.com/monosmith/3o8gmzsqpahp06tu/wish/1882798016 Had a PD experience over NUA strategies that were not new strategies and we were forced to practice the strategies in small groups and everyone wanted to be doing other things and no one was motivated to participate. NUA trainings have since gotten better. ]]> 2021-11-11 01:01:10 UTC https://padlet.com/monosmith/3o8gmzsqpahp06tu/wish/1882798016 koernerc3 https://padlet.com/monosmith/3o8gmzsqpahp06tu/wish/1882798963 Fast Bridge Training... it was extremely long and felt like it could have been done in a few video tutorials vs hours of training. ]]> 2021-11-11 01:01:32 UTC https://padlet.com/monosmith/3o8gmzsqpahp06tu/wish/1882798963 https://padlet.com/monosmith/3o8gmzsqpahp06tu/wish/1882799132 2021-11-11 01:01:37 UTC https://padlet.com/monosmith/3o8gmzsqpahp06tu/wish/1882799132 https://padlet.com/monosmith/3o8gmzsqpahp06tu/wish/1882799651 I had a great PD about growth mindset and using words like "perplexed" instead of "confused"! It was really helpful. We read "the butterfly story". ]]> 2021-11-11 01:01:47 UTC https://padlet.com/monosmith/3o8gmzsqpahp06tu/wish/1882799651 https://padlet.com/monosmith/3o8gmzsqpahp06tu/wish/1882803002 Anything that is repetitive, or not collaborative. It makes them less engaging! As teachers, we all love to talk! ]]> 2021-11-11 01:03:13 UTC https://padlet.com/monosmith/3o8gmzsqpahp06tu/wish/1882803002
