Please give my your best ideas for using Padlet with my middle school English classes! I would specifically love to see suggestions for social-emotional learning! THANK YOU SO MUCH for you HELP!]]> 2019-12-07 16:55:53 UTC https://padlet.com/sbeckley/7s3zo0gslrim/wish/421188931 https://padlet.com/sbeckley/7s3zo0gslrim/wish/421201996 As students begin a unit, ask them to visually represent their experiences with the upcoming book’s topic, theme, or genre. Have everyone share their representations via Padlet. Then, ask them to list commonalities (images that come up over and over) and outliers (images that occur only once). Then ask these questions, which students can respond to in a class discussion or on a separate Padlet page: 
• For the commonalities - Why are THESE the images we associate with this topic? What can we learn about our group from them?
• For the outliers - How do these expand our understanding of this topic? What can we learn from the classmates who created them?

Then lead a very quick discussion: What do they notice? Knowing how they and their classmates feel, how do they want to treat each other? How do they want to treat the work?
Repeat this process after the lesson, but this time ask: What do they notice now? What helped them today? How did they help others?]]> 2019-12-07 21:29:36 UTC https://padlet.com/sbeckley/7s3zo0gslrim/wish/421221288 https://padlet.com/sbeckley/7s3zo0gslrim/wish/421221637 I love using Padlet as an exit ticket after a lesson. It gives a chance to have the students show what they know, but also see what others know. Padlet is a great tool! ]]> 2019-12-07 21:33:31 UTC https://padlet.com/sbeckley/7s3zo0gslrim/wish/421221637 https://padlet.com/sbeckley/7s3zo0gslrim/wish/421221760 https://padlet.com/lucie6/tv0qp64xgs5r]]> 2019-12-07 21:34:53 UTC https://padlet.com/sbeckley/7s3zo0gslrim/wish/421221760 https://padlet.com/sbeckley/7s3zo0gslrim/wish/421226781 The students post tiles with the word, picture that relates, and a sentence with the word.  ]]> 2019-12-07 22:26:59 UTC https://padlet.com/sbeckley/7s3zo0gslrim/wish/421226781
