This gives multiple times to touch base as well as students time to work independently. I can customize small group time to fit the students needs ]]> 2020-09-21 20:16:20 UTC https://padlet.com/rburggraaf/cgdfeueasdxuodjk/wish/765926946 I plan to use "Tic Tac Toe" templates that will allow this https://padlet.com/rburggraaf/cgdfeueasdxuodjk/wish/765927025 ELA 8

For the students who finish early or don't need a small group, I use ALEKS, Readworks, Common Lit, and writing probes to progress monitor while I work one-on-one or small group with students who need more direct instruction
. I keep the meet open for anyone who has a question.  ]]> 2020-09-21 20:17:16 UTC https://padlet.com/rburggraaf/cgdfeueasdxuodjk/wish/765929184 Students respond with a number from 1 to 5 (1 is they understand completely/like, 5 is they understand nothing/dislike). They can do this verbally or with their hand.

The students are loving it! High School https://padlet.com/rburggraaf/cgdfeueasdxuodjk/wish/765929391

]]> 2020-09-21 20:17:21 UTC https://padlet.com/rburggraaf/cgdfeueasdxuodjk/wish/765929391 I have used Padlet in class to create a sense of whole-class collaboration. So far, I have only used it to test out games, but the kids are already asking to do it again. adeese3 https://padlet.com/rburggraaf/cgdfeueasdxuodjk/wish/765929426 2020-09-21 20:17:22 UTC https://padlet.com/rburggraaf/cgdfeueasdxuodjk/wish/765929426 I create Google Forms used to refresh note-taking from the previous class. aleveck https://padlet.com/rburggraaf/cgdfeueasdxuodjk/wish/765930402 2020-09-21 20:17:46 UTC https://padlet.com/rburggraaf/cgdfeueasdxuodjk/wish/765930402 I do a mini lesson in math as a whole group.
