It tells students immediately whether they are correct or not. When the students answer the question correct, they will get the points. If they do not get it correct, IXL will take aways points. Also, I set the minimum score to be 80 and they will get a 3 for the score. The score of 80 means that they understand the basic concept. They can keep trying to get a higher score, but it also means the difficulty level will increase. I set 80-89 for a 3, 90-94 for a 3.5 and 95 - 100 for a 4. In this way, if the students understand the concept, then they may need to answer few questions to get 80. If the students do not understand the concept, it sometimes may takes them to answer 30-40 questions until they get the score of 80. Also, there is another good feature about IXL. It has a live window. It allows me to see who is working on the IXL skills now, and who is keep getting the question incorrect (in this case, I know which students may need help.). jlin86 https://padlet.com/msmccoy12/cu3bg011id0v1r0a/wish/1238388283 -Ms. Lin]]> 2021-02-24 20:28:20 UTC https://padlet.com/msmccoy12/cu3bg011id0v1r0a/wish/1238388283 I also use the Nearpod for students to show their work. So, I can identify their common error and mistakes. Also, I can notice which students do not do the questions. jlin86 https://padlet.com/msmccoy12/cu3bg011id0v1r0a/wish/1238430952 -Ms. Lin]]> 2021-02-24 20:40:15 UTC https://padlet.com/msmccoy12/cu3bg011id0v1r0a/wish/1238430952 I use book creator to encourage students to post and share their work. Students create their own books/book chapters and can be artistic and super creative! They can collaborate or work independently at their own pace. They can also comment on other people's work, give constructive feedback and share glows and grows. They are very enthusiastic to present their work, so they practice pronunciation, fluency and presentation skills. Most importantly, it has added some fun and students feel proud of their work! https://padlet.com/msmccoy12/cu3bg011id0v1r0a/wish/1238446644 I attached the link if you would like to take a peek:) The Passcode is

Only the teacher knows who is responding during the live lesson, anonymity makes students feel more comfortable sharing their thoughts. When the live lesson is over, it is easy to convert it to an asynchronous lesson. This allows students who missed live instruction to work on the lesson at their own pace and add on to the conversation. emoreno92 https://padlet.com/msmccoy12/cu3bg011id0v1r0a/wish/1253065398 Ms. Moreno]]> 2021-03-01 13:50:10 UTC https://padlet.com/msmccoy12/cu3bg011id0v1r0a/wish/1253065398 Strategy: Mote Audio Comments https://padlet.com/msmccoy12/cu3bg011id0v1r0a/wish/1253143532 Installing the Mote extension in Google Chrome allows me to turn any comment into an audio comment up to 30 seconds. They are easy to post, and can often jumpstart a students' progress with quick translations as well as work as a low stakes check in. Next goal: get them to respond using the audio notes!

In my daily routine, I would spend 5-7 minutes on modeling, then I would let my students working on desmos as practice. ]]> 2021-03-01 16:32:55 UTC https://padlet.com/msmccoy12/cu3bg011id0v1r0a/wish/1254057969 Earth Science & APES https://padlet.com/msmccoy12/cu3bg011id0v1r0a/wish/1254091856 For Earth Science, students have their assignments uploaded the week before. Assignments have the same format, engagement (activating previous knowledge), video, reading with guided questions, and applying concepts.  By maintaining the same structure, students are more confident in completing their work. During live sections, students are able to ask for explanations and to improve their assignments. Also, I can assess them during the Do Now and Exit Slip.  

I'm also using MOTE voice recording to comment on students' work. Mr. Ash does that during our 7th period. 

To avoid students "copy and paste" from the internet, I use Grammarly to check if students plagiarize their work.  Students google everything.  They are avoiding watching the videos or reading by looking for answers. Most of the time, their responses don't make sense because of that. 

For my AP class, I'm using the AP for All Classroom. They have videos and questions for each topic. Students have to watch, summarize and respond to the questions.  During the live section, students discuss the topic with me.  By doing this, students can connect the concept with real-life situations. Also, they will be college-ready.  Students know in advance what we are going to discuss.

Blooket is very similar to Kahoot but it is in a game mode. Teacher can assign it as homework where students can play it on their own pace or during the class, as a live game. There are multiple games you can choose from. So far I used Gold Quest and Factory in my class, my students love it. ]]> 2021-03-01 16:38:27 UTC https://padlet.com/msmccoy12/cu3bg011id0v1r0a/wish/1254094270 Jamboard DO NOW https://padlet.com/msmccoy12/cu3bg011id0v1r0a/wish/1254177760 Using Jamboard for a DO NOW question allows students to participate without pressure, check for understanding and see what they know about a topic.

We confirm progress daily, work 1:1 in real time & set up times to meet separately if needed. ]]> 2021-03-01 18:39:39 UTC https://padlet.com/msmccoy12/cu3bg011id0v1r0a/wish/1254832445 Book Clubs msmccoy12 https://padlet.com/msmccoy12/cu3bg011id0v1r0a/wish/1254983024 My students have been reading books in small groups that they chose. I would give mini-lessons around skills and questions to apply to their books and they would answer based on their books. On asynchronous- days they would meet in their book clubs to discuss  their books. Now they are doing final projects where they have to create a multi-modal representation of a theme from their book, write about their creation, and present. It's been good!!

Students have become acquainted with using the POST-IT Notes. I like to use Word Generation for the ESL5/6 class when develop arguments. I try to have students complete as many pre-writing activities as possible to prepare students for the writing task. ]]> 2021-03-01 19:42:56 UTC https://padlet.com/msmccoy12/cu3bg011id0v1r0a/wish/1255171818 Posting Priorities https://padlet.com/msmccoy12/cu3bg011id0v1r0a/wish/1255199899 Every day I will give students a list of priorities. Most students use it as a checklist to see what we have been doing and what they should be up to. 

EXAMPLE: 
1) Revise TASK 1
2) CLOSE Reading on TASK 2
3) Complete Documents in TASK 4

This also allows students to speak to their progress as to what they are up to and still need to do. ]]> 2021-03-01 19:48:49 UTC https://padlet.com/msmccoy12/cu3bg011id0v1r0a/wish/1255199899 Ed puzzle/ Actively Learn https://padlet.com/msmccoy12/cu3bg011id0v1r0a/wish/1312295871 Great websites to monitor student progress and mastery of content.
