At a recent Spanish articulation, the presenter showcased Magic School to read and gather feedback on students' written responses in the target language. The presenter suggested using handwritten responses uploaded as a photo by the student so they can not use other AI to generate a response.

We are working on subtraction story problems. I used Magic School's story problem generator. I asked the students for topics they would be interested in, so kids were solving subtraction problems about robots, princesses, minecraft, and more. They really enjoyed it!

1. "The Eagle Who Thought He Was a Chicken" by Richard Bach

2. "Eagle Eye" by Caroline Arnold

3. "The Eagle's Gift" by Barry Lopez

4. "Eagle's Nest" by Patricia Wrightson

5. "The Great Eagle" by Mary Jane Auch

These titles offer a mix of adventure, lessons, and insights into the life and significance of eagles.

I used the Lesson Plan Generator to create a quick 5 minute lesson incorporating our math unit topic (penguins) into a decodable passage that would help students practice our current phonics topic, consonant blends. I printed out the lesson plan, created a decodable passage (also from Magic School), printed that, and then used it during my small group instruction time. Saved me a lot of time, and was a great way to start our small group time. The students really enjoyed it! I liked that the lesson plan included extension activities to use with my students who had a solid understanding of the phonics topic, and needed a bit more.

I used MagicSchool to generate feedback for students during their writing process. After students completed their first draft, MagicSchool created a one page set of feedback for students based on their areas of strength, areas for growth, and writing mechanics. The feedback was tailored to 3rd grade students, was very positive, and actionable. I printed the feedback and highlighted key ideas for students to work on. They were able to use this feedback page to improve their own writing before coming to a conference with the teacher. Students were all able to spend an additional 1-2 class periods improving their work using the feedback form as their guide!

I used the Worksheet Generator to create a "show me what you know" about biographies since I did a huge unit about them across academic domains. I wanted the students to have a variety of different question types (to help get them back in the test taking mode), and an opportunity to write. I then copy and pasted what Magic School came up with into a Google Doc and printed it out. Very user friendly!

I've been using MagicSchool consistently for book recommendations.

I'm also using the Idea Generator this week to inspire topics and themes for poetry. The tool gives random ideas and ideas based on feedback from the students. It has introduced students to new types of poems and made writing poetry easier and more accessible.

I am using the Magic School Exemplar & Non Exemplar to preview our narrative writing unit for my students. I was able to put in my criteria the students will need to make sure they include in their writing, along with the topic. Magic School gave me samples to share and WHY they are exemplary and why they aren't.
