There are 4 choices: what to learn, how to learn it, how well, and why]]> 2016-09-12 17:29:12 UTC https://padlet.com/jriese1/f038dia0e39g/wish/123230765 Integrating Subjects jriese1 https://padlet.com/jriese1/f038dia0e39g/wish/123232452 By integrating subjects together, teachers are able to use other subjects to help teach a specific one. They are able to pull ideas from those topics and use it towards teaching a new lesson. It also helps to keep kids involved because they learn that everything is somehow related.]]> 2016-09-12 17:32:26 UTC https://padlet.com/jriese1/f038dia0e39g/wish/123232452 Encourage Creativity jriese1 https://padlet.com/jriese1/f038dia0e39g/wish/123233622 Encouraging a student to think creatively will help them to understand the information in their own way. It will also allow for them to think "outside of the box" when it comes to real-world problems/issues. They will also understand that there are multiple ways to get to the answer.]]> 2016-09-12 17:34:34 UTC https://padlet.com/jriese1/f038dia0e39g/wish/123233622 My summary jriese1 https://padlet.com/jriese1/f038dia0e39g/wish/123235048 I never realized how many options there were to motivating students. I remember doing some, if not all, of these throughout my educational career. Some I enjoyed and others I didn't care for. The options I picked out above are ones I liked and ones that have a lot of variety to be used in the classroom in different ways.I think as educators, it's about getting to know your students and figuring out what works for them, what their interests are, and ways to keep them motivated. Each student is going to be different and have different needs. It's about learning how to manage that with what you're supposed to be teaching and what they're supposed to be learning.]]> 2016-09-12 17:37:14 UTC https://padlet.com/jriese1/f038dia0e39g/wish/123235048
