The students developed understanding of history, ethics, research skills, reading summary, and many science outcomes. ]]> 2021-09-15 18:06:09 UTC https://padlet.com/gabriellafigueiredo4_1/rlcidqds38mbs36w/wish/1743627264 gabriellafigueiredo4_1 https://padlet.com/gabriellafigueiredo4_1/rlcidqds38mbs36w/wish/1744102506 We had some weeks where students were overwhelmed by assignments, and we ran out of time to finish everything in class. I think having more breathing room would allow us to reteach key things better as well. The project did move quickly]]> 2021-09-15 22:32:35 UTC https://padlet.com/gabriellafigueiredo4_1/rlcidqds38mbs36w/wish/1744102506 gabriellafigueiredo4_1 https://padlet.com/gabriellafigueiredo4_1/rlcidqds38mbs36w/wish/1744104389 History lessons were highly engaging and where kids got the most shifts in perspectives (WW2, Pearl Harbor, Gallery Walk, etc..) I think we could have had a bit more of that context, even as optional HW extension.. and kids would appreciate it]]> 2021-09-15 22:34:12 UTC https://padlet.com/gabriellafigueiredo4_1/rlcidqds38mbs36w/wish/1744104389 gabriellafigueiredo4_1 https://padlet.com/gabriellafigueiredo4_1/rlcidqds38mbs36w/wish/1744105197 We need to revisit some of the deleted chapters and consider swapping out chapters that we maybe didn't have to assign. Plan B would be adding a summary of the chapter we skipped into the next day's slide to fill in the gaps.]]> 2021-09-15 22:34:55 UTC https://padlet.com/gabriellafigueiredo4_1/rlcidqds38mbs36w/wish/1744105197 maiuicamargo1_1 https://padlet.com/gabriellafigueiredo4_1/rlcidqds38mbs36w/wish/1744157634 This project contains the most abstract parts of Science that we teach in 7th grade. Because of the fast pace, I feel students might have gotten lost with this, so I'm thinking of ways to make this very abstract content become even more visible (more than the model classes I had)]]> 2021-09-15 23:18:51 UTC https://padlet.com/gabriellafigueiredo4_1/rlcidqds38mbs36w/wish/1744157634 maiuicamargo1_1 https://padlet.com/gabriellafigueiredo4_1/rlcidqds38mbs36w/wish/1744167050 Students were super engaged with the firefighter talking about fires, safety protocols and fire extinguishers. ]]> 2021-09-15 23:26:22 UTC https://padlet.com/gabriellafigueiredo4_1/rlcidqds38mbs36w/wish/1744167050 maiuicamargo1_1 https://padlet.com/gabriellafigueiredo4_1/rlcidqds38mbs36w/wish/1744169781 For next cycle, we should include in parents welcome-email an explanation of academic dishonesty. I think parents freak out when they read "dishonesty", so smoothing out this term beforehand might avoid complications throughout the cycle ]]> 2021-09-15 23:28:28 UTC https://padlet.com/gabriellafigueiredo4_1/rlcidqds38mbs36w/wish/1744169781 maiuicamargo1_1 https://padlet.com/gabriellafigueiredo4_1/rlcidqds38mbs36w/wish/1744172143 I wish we could have had a real audience (apart from parents on zoom) for kids to do their storytelling - so maybe next time we can think more on this... we can maybe even stagger the 7th grade project showcases so that we have them happening at different times to parents and then have time for the kids to see each other's showcases ]]> 2021-09-15 23:30:11 UTC https://padlet.com/gabriellafigueiredo4_1/rlcidqds38mbs36w/wish/1744172143 maiuicamargo1_1 https://padlet.com/gabriellafigueiredo4_1/rlcidqds38mbs36w/wish/1744175508 Students satisfied with Developing and saying "it's not a Recuperação grade".

I think we need to narrow their research options a bit more and structure HOW they are finding sources in a better way... kids didnt get enough useable evidence and that made writing harder ]]> 2021-09-15 23:33:39 UTC https://padlet.com/gabriellafigueiredo4_1/rlcidqds38mbs36w/wish/1744177069 gabriellafigueiredo4_1 https://padlet.com/gabriellafigueiredo4_1/rlcidqds38mbs36w/wish/1744179125 1.

Share with them how final grades for outcomes are "calculated" and make them aware of their responsibilities and what we expect of them! ]]> 2021-09-15 23:39:39 UTC https://padlet.com/gabriellafigueiredo4_1/rlcidqds38mbs36w/wish/1744184903 maiuicamargo1_1 https://padlet.com/gabriellafigueiredo4_1/rlcidqds38mbs36w/wish/1744189031 We should identify key moments for kids to fill out Bulb during the cycle. ]]> 2021-09-15 23:42:53 UTC https://padlet.com/gabriellafigueiredo4_1/rlcidqds38mbs36w/wish/1744189031 maiuicamargo1_1 https://padlet.com/gabriellafigueiredo4_1/rlcidqds38mbs36w/wish/1744194203 First cycle is always so rushed so it was hard-impossible to do this, but now that I have my lessons prepared, I want to involve Marina more in them.
