The author did not say that students should never take notes digitally - only that they are less likely to "think" and therefore remember what they are writing, because it is so easy to type.

After reading the article the parent shared how it definitely hits home with how difficult it can be to communicate well with the school AND their child's therapist. It's clear to me now that crucial conversations with parents is a must and that we should "acknowledge that parents and educators bring different kinds of wisdom to the picture of the whole child." We must work together as a team. A child can have the most supportive parents in a school with the most knowledgable staff but if the team is not on the same page when it comes to the child... all the experience in the world is not going to make a difference. In the end,  collaboration (consistency, continuity, and communication) is key.

Season 2 goes as far as including the ASD community with 8 new cast members who are all on the Autism Spectrum.]]> 2018-11-19 05:19:09 UTC https://padlet.com/godsiffc/u6s3v2vkse5t/wish/305776488 Question for reflection. godsiffc https://padlet.com/godsiffc/u6s3v2vkse5t/wish/305777773 "Should we encourage students to embrace handwritten notes?" How many of us, as adults, are distracted when we use our laptops or phones to take notes during meetings or professional learning? ]]> 2018-11-19 05:32:38 UTC https://padlet.com/godsiffc/u6s3v2vkse5t/wish/305777773 Emotions https://padlet.com/godsiffc/u6s3v2vkse5t/wish/305787897 Students come to school with various feelings (tired, sad, worried, scared, excited). Sometimes they wish to share and other times not. I have seen the suggestion of having a quick 1 minute meeting with up to 3 students in the mornings while the others get adjusted and wish I could accomplish this better. Those whom we know are having difficulty, we could aim to meet with more frequently.

When I am able to pass on my skills to the people who are in need, I feel the sense of achievement, and I would want to do even better. https://padlet.com/godsiffc/u6s3v2vkse5t/wish/305788060 2018-11-19 06:59:06 UTC https://padlet.com/godsiffc/u6s3v2vkse5t/wish/305788060 Writing notes down on paper has given my students an alternative medium to write their thoughts down and summarize information in their own voice, which provides them a method to consolidate information. https://padlet.com/godsiffc/u6s3v2vkse5t/wish/305788291 2018-11-19 07:00:49 UTC https://padlet.com/godsiffc/u6s3v2vkse5t/wish/305788291 1. I also tend to retain more when I handwrite notes because I am forced to process information so that I minimize the amount of note-taking in the limited amount of time I have. https://padlet.com/godsiffc/u6s3v2vkse5t/wish/305788318 2018-11-19 07:00:59 UTC https://padlet.com/godsiffc/u6s3v2vkse5t/wish/305788318 This article hits home when I think about my children coming to their teen years and being at risk of mental illness. How will I know? How will I be open to it? How will I move forward in a supportive manner? As an educator, it's my job to know...and yet I've had no training. If one and five kids have mental illness, then without a doubt, we as teachers should be clear on the warning signs and on what our actions should be. We are trained in child abuse..why not in mental illness? https://padlet.com/godsiffc/u6s3v2vkse5t/wish/305788758 2018-11-19 07:04:28 UTC https://padlet.com/godsiffc/u6s3v2vkse5t/wish/305788758
