🔥Fire pit, ♨️grilling, 🐾doggo, and a little math 🧘‍♀️therapy thanks to @themathguru.bsky.social!

I just got it and am almost done. I'm already brainstorming how to partner these practices w digital tools to amplify Ss stories, capture word clouds, and create multimodal mathographies.

I 💗 this template by @principalproject.bsky.social to partner w AI for unpacking. It guides the prompts! I shared @magicschoolai.bsky.social Standards Unpacker to instructional coaches in our district to help them when working w Ts outside of their content. #AIinEdu

Loved popping by Geometry rooms! Sum of 3 offers collaboration, error analysis, and FUN. Can be in #GoogleSheets or on paper!

⭐Bonus? Seeing my old student, now teacher, using a review she experienced in my class. My heart grew 3 sizes & hair is whiter😂.

I'm so excited I got to reimagine "Press your Luck" w cookie jars using @genially for the Qs w prizes and #GoogleEDU Sheets for keeping count of "cookies". #EDUSky

Tiles are one of the best ways I could get Ss to understand how to complete the square! It really helped them build the algorithmic steps so that we could extend it to multivariables for conic sections or show why the quadratic formula works. #mtbos

I’m going to Ditch Summit, a FREE online conference for educators from Dec 16 to Jan 10. #DitchSummit

Not yet! Could you share how you've used it or why you prefer it? I'd love to add more sheet tricks!

Wow thanks for the info and new connections!

Yes, THIS!! ☝️☝️☝️ Answer check with conditional format, feedback and digital breakouts using IF formula, custom question dropdown with VLOOKUP. Activities, data, brainstorming, calendar planning, tracking - it's all there. #EduSkyChat #GoogleEDU

Have you tried the 🆕MagicSchoolAI survey generator yet? You can export directly to Forms! Check the pulse for a class, quick exit ticket, or feedback for a PD you give.

When you export to Sheets, it now gives you some nice options to analyze the data quickly. WIN! #EduSkyChat

A1: This one was easy! It's got to be #GoogleSlides. It's so much more than a presentation. It's easy to transform into a customized, collaborative task for Ss. I can't resist using Theme Builder to create custom responses for more accessible learning. Content shines, not the tech. #EduSkyChat

A3: I want to 🌊dive into @mirrortalkai.bsky.social & Snorkl more. I'd love to dig into more ways Ss can reflect and get feedback. Mistakes grow those connections & listening to peers can build more connections. I first heard of Snorkl from @ericcurts.bsky.social in his winter AI series. #EduSkyChat

I'm Lauren Hawkins from TX! 👋 Ive been a math teacher from ESL to AP, spent some time at a district position in instructional technology, and now I'm an instructional coach. I'm a little late to the party, but happy to catch up! #EduSkyChat

A teacher I know uses this for his self paced classroom in AP World to help students manage the flow of tasks and keep it organized for them. He said it absolutely changed his blended classroom. #EduSkyChat

It was so fun hearing him talk about the activity! Give him a follow @sosateaches.bsky.social #EduSkyChat

Let's gooooo!! Join the chat tomorrow!

I'm interested in how everyone shares updates, new features, & instructional tips with staff. We run a 📰monthly newsletter w #GoogleSlides on our staff site and post all in a #Wakelet. We try a printed "🚽Potty PD" too but it's a hit or miss.

❓What do you use? How often?

Brisk is wonderful! I love that the comments are drafted so I can edit before posting. The growth and strength summaries have been great for social studies with their document-based questions.

It takes time for Ts. There are a lot of emotions w AI. It helped when we did trainings & a book club to help address concerns & give a space to process. We started with showing how it can save them time, and a few of our Ts are ready for AI literacy w Ss. Lots of cautious optimism, which is nice.

WOW! 🤖🤝👤Our coaching team loves seeing how our Ts are supporting Ss in their AI literacy by allowing them to seek feedback on their writing using tools like MagicSchoolAI. After their conference, Ss were asked to share their reflections in a collaborative discussion. #AIinEdu #EduSky

Right?! I'm so excited. We started a book club with their book this year, and the timing is perfect.

I think so! Once you create the Form and export results to a spreadsheet, it should automatically create that formatting. Ts have really enjoyed it, especially if they're not too familiar with sheet functionalities.

Oh bummer, thanks for sharing! I was worried I was overlooking it.

Do you know how to choose a layout before inserting a slide from a template by chance? I miss my drop-down [V] I used to have. I use the create custom Themes, so Ss could pick from reloaded templates, but now they have to add a slide first and then change the layout.

One of my favorite visuals to show is stork population and births on the same graph. When they see the positive association, I told students, "Well that settles it! Storks being the babies." 😂

I loved asking Ss to find another example or create their own and share on a discussion board.
