Good question.

That’s a novel idea. It makes sense as handles/SM names are new ways of connecting today.

Illustrated MTSS pyramid with labels. Text reads: 'Tier Three intervention isn’t special education. It just means intensive intervention, & anyone might need it.'

Tier 3 is not special education. It’s just intensive intervention, and anyone might need it. #LeadInclusion #MTSS #UDL #EduSky #EdChat #TeacherTwitter

AI can help for sure. One thought: rather than seeing/treating formative assessment as a thing (eg. exit tickets), let’s keep in mind that how assessment info is used determines if it’s formative or summative. Not the tool itself.

On vacation but working behind the scenes!

Excited to soon open & welcome #PE teachers to a space 2 connect, learn, & grow, focusing on 1of the most underserved & unsupported parts of teaching PE: #assessment & #grading.

Making it make sense!

Stay tuned! #PhysEd #PEteachers #Excited

Yup. Apparently. It was such a great experience. I hope you enjoyed it as well

Was such a great time sharing ideas & strats on ways to make #SelfAssessment meaningful & impactful in #PhysEd at the @phecanada.bsky.social national conference is beautiful Niagara Falls. A packed room with amazing #PE teachers learning & sharing

Not at all. I say to kids in class that choosing to play dodgeball outside of school is one thing, and many people love it. However, as a mandated activity for all to do in PE class is another. Kids want to play it intramural-cool. In class for all to do-no thanks

Challenges w #motivation in #PhysEd class?

Kids disengaged or going thru motions?

Here’s 1 key piece to ⬆️motivation: purpose.

Too often we don’t clarify why something is learned &/or done. W/out this kids lose interest, form a negative view of #PE & question the relevance.

Yup. They are great tools indeed. Are you using them to evaluate both learning achievement with specific learning standards and then also to determine an overall grade, or one to determine an overall grade only?

2 phrases to help shift perspectives

2 responses I use 2 help shift “-“ &fixed mindsets in #PE class. I’ve even used on myself 2 get my mind focused on possibility.

Do u find Ss focus on what they can’t do or embody a fixed mindset?
Maybe ur own mind or POV is slipping to a fixed 1 or dreading something to do/teach in #PhysEd class.

Valid points, both of them. Now, they can unpack that and work it out (hopefully)

Great question. Are you searching for prof scales to evaluate particular learning standards or to form an overall grade for reporting purposes? They serve different purposes so just trying to clarify

That’s good to hear. Yes, the first step is essential and great you’re all focusing on that. Happy to share some ideas of prioritizing as well as ways to unpack. You can contact me at josh.ogilvie@outlook.com for more info (easier than on here)

Great to see/hear this. In addition to prioritizing the standards, have your teachers be shown ways to unpack them to clarify what they teach/students learn?
I have found that many miss that step and it can add lots of confusion to the teaching, learning, and assessment processes.

#Assessment & #grading in #PE often raise a lot of questions: What’s fair? What’s accurate? What reflects student learning?

A standards-based approach can provide clarity, but it’s not always clear how 2 make it work in #PhysEd.

What’s ur biggest ? or challenge for SBG in PE? Let’s talk about it!

Incoming bomb cyclone in the Pacific Northwest

Weather systems have fascinating names. Example: in the Pacific Northwest we are about to get a “weather bomb” or a #BombCyclone later today and tomorrow. Intense winds (100+km/hr), heavy rain and more. The satellite image shows how large and intense it is

Internal motivation chart showing how levels of control impact motivation levels

Student #motivation in PE continues 2b a challenge for many #PhysEd Ts. While no approach works 4 all we can b mindful of conditions we create in our classes &how they impact one’s intrinsic motivation.

🔑pt: the more controlling r classes the ⬇️motivated kids will feel & rely on external stimulus ☹️
