I agree there, Kotch. It's been a crazy few weeks and I think everyone is busy getting ready for the end of the school year! #sunchat

Oh well, Paz. Looks like you can get Will to the playground early this morning before those winds kick in! We can put #sunchat on the back burner for a few weeks and try to revive again in the future.

The power plant down the road is still smoldering... Was definitely a scare I would like to not remember. It is ironic bc before we went on break I was teaching about fire breaks and the adverse effects wildfires have on biomes... Guess this is where I will pick up my conversation! #sunchat

Good morning #sunchat! Getting ready to return to the classroom for the last nine weeks of school here in Jersey! We just got over a scary wildfire that is still burning within our county. How is everyone this morning?

That's awesome!! Hoping with warmer weather on the way you can get out and take a walk to the bay πŸ’•πŸ’• #sunchat

We are the only couple on the dance floor here Kotch 🀣🀣 but that's okay!! I know a lot of people are on spring break but unfortunately we have another 4 days to go 😭😭. Let's put a pin in here and return after Easter? #sunchat

How is the knee feeling, Kotch? You get to upgrade your "ride" this week! I definitely probably should have told you to buy a grabber off of Amazon in case anything falls to the floor lol #sunchat

Morning #sunchat crew! Melissa here from the Jersey shore. Just got into soccer practice with my little guy. So now I have time to really deep dive into this conversation!

Oh no!! Time for me to collect my little soccer from practice and head on home. I will catch all of you next week! #sunchat

I think it's the class sizes that are making me hesitant 🀣 #sunchat

I would love this incredibly much. Many Ss I know in 6th aren't mature enough just yet to really drive their own education and understanding but my 8th would mostly thrive bc they take my class as an honors course that they "hopefully" enjoy 😊 #sunchat

It's great making this connections and seeing the eye opening moment that the concepts we all teach actually have value! We are about to talk about rockets in STEM which goes with their quadratics unit in Algebra πŸ‘πŸ» #sunchat

I do this in science with taking textbook materials and making it more manageable for my ELL and Wilson readers... I level the playing field but they need to reach the bar! #sunchat

I love this, when we were in "groups" I was able to do this but now I don't share the same students as many of my colleagues or they are on different topics due to pacing and student needs. #sunchat

Some Ss don't even care about "staying back" now and it's crazy to me... Some Ps don't give the support, or come in saying they support us in meeting but it's never followed through with. I get we are busy, but.. #sunchat

Yes, every single day. We run on a "Cardinal" and "Navy" day rotation to ensure I have each class for an even amount of time throughout the year. #sunchat

This is what I love to do with my science curriculum and try to adapt it to ELA and Math content areas to assist in connecting concepts across the board. #sunchat

I'll have to look into this for this summer for a good read. I love trying to apply new practices in the classroom when foundation has been established! #sunchat

"Grade levels" always never say right with me even as a kid. I think we can take those barriers away and be able to really deep dive into student achievement... #sunchat

We used to have "MAC" programs in our district that looped together 3rd and 4th grade classes. I assume they are the modern-day icr classrooms and they did really well! #suncht

Oooo I like this a lot. I got to figure out a better way next year to incorporate partner work but also maintaining academic integrity. I was a big watcher this year to see what works and what does not. #sunchat

I've been trying a lot of group work with my 8th graders but I assume I haven't gotten a grasp of it yet because many times I tell him to choose one person or if they want to be a "single Pringle" they can as well.. problem is those two people usually move closer to other groups.. #sunchat
