Who are you, what do you do, and what song best describes the start to your school year thus far? #EdChatME https://t.co/6NMrFhEET6

WickedDecent Sep 19 @ 8:31 PM EDT

@MrsLuppino great to have you here! #edchatme how goes the things?

MsRedmanEnglish - Moderator Sep 19 @ 8:32 PM EDT

Hi #edchatme! ELA & Media Team Redman here. Tough song question, @WickedDecent - can’t find the right jam… but it would be a positive one!

Good evening, #EdChatME! Matt- Director of C-I-A fr/ @AOS94ME. Song: Pump Up the Volume by M.A.A.R.S. (get it, @andrewtwallace?)

@MsMeservey Of all of the places where I thought I’d get Rick-Rolled, #edchatme was not one of them. #wellplayed

5th Grade, Poland... Sorry not sure of a song, but it has me thinking! #EdChatME

MsMeservey Sep 19 @ 8:35 PM EDT

A1: I think of my SS curriculum with culture and creating those relationships. #EdChatME

MsRedmanEnglish - Moderator Sep 19 @ 8:35 PM EDT

A1: Teaching power of relationships is easy w/ELA. Lit can be used as a jump-off for dialogue about all kinds of human connections #edchatme

T_HEB Sep 19 @ 8:35 PM EDT

Hello #edchatme, 4th & 5th grade teacher as well as university adjunct. T the power of Twitter at the moment.

amybeier2010 Sep 19 @ 8:36 PM EDT

#edchatme Hi there, Amy, 7/8th grade ss, song to describe the start of the year? So many...

MrsLuppino Sep 19 @ 8:36 PM EDT

A1: Language arts is a great place to start with novel studies and writing assignments targeted on relationships #edchatme

jamiller12290 Sep 19 @ 8:36 PM EDT

A1: We incorporate social skills into our morning meeting everyday. It helps build relationships and team building #EdChatME

FrazierTeacher Sep 19 @ 8:36 PM EDT

#edchatME teaching relationships is possible everywhere. Also connections between subjects..

@WickedDecent @jbailey8 @TLMImprov I also have this crazy idea to do improv com w/my FLL teams and would love to pick your brain #edchatme

teachmehaah Sep 19 @ 8:38 PM EDT

#edchatme #noob https://t.co/SsbsDvuZ0I

teachmehaah Sep 19 @ 8:37 PM EDT

A1: writing is putting our thoughts, labeled, "out here" for consumption. English is all about self-expression - the good, bad, and ugly.

ehfowler7 Sep 19 @ 8:38 PM EDT

#edchatme Elizabeth--elementary school principal now, fifth grade teacher forever. start of year song=the wheels on the bus go round&round

@T_HEB Hey, Tim! Hope the start of your year is going well! Look forward to #pstmaine this year! #edchatme

Sean_Malone Sep 19 @ 8:38 PM EDT

A1: Technology brings everyone a little closer in demonstrating positive student impact in the classroom. #EdChatME

T_HEB Sep 19 @ 8:38 PM EDT

A1 Mentor texts in writing not only build craft content but help enhance social curriculum. #edchatme @responsiveclass

DrewetteCard - Moderator Sep 19 @ 8:38 PM EDT

A1) I think this is one of the strengths of the social studies as a content area. The content itself is the study of relationships #edchatme

FrazierTeacher Sep 19 @ 8:38 PM EDT

Song for the beginning of the year...Summertime 🎶from Porgy and Bess #edchatME

WickedDecent Sep 19 @ 8:39 PM EDT

A1 I've been thinking that chemistry lends itself well to discussing bonds, biology symbiosis, parastism, commensalism etc #edchatme

T_HEB Sep 19 @ 8:39 PM EDT

Hope all is well with you @MsRedmanEnglish. I need to get on #PSTMaine. Intro Twitter lesson today. How about 2 weeks from now? #EdChatME

WickedDecent Sep 19 @ 8:39 PM EDT

@teachmehaah Hello there Heather! #edchatme

MsRedmanEnglish - Moderator Sep 19 @ 8:40 PM EDT

.@Sean_Malone Intriguing - what tech tools do you recommend for building collaboration & positive Ss impact? I love @peardeck #edchatme

WickedDecent Sep 19 @ 8:40 PM EDT

@DrewetteCard One could argue that all content is the study of relationships between disparate elements #edchatme

ehfowler7 Sep 19 @ 8:40 PM EDT

A1 I'd flip the question--Where Does Academic Curriculum fit into Teaching Relationships, Collaboration, and Citizenship? #edchatme

RartHistory Sep 19 @ 8:40 PM EDT

A1: In art history relationship cross time and place. Artists are always in dialog w/each other since the first cave paintings #EdChatME

jessicawrd3 Sep 19 @ 8:41 PM EDT

@WickedDecent as a former bio teacher, love the connections to real world relationships...#EdChatME

MsRedmanEnglish - Moderator Sep 19 @ 8:41 PM EDT

.@T_HEB I would gladly help out - though @MisterCMaine & I do not rejoin the #pstmaine squad until this spring w/ #edu300usm #edchatme

DrewetteCard - Moderator Sep 19 @ 8:41 PM EDT

@WickedDecent Sure. But SS is the focused study of human & interpersonal relationships, & their effectiveness/lack thereof. #edchatme

FrazierTeacher Sep 19 @ 8:41 PM EDT

We talked about lunch groups with my sixth graders when discussing commutative, Associative, and Distributive properties in Math #edchatME

T_HEB Sep 19 @ 8:42 PM EDT

I will get the gang back together. You can still play along even with out university Ss. #edchatme #PSTMaine @MsRedmanEnglish @MisterCMaine

Sean_Malone Sep 19 @ 8:42 PM EDT

@MsRedmanEnglish @PearDeck I love peardeck, but I love the old classic media of student videos, reflections, and dialogue #EdChatME

MsRedmanEnglish - Moderator Sep 19 @ 8:42 PM EDT

YES! Love this flip of the question! Relationships first, content & curriculum second! #edchatme https://t.co/F4fxn1uBLG

ehfowler7 Sep 19 @ 8:40 PM EDT

A1 I'd flip the question--Where Does Academic Curriculum fit into Teaching Relationships, Collaboration, and Citizenship? #edchatme

eringobragh29 Sep 19 @ 8:42 PM EDT

@DrewetteCard @WickedDecent I mean, that's contained within SS, yeah. But SS is also contained within everything else... #EdChatME

teachmehaah Sep 19 @ 8:42 PM EDT

#edchatme #tooverbose #noobx2 https://t.co/yxxwbVOQcH

teachmehaah Sep 19 @ 8:41 PM EDT

A1: And just think of the chemistry-Crucible-reaction possibilities. As well as the possibilities of discussing healthy/unhealthy relations.

GeoffCyr Sep 19 @ 8:43 PM EDT

@MsRedmanEnglish @Sean_Malone Last year we had 4gr Ss design edu. board games for Ks using Bee-Bots. #edchatme

WickedDecent Sep 19 @ 8:43 PM EDT

Q2: What challenges do we face when teaching students how to collaborate well? How might we overcome them? #EdChatME https://t.co/do4q183La6

jamiller12290 Sep 19 @ 8:43 PM EDT

@MsRedmanEnglish I agree with you! This is so important especially in the younger grades! #EdChatME

GeoffCyr Sep 19 @ 8:43 PM EDT

@MsRedmanEnglish @Sean_Malone Ss had to think like designers and emp. w/younger Ss #edchatme

aoakes4 Sep 19 @ 8:43 PM EDT

@WickedDecent @DrewetteCard @MsRedmanEnglish Just a quick hello, you 3. Saw #edchatme happening & wanted to butt in. :) Chat on, peeps!

DrewetteCard - Moderator Sep 19 @ 8:43 PM EDT

@eringobragh29 @WickedDecent Of course. That’s what makes it the most versatile and integrateable content area. #edchatme

MsMeservey Sep 19 @ 8:44 PM EDT

A2: I think of the online problems. Privacy, Cyber bullying, ect. Modeling is important and finding the right tools. #EdChatME

MsRedmanEnglish - Moderator Sep 19 @ 8:44 PM EDT

@Sean_Malone I assume it is the dialogue piece that come in clutch for building collaboration? Student peer review & feedback? #edchatme

eringobragh29 Sep 19 @ 8:44 PM EDT

A2: I find gr9 Ss have a hard time imagining someone else's reality. Practice makes perfect, think about audience. #EdChatME #designthinking

jbailey8 Sep 19 @ 8:44 PM EDT

Sorry I'm late. Jeff Bailey Mountain Valley High School Technology Teacher. Song: Carry on by FUN! #edchatME

teachmehaah Sep 19 @ 8:45 PM EDT

A2: Same challenge we're facing on the national pol'l stage: sound byte relationships are safe. No vulnerability needed. #EdChatME

andrewtwallace Sep 19 @ 8:45 PM EDT

A2: One of the challenges is perhaps WE don't know how to collaborate well. #edchatme

GeoffCyr Sep 19 @ 8:45 PM EDT

A2: Honestly, my biggest challenge is over-involving myself in their collaboration. So hard to let go sometimes! #edchatme

MsRedmanEnglish - Moderator Sep 19 @ 8:45 PM EDT

A2: Know your students. Identify leaders; deploy strategies to empower reluctant participants. Build upon individual strengths. #edchatme

MsMeservey Sep 19 @ 8:45 PM EDT

@jbailey8 Great song choice! #EdChatME

MsRedmanEnglish - Moderator Sep 19 @ 8:45 PM EDT

@jbailey8 Just glad to see you joining us at #edchatme

eringobragh29 Sep 19 @ 8:45 PM EDT

@DrewetteCard @WickedDecent But where would all your SS knowledge be without ELA to make it all purty and articulate and such? #edchatme

MrsLuppino Sep 19 @ 8:45 PM EDT

A2: Doesn’t come naturally; important to model and reflect as a group what strategies and behaviors worked and didn’t work #edchatme

DrewetteCard - Moderator Sep 19 @ 8:45 PM EDT

A2) Sometimes we “swoop in” too soon and take over, trying to help, instead of promoting productive struggle in learning. #edchatme

FrazierTeacher Sep 19 @ 8:45 PM EDT

A2) some Ss have never had to share the stage with anyone else. #edchatme

eringobragh29 Sep 19 @ 8:45 PM EDT

Story. Of. My. Life. #edchatme https://t.co/ocbDOkL0uc

A2: Honestly, my biggest challenge is over-involving myself in their collaboration. So hard to let go sometimes! #edchatme

MsRedmanEnglish - Moderator Sep 19 @ 8:46 PM EDT

@andrewtwallace you pre-empt one of my future responses, sir. If WE can do it, we can better model for students. Obviously. #edchatme

jbailey8 Sep 19 @ 8:46 PM EDT

@MsMeservey Thanks! #edchatME

jamiller12290 Sep 19 @ 8:46 PM EDT

In 1st grade students watch the older students and pick up on their actions. This can be a big problem. with collaboration. #EdChatME

andrewtwallace Sep 19 @ 8:46 PM EDT

A2: Another challenge is that it can be hard to measure collaboration (not that everything needs to be assessed... but) #edchatme

DrewetteCard - Moderator Sep 19 @ 8:46 PM EDT

@eringobragh29 @WickedDecent Purty is in the eye of the beholder. #justthefactsmaam #edchatme

jessicawrd3 Sep 19 @ 8:46 PM EDT

A2: Seeing other points of view and ownership/sharing of the work. #EdChatME

MsMeservey Sep 19 @ 8:46 PM EDT

@jamiller12290 I often have to tell my 6th graders to look at how the 4th graders are walking into the hallway...#edchatme

jbailey8 Sep 19 @ 8:47 PM EDT

A1: In computer science we will discuss how relationships are different on the net and how they can grow strong bonds. Like here.. #edchatME

teachmehaah Sep 19 @ 8:47 PM EDT

Nigh-nigh, #EdchatME. Chamomile calls. I'll hashtag-research tomorrow. :)

DrewetteCard - Moderator Sep 19 @ 8:47 PM EDT

@andrewtwallace But if the goal is clear and everyone needs to meet the goal, why is measuring collaboration challenging? #edchatme

WickedDecent Sep 19 @ 8:47 PM EDT

@jessicawrd3 so much of bio has immediate analogical & metaphorical relationships to the social world #edchatme

aeduchesne Sep 19 @ 8:47 PM EDT

Good listeners are both rare and valued in our culture. Teach and model how to be a great listener. #EdChatME

RartHistory Sep 19 @ 8:48 PM EDT

A2: helping students listen to each other; break down tasks #EdChatME

GeoffCyr Sep 19 @ 8:48 PM EDT

@andrewtwallace And to take time to address issues directly w/Ss. So much to do, makes it too easy to give up w/going gets tough #edchatme

MsRedmanEnglish - Moderator Sep 19 @ 8:48 PM EDT

@DrewetteCard I’m all about letting the productive struggle happen… I learn much by observing Ss working through it together #edchatme

ehfowler7 Sep 19 @ 8:48 PM EDT

A2:growth mindset chatter: we don't always recognize that we all have different mindsets--and they can be fixed at times #edchatme

MrsLuppino Sep 19 @ 8:49 PM EDT

@aeduchesne So true!! Something we talk about daily in 5th grade. #edchatme

WickedDecent Sep 19 @ 8:49 PM EDT

@andrewtwallace I would argue that it's only hard to measure by strictly objective means; those involved know & it can be observed #edchatme

GeoffCyr Sep 19 @ 8:50 PM EDT

@jessicawrd3 Oh, absolutely, and instant gratification-nature of tech doesn’t make that any easier either #edchatme

jessicawrd3 Sep 19 @ 8:50 PM EDT

@MsRedmanEnglish The learning can come from reflection after the struggle, taking the time to reflect is important #EdChatME

eringobragh29 Sep 19 @ 8:50 PM EDT

@WickedDecent @jessicawrd3 Yaassss! #bioethics #myfavorite #edchatme

Good listeners are both rare and valued in our culture. Teach and model how to be a great listener. #EdChatME

DrewetteCard - Moderator Sep 19 @ 8:50 PM EDT

A2) To what extent to the teachers themselves know how to collaborate well? How might that impact teaching students how to do it? #edchatme

briley8557 Sep 19 @ 8:51 PM EDT

#edchatme sorry I'm late... again! A2. Adults need to model collaboration and sometimes we don't!

jamiller12290 Sep 19 @ 8:51 PM EDT

When we go over rules we practice the correct way and the incorrect way to do it. It seems to stick better this way! #EdChatME

MsMeservey Sep 19 @ 8:51 PM EDT

@DrewetteCard And collaboration for one is different for another. #EdChatME

jbailey8 Sep 19 @ 8:51 PM EDT

@FrazierTeacher Love this! Great way to make math social! #edchatME

#edchatme sorry I'm late... again! A2. Adults need to model collaboration and sometimes we don't!

GeoffCyr Sep 19 @ 8:51 PM EDT

@jessicawrd3 At the same time, Ss have to want to learn if they’re going to exp. the rewards that come from struggle. #edchatme

WickedDecent Sep 19 @ 8:52 PM EDT

Q3: How might we design authentic collaborative experiences in the service of content knowledge? #EdChatME https://t.co/9XuBLQpxOq

@WickedDecent @andrewtwallace I think if it can be observed, it can be assessed. #rubricsfordays #pbe #edchatme

MsRedmanEnglish - Moderator Sep 19 @ 8:53 PM EDT

@ehfowler7 agreed. Growth mindset isn’t always permanent. Though isn’t acceptance of that fluidity inherently “growth mindset-y”? #edchatme

jbailey8 Sep 19 @ 8:53 PM EDT

A2: In collaboration, when to be heard and when to listen, when to lead and when to follow. Must show and take all roles. #edchatME

MsMeservey Sep 19 @ 8:53 PM EDT

A3: I hope that by participating in the GRA, my ss will get some authentic collaboration through blogging and twitter chat. #EdChatME

jessicawrd3 Sep 19 @ 8:53 PM EDT

@GeoffCyr The struggle and reflection can take time in a busy classroom that sometimes doesn't happen....#EdChatME

DrewetteCard - Moderator Sep 19 @ 8:53 PM EDT

@eringobragh29 @WickedDecent @andrewtwallace Yes! As long as there’s a goal, a scale, & transparency. #edchatme https://t.co/8K9JBwvGZW

ehfowler7 Sep 19 @ 8:54 PM EDT

@MsRedmanEnglish certainly as is to recognize that some situations in which collaboration is goal may bring out our fixed mindset #edchatme

MsRedmanEnglish - Moderator Sep 19 @ 8:55 PM EDT

A3: Learning much about authentic collab. w/media team! Identifying roles / how to best support each other for awesome end result #edchatme

jbailey8 Sep 19 @ 8:55 PM EDT

@GeoffCyr I know how you feel. I'm a helper by nature. But I must always try to avoid the "swoop" in. Productive struggle is good #edchatME

eringobragh29 Sep 19 @ 8:55 PM EDT

A3: Identify outcomes first. Is the focus equally split between content and collaboration? Or is there a dominant goal? #edchatme

MsMeservey Sep 19 @ 8:56 PM EDT

@eringobragh29 Interesting question. Defiantly one I should start thinking about. #EdChatME

@WickedDecent Younger Ss are definitely motivated to be “leaders.” We’ve been working on helping them come up with a healthier def #edchatme

@ehfowler7 from a teacher’s perspective? #edchatme

eringobragh29 Sep 19 @ 8:58 PM EDT

WickedDecent Sep 19 @ 8:59 PM EDT

@andrewtwallace Right? After all the data talk at #BIF2016, keen on exploring ways to better collect/sort/use qualitative measures #edchatme

ehfowler7 Sep 19 @ 8:59 PM EDT

@eringobragh29 Yes! and having students identify the problems they want to solve using the content they know/need to learn #EdChatME

A3 After being at #dtfieldguide I would now like to bring community members into classroom to give feedback for future iterations #edchatme

A3: I think a solid service learning project with a local outcome they find relevant. #edchatme

eringobragh29 Sep 19 @ 9:00 PM EDT

@andrewtwallace @DrewetteCard @WickedDecent It's hard when you're looking at it as "yet another thing to do." Easier if priority. #EdChatME

MsMeservey Sep 19 @ 9:00 PM EDT

@amybeier2010 I would love to do something like that with my ss. It is just finding the time. :/ #EdChatME

Happened today. Watched Ss struggle & collab to visibly solve a series of complex math problems #edchatme https://t.co/ttye3bWCRb

WickedDecent Sep 19 @ 9:01 PM EDT

Q4: Which elements of good citizenship lend themselves to content area learning? #EdChatME https://t.co/iRZw3AbaEz

eringobragh29 Sep 19 @ 9:01 PM EDT

@ehfowler7 And following through to make an actual change or difference that they can see and feel! #servicelearning #edchatme

GeoffCyr Sep 19 @ 9:09 PM EDT

@eringobragh29 Yes! That’s a hard culture to build in the classroom though, especially if Ss don’t feel safe in doing so #edchatme

eringobragh29 Sep 19 @ 9:15 PM EDT

A5: Collab is awesome, but it needs to be PURPOSEFUL. Should allow it to fit naturally into curric where it makes sense. #edchatme

MsRedmanEnglish - Moderator Sep 19 @ 9:15 PM EDT

A5: If teachers collaborate & build cross-curricular relationships; the same for students is a logical outcome - w/solid planning #edchatme

Something I love about Google Classroom is adding more than one T to a class. Makes it possible to do 1 assignment for 1+ classes. #edchatme
