Are there any writing methods that are super duper for a specific grade level? #RuralEdChat

j6panus Apr 25 @ 8:45 PM EDT

#RuralEdChat absolutely! Illustrates the definition of technology.. Ss often only think of digital tech.

In reply to @TG_Neil, @iCoachElm

jnkarpacs Apr 25 @ 8:46 PM EDT

ToonTastic! for elem students. #RuralEdChat

robinhosemann - Moderator Apr 25 @ 8:46 PM EDT

TG_Neil - Moderator Apr 25 @ 8:47 PM EDT

A1: I'm not a writing teacher, but when I write, one of my favorite methods is webbing to connect ideas. #RuralEdChat

#RuralEdChat Julie from NH lurking tonight. Teach at K-8 school with >400 Ss. Live in town with >90 Ss K-8.

j6panus Apr 25 @ 8:49 PM EDT

#RuralEdChat A1: mapping out and diagram ideas for writing. (For me) Ss writing is usually expl of process for design - so follow EDP

** Q2 ** What are your favorite tools for reading or teaching reading? #RuralEdChat

TG_Neil - Moderator Apr 25 @ 8:51 PM EDT

A2: I know BOOKS are a great tool. Beyond that what do you use? #RuralEdChat

robinhosemann - Moderator Apr 25 @ 8:52 PM EDT

A2 great books, of course! Followed by sticky notes for flagging powerful passages and comfortable seating! :) #ruraledchat

j6panus Apr 25 @ 8:52 PM EDT

#RuralEdChat A2: not really relevant. If need to support reading in STEM, small groups or aides usually help. But try to make it interesting
