A1: BBQ and relaxing. Oh and letting Jacob bang on everything with his rattle making noise. Oh and trying to keep him from climbing the stairs. #IDedchat
A2 Family reunion on my mom's side in Denver in July. Can't wait to see everyone. Plus get lots of hiking and outdoor activities with family. #IDedchat
Love it!! #IDedchat. We honor veterans at our cemetery-bothmy father and grandfather (and husband) are all veterans. My dad was stationed at Nellis just before he retired!
A3 try to catch up on all the things I have not been able to do; sleep, exercise... take care of myself more. I’m getting a massage on the last day of school 👍 #selfcare#IDedchat
A3: I love to watch movies, but I especially love when to read “junk food” books. I escape from everything when I am engrossed in a good mystery or suspense novel! #IDedchat
A4: Finish writing Chapter 4 and 5 of my dissertation, 5 more weeks of class for the semester, and read books to help me grow. Oh and attend an AP conference and rework 3 curriculums. #IDedchat#notenoughtimethissummer
R4: I’m working a lot with our summer school. Will be learning the back door of @CanvasLMS and also learning about @MarzanoResearch strategies for engagement in the classroom. #IDedchat
A4: I am involved in planning and presentingat two events- a conference at our local community college, CSI called P20... and I am the co planner of Edcamp Idaho. #IDedchat
A4 stay active reading, working on masters in #education administration, connect with educators online & at conferences, spend time reflecting on lessons & planning new ones #IDedchat
Sounds like you will be busy! #teachers don’t actually “have summer off” I’m putting together calendar of conferences & trainings now Busy Busy #IDedchat
Thanks! It's been a whirlwind 2 years of it. I'm just glad the writing portion is part of the actual program and not have to write it AFTER classes are finished and with no support. Here I have tons of support during the process. #IDEdchat
R5: I shared earlier today that I write all my students letters. It celebrates their successes, offers advice for the future, and hopefully motivates all to do better. Here they are. #IDedchat
A5: We still have next week, but my last pd was about asking burning questions. This generated so much to talk about. I am thinking my last pd will invole a bucket of summer goodies and notes with accomplishments. #IDedchat
A5 we had a cumulative project as part of a @EntrepreneurASU#verizon#innovative#designthinking project. We did a class gallery walk prior to a city wide showcase of four schools. I enjoyed it more than the students I think, not all of them recognized their growth #IDedchat
R5: I shared earlier today that I write all my students letters. It celebrates their successes, offers advice for the future, and hopefully motivates all to do better. Here they are. #IDedchat
Thanks, I used to sign every one of my students report cards & do the same thing every 1/4. It was about 450 report cards. I took this to a different level with my students when I went back to teaching. Some kids read it & throw it away, some hang on their wall. #IDedchat.
I am so glad I was able to make it this evening. Thanks for joining us @Snehalstocks and @MaggieJCox tonight. You all help make me a better teacher and I truly appreciate all of you. Have a fantastic week! #IDedchat
