#OHEdChat was started by an ad hoc group of Ohio educators and other interested people. For information and updates about the chat, visit https://ohedchat.wordpress.com/
A1: Robin-LRC TA-IL, By staying positive...whats the other option? My Mantra āLearn, Adapt & Adjustā helps me Fail Forward but still have #Grit & a #growthmindset#ohedchat
A1 support T trying different things in their classroom - taking risks, ask to watch. Maybe it will be phenomenal, maybe not, but let's keep trying -- fun for T, S, and me too! Makes class exciting and #kidsdeserveit#ohedchat
A2 Just today I watched an awesome tweet of a photosynthesis Readers Theater in @VBrockmeier class. Or, seeing @MHOLT7872 singing/rapping about solving equations with students and more. May also be a T going out on a limb that's new to them even if not new to others #ohedchat
Really wanting to involve students in this with a student data team based off building office referrals. This is one of my biggest #pbis goals at the start of the second semester #ohedchat
A2: @foxchase308 LMS & Art teacher are creating a Community Mural inviting parents to participate. āMaybe Something Beautifulā is inspiration. #ohedchat#communitymural

I think that my hang ups and concerns about "getting it right" will probably be just that -- my hang ups and concerns. My guess is that kids will identify the same problem areas that Staff will, however, they'll prob provide diff ideas for solving the problems #ohedchat
#ohedchat A3 We have moved to bringing in primary source speakers in our SS classes. It had engaged our Ss in learning. We continue to build are list. Started in our 1980s class. Here are some of our speakers.
A3 Organizing teacher choice PD sessions for 4 MS in our district. Ask for their passions to teach about and what they want to learn. End up with over 30 choice sessions and 37 presenters. Just like experts in our #isdms schools we also have experts in our classrooms #ohedchat
#OhEdChat A3 Just the other day we had Mr Philo Barnhart and Mr Charles Moisant in school. Mr Barnhart is the creator of Ariel from The Little Mermaid and other films. Great time for our Ss!
A4 I've given a couple teacher examples (and only a couple) that I see regularly at our school. However, I think the how it happens, most frequently, comes from TRUE collaboration -- working with another to develop and build lessons or learning experiences for our S #ohedchat
I really enjoy the days when we have a Social Media Intern who does #kidtweet from the school twitter account. Like what they see as things worth sharing about their day #ohedchat
#ohedchat A5. PD has to be useful. Love @jmattmiller PDs! Engaging and is hands on. Participants are working on examples to learn Google Apps and other ideas.
A5 Some people are more comfortable trying something new after hearing from their colleagues about their successes with something new. PD can provide a wonderful opportunity for Ts to share their innovative stories and to inspire others #ohedchat
I've created a google form for interested students to complete -- basically how will they work to spread the positive story of our school. Well received by all who have been involved #ohedchat
We are just getting ready to wrap up our first book study twitter chat. Completely voluntary and we've had over 30 chatters each night and it has been INCREDIBLE! Can't wait for our next one to start in a few weeks #TeacherMyth#growingpanthers#ohedchat
#OhEdChat In 2000, created our 1980s course. Technology changed my teaching forever. Here is our presentation over the class. Has laid the groundwork for other SS classes.

Staff voted and after a close race it was #KidsDeserveIt that came out ahead for the first chat of the year -- a good positive way for us to dig into the journey of this year! #ohedchat
