  Q3: What can be done in the last month to encourage students to keep learning through summer (to avoid summer slide)? #hacklearning

GerardDawson3 - Moderator May 1 @ 8:58 AM EDT

#HackLearning Make learning exciting at the end of the year. Don't just try to "get to June." Students deserve a full year of your best.

FarleyJeffrey May 1 @ 8:58 AM EDT

There is a definitive end to our time learning together as a community. There is no end to learning. #hacklearning https://t.co/sTHDirW8Gf

schug_dennis May 1 @ 8:56 AM EDT

@ByrneLearning It may be semantics, but does the message to "finish strong" insinuate a definitive start and stop to learning? #HackLearning

TedHiff May 1 @ 8:58 AM EDT

A3. Offer summer programs or initiatives for them. We'll have an Apps Camp again this summer. #hacklearning

A1: Don't even start cleaning and packing up your room until the last bell has rung and the hallways are absent of little feet #HackLearning

JohannaAHiner May 1 @ 8:59 AM EDT

My best takeaway is for the idea of keeping up with the students after the year by having them be involved in blogs and such. #hacklearning

Great idea #hacklearning https://t.co/MvoYG0hk2s

#HackLearning takeaway : Calendars & bells=fake constraints. Opportunities to learn exist any season, any time.

JimSarto May 1 @ 8:59 AM EDT

@realistech #hacklearning .... I agree.... Blogs, on line summer "packets"... Interactive chats......

lmstump May 1 @ 9:00 AM EDT
