Talk to Ss & just LISTEN! I stand & listen. Sometimes Ss wonder what I'm doing, but I can hear them all learning & thinking. #ditchbook

A5: 1st tried Sketching, the Ss not feeling it. Prior to starting 2nd, I asked Qs about the 1st time. They realized they learned #DitchBook

A5. We use @padlet @KidblogDotOrg for exit tickets or simply reflect with each other- also use emoji for reflections! #DitchBook

A5: I am terrible at remembering a daily closure. When I do remember I like short and relevant...hashtags, emojis, haikus, etc... #ditchbook

A5: Another great way that @gcouros mentions is DEAR - Drop Everything and Reflect - Love it! Ss reflecting = powerful! #ditchbook
