Is there a

I think there are enough interested in the
#flipclass
chat being a thing again, but are the former leaders looking for others to take it on?

Not sure, I've popped in before when they were not available.

I would definitely like to restart the weekly

and have more a theme each week regarding flipped. I definitely liked this chat!

A1: I am looking to strengthen my class. Currently Ss have autonomy over what they learn, their seating, when the test, etc.

Many math teachers struggle with group/active time in class. Have you tried any activities?

Yes, activities and group work happen daily in my class. I take a back seat to their learning and let them take charge.

Q2 We all had great plans for the new school year. What did you plan and try that worked?

Q2: Have not tried this yet but... what about flip challenges? By that I mean transition pieces (not homework) to tide over Ss.

Are you employing mastery, or some mastery-like plan?

We implement standards based grading so students must meet or exceed standards before they move on.

Is SBG whole school or your class?

I have used SBG in spirit, but still needed # grades.

Perhaps a a kind of challenge task to tide Ss over from one class to the next. Building...connecting... a hook perhaps. WIP!

A flip challenge is a Work in Progress. Something I thought of last chat. Still thinking of a concrete example for the group.
