A2 Student portfolios give Ps a view into the classroom. They also allow Ss to go back and reflect on their own goals and growth #dojochat

TheBrudneyBunch Jan 18 @ 7:16 PM EST

A2: Portfolios show a variety of types of work. They can demonstrate student growth/progression over time. #dojochat

MrsFragassi Jan 18 @ 7:16 PM EST

A2 #dojochat giving students an opportunity to showcase their work helps to empower and encourage them in their education

Mr_H_Teacher Jan 18 @ 7:16 PM EST

A2: I keep working at being feedback driven-I'm writing reports now & I'm more interested in their portfolios than a list of marks #dojochat

A3: I want to incorporate portfolios for ELA. I find that only work samples I show Ps are worksheets... #dojochat

They see the work their child has posted to their story. #DojoChat

In reply to @JodyArthur

kjaspa89 Jan 18 @ 7:22 PM EST

A3 @smithstrws I think writing would be a huge area because Ss make a lot of growth each year! #dojochat

In reply to @smithstrws

DrDaveCobb Jan 18 @ 7:22 PM EST

Which allows them to be ongoing where learning is continuous #dojochat

Absolutely! #DojoChat

In reply to @kjaspa89

Mr_H_Teacher Jan 18 @ 7:23 PM EST

A3: Useful in all. Sharing art work or a math problem solving technique. Even snapshots from drama performanes or dances. #dojochat

leemaxfield29 Jan 18 @ 7:23 PM EST

A3: My first thought is the core classes, but I bet it can be used in all using pics and videos. Creativity may be needed #DojoChat

DrDaveCobb Jan 18 @ 7:24 PM EST

A3: ELA and Writing: For digital reflection especially as it relates to SEL. #dojochat

jenna_kleine Jan 18 @ 7:24 PM EST

What is the best grade/age to let the Ss have more accountability over their own stories on Dojo #dojochat

AlainaSchaefer2 Jan 18 @ 7:25 PM EST

A3 I have used them to showcase compositions in ELA and throughout the process of working on projects @StephDeLuca16 #dojochat

It should say that it’s either posted to the class or to the student #dojochat

Q4: If a teacher has never tried student stories, what advice would you give them to get started? #dojochat

Mrs_Tywater Jan 18 @ 7:31 PM EST

A3 I don't know of a subject it would NOT be a great thing! Any grade level too. I feel a portfolio shows TRUE mastery with DOK!! #dojochat

mrshaskell213 Jan 18 @ 7:31 PM EST

I have my Ss mostly post pictures. They can put a caption along with the picture #dojochat

I would just dive in. Model it for the kids and then give it a shot! If you make mistakes, you’re modeling a #growthmindset :) #dojochat

A5 When Ss post to stories they are publishing their own work for others to see @StephDeLuca16 #dojochat

A5: Makes it more engaging for the students. More creative and fun. Get to show-off their hard work and growth. #DojoChat

TheBrudneyBunch Jan 18 @ 7:44 PM EST

Silly question, but are Student Stories able to be seen by ALL students in the class? #dojochat

smithstrws - Moderator Jan 18 @ 7:44 PM EST

Nope. Only the ones tagged in the posts. #DojoChat

mrshaskell213 Jan 18 @ 7:45 PM EST

A5 Accountability is a life skill. Portfolios allow Ss to show independence and the ability to follow directions #dojochat

jenna_kleine Jan 18 @ 7:45 PM EST

If S work is shared, Ss take more pride in what they create. Same with me! If I share my work, I hold myself to higher standards #dojochat

TheBrudneyBunch Jan 18 @ 7:45 PM EST

Oh, I see. Thanks for clarifying! #dojochat

In reply to @smithstrws

smithstrws - Moderator Jan 18 @ 7:45 PM EST

Following directions?!?! What's that?! lol #DojoChat

In reply to @mrshaskell213

AlainaSchaefer2 Jan 18 @ 7:45 PM EST

Yes and will put forth more effort if they know it is being shared with others @StephDeLuca16 #dojochat

In reply to @kjaspa89, @StephDeLuca16

jenna_kleine Jan 18 @ 7:45 PM EST

Absolutely!! :) #dojochat

In reply to @leemaxfield29

TheBrudneyBunch Jan 18 @ 7:45 PM EST

You're telling me! My Ss collectively have a VERY hard time with this... #dojochat

In reply to @smithstrws, @mrshaskell213

smithstrws - Moderator Jan 18 @ 7:46 PM EST

Absolutely! If I'm sharing it, it's going to be EXTRA! lol #DojoChat

In reply to @jenna_kleine

mrshaskell213 Jan 18 @ 7:46 PM EST

I like this idea! We don't do many "group projects" in 2nd but a partner could respond to a Ss writing #dojochat

In reply to @smithstrws

smithstrws - Moderator Jan 18 @ 7:46 PM EST

Yours & mine, too! Ugh... #DojoChat

In reply to @jenna_kleine

MrsFragassi Jan 18 @ 7:47 PM EST

A5 #dojochat with the opportunity to share things on Sstory, students are working harder to create and make meaningful progress

leemaxfield29 Jan 18 @ 7:47 PM EST

Track effort and achievement is great for students to do. They can see that hard work pays off #dojochat

In reply to @kjaspa89

mrshaskell213 Jan 18 @ 7:47 PM EST

Haha! Right?!? But when directions involve technology it makes Ss so engaged! #dojochat

Q6: Once you give student stories a try, how do you ensure you’ll continue to use it and remain consistent? #dojochat

smithstrws - Moderator Jan 18 @ 7:48 PM EST

We just did the gratitude lesson from @ClassDojo & Ss tagged the ones they were grateful for :-) The Ps LOVED it! #DojoChat

In reply to @ClassDojo

jenna_kleine Jan 18 @ 7:48 PM EST

Such a great lesson!!! #dojochat

In reply to @smithstrws, @ClassDojo

smithstrws - Moderator Jan 18 @ 7:49 PM EST

A6 Set a regular time during the week for Ss to share. #DojoChat

TheBrudneyBunch Jan 18 @ 7:49 PM EST

A6: Block out a time in your schedule for it. Have a schedule for certain groups of Ss to use it throughout the week. #dojochat

smithstrws - Moderator Jan 18 @ 7:49 PM EST

It really was! #DojoChat

In reply to @jenna_kleine, @ClassDojo

mrshaskell213 Jan 18 @ 7:49 PM EST

Same! When I am presenting to adults I check over my work a million and one times. We ALL need accountability! #dojochat

In reply to @jenna_kleine

kjaspa89 Jan 18 @ 7:49 PM EST

A6: I think just seeing how rewarding using student stories is for the Ss and Ps would be motivation enough! #dojochat

kinderMegB Jan 18 @ 7:49 PM EST

A4 I am one of those teachers looking for ways to get started with kinders. I would love it hear suggestions! #dojochat

smithstrws - Moderator Jan 18 @ 7:50 PM EST

Yep. And sometimes you need a good friend to call you out on it! lol #DojoChat

Mr_H_Teacher Jan 18 @ 7:50 PM EST

Thanks all for #dojochat I have to run. It's a hockey night for me. I'll check back later to #ReadTheFeed Have a great night!

mrshaskell213 Jan 18 @ 7:50 PM EST

A6 I include it on the Ss center menu every week. It is now a routine and it requires no direction from me #dojochat

jenna_kleine Jan 18 @ 7:50 PM EST

Thanks for joining!! :) Enjoy the rest of your night! #dojochat

In reply to @Mr_H_Teacher

leemaxfield29 Jan 18 @ 7:50 PM EST

A6: Make it a priority. Tell the Ss when it will happen as you know, they will remind you if you forget #DojoChat

TheBrudneyBunch Jan 18 @ 7:51 PM EST

YES! Ss are great at reminding me. I tend to forget a lot. #dojochat

I hear you! In NC we had 3 snow days. This week, no school on Mon. & early release Fri. I need routine! #dojochat

In reply to @mrshaskell213, @smithstrws

kjaspa89 Jan 18 @ 7:54 PM EST

Does anyone use Dojo and Google Classroom/Google Tools? How do you manage both? #dojochat

TheBrudneyBunch Jan 18 @ 7:54 PM EST

I've gotta run. Great talking to everyone. Hope to make Student Stories a reality by end of year! #dojochat

smithstrws - Moderator Jan 18 @ 7:55 PM EST

Q7 How will you use ClassStory in the coming week? #DojoChat

jenna_kleine Jan 18 @ 7:55 PM EST

A6 - Incorporating it into a routine is a great way to become consistent. Naturally you’ll begin to get more creative w it! #dojochat

Sean4d Jan 18 @ 7:55 PM EST

A2: I feel there are more happening to help build discussion at home & visual evidence of a students learning. #dojochat

mrshaskell213 Jan 18 @ 7:55 PM EST

It is a menu of choices Ss have for indp. center time. They complete all the requirements in the order they wish :) #dojochat

In reply to @jenna_kleine

smithstrws - Moderator Jan 18 @ 7:55 PM EST

Haha! I meant Q7... I need some sleep.... #DojoChat

leemaxfield29 Jan 18 @ 7:56 PM EST
