Join the conversation to meet and learn from teachers all across the world using Buncee in their classroom. #Bunceechat will be held from 8:00 PM – 8:45 PM EST on the first Thursday of each month. Each chat, we’ll have a guest moderator open up a discussion with the community and share questions on the week’s topic.
Good evening, #BunceeChat! My name is Larry Zuares and I'm an instructional coach from NJ. Tonight we are throwing a "Buncee Holiday Bonanza". Please tell us a bit about yourself & share your favorite holiday song!
@techcoachz I am a current Education Relationship Manager here at @Buncee and former educator. My favorite Holiday song is "All I Want for Christmas is you" by Mariah Carey! #bunceechat
Mike D, Tech Integrator/TOSA from Western New York. Jumping into #BunceeChat Holiday Bonanza. A favorite holiday song is @BahamasMusic Christmas Must Be Tonight!
Q1: This holiday season, @Twitter has given us the gift of more characters. In #280characters or less, how has @Buncee helped your students share their gift of creativity with the world? Share your stories! #BunceeChat
A1: We've loved seeing students' creativity shine through Buncee! Creativity brings learning to life & prepares students for life beyond school walls https://t.co/gXaAO1Fkz8#BunceeChat#andIcreate
A1 @Buncee has helped our Ss share their 🎁 of creativity with the world through #BunceeBuddies. Creative ideas & discussions around solving problems locally and globally. Having an audience of peers near and far is powerful. #TeachSDGs#BunceeChat#andIcreate
A1 so many ways to share their ideas, #pbl and personal stories, lots of options for everyone to find what they need and create awesome Buncees! #Bunceechat
#BunceeChat Hi All! Just got on. I am a K-4 Librarian/Technology Teacher in South Jersey. I love the Trans Siberian Orchestra's Christmas CD! All of it. Love that it tells a story.
A1 my favorite thing @Buncee is the limitless creativity it provides for students at any age! Give them guidelines and let them go. I am always excited to see what they come up with! #Bunceechat
Q1: Simply telling my Ss that they may use @Buncee to #create unleashes their #creativity! Just the mention of the word #Buncee is all it takes with my Ss. I ❤️ seeing what is inspired whether it is simply their perspective of our Quote of the Day or writing pieces. #BunceeChat
Hey everyone! Sorry I'm jumping in late! None of my devices are charged! 😂Tethered to a cord! Amber here from central Florida. Happy to spread holiday cheer tonight with #BunceeChat.
Q2: The holidays are a time for people around the world to come together in peace and harmony. How have your students used @Buncee with other apps and/or websites? #BunceeChat
Whoa!!!!! I have a friend that was trying to fly out of Buffalo today .. hope she got out #Bunceechat You must have the #Holiday#LetItSnow vibe really happening!
#BunceeChat I was working on something else with my students the other day, and the early finishers wanted to know if they could create a buncee when they were done. Of course, I said "Yes"!
I like introducing teachers and students to Buncee and seeing them get excited. I taught it to a first grade class yesterday and the teacher was telling the rest of the teachers about it. Made me feel great! #Bunceechat
A2 Our classrooms have found joys in the harmonious pairing of @Buncee with @Seesaw. Student driven creativity + student driven portfolios + #digcit is a winning #edtech trifecta. #BunceeChat

A2 my go to app smash with @Buncee is @Seesaw! So simple for my young ones and parents love to see all of their creations almost instantly. #Bunceechat
#bunceechat Sorry, I am late. There has been an arctic dip in the jet stream. I would say that "Baby It's Cold Outside" fits my mood today! Lynn @mrsbradley2c
Q3: It's important to spread joy every day, but especially around the holidays. How can you use @Buncee to spread joy in your school and promote joyful holiday events? #BunceeChat
Such a great way to share with the parents who are connected to their child's portfolio. The comments that come back are always wonderful. It motivates us AND the students. #BunceeChat
A3b Using @Buncee to celebrate some classroom successes has spread joy, at least for me and those involved. Helped creatively capture our recent #skypeathon event and virtual map & mileage. #BunceeChathttps://t.co/yupk9q9xQS
I use Buncee to make library signs & for monthly meetings wth my admin. The principal always comments on Buncee's presentation & how much she likes it. I am blessed 👊🏻🤠 #Bunceechat
A3 use @Buncee for holiday newsletters that really WOW and engage readers- better yet let Ss create them by writing news articles for it win win #Bunceechat
A3 have Ss make holiday cards for teachers!! I love when students create things and bring them in for me just because! That’s when you know it is from their ❤️ #Bunceechat
A3 Create fun signs for the holidays, learn about other celebrations and create Buncees, make cards for colleagues :) also for personal dinner events #bunceechat
We are planning on having some #BunceeBuddiesElders cards created to spread some joy this holiday season to folks who might be away from family. I think it needs a better hashtag. Ideas?! #BunceeChat
A3: I use @Buncee weekly to spread #TootlingTuesday encouragement & share out random positive & cut holiday happenings. I think it'd also be a great way for Ss to reflect on character traits in @PosProject & share. #Bunceechat
A3: We have a LIFE Day Celebration culminating our Human Body Unit. Ss find a family recipe to make 2 healthy changes to & bring the dish to enjoy next Friday. I'm going to ask them to create a #Buncee Recipe Book with all of them this year to share with our families. #BunceeChat
I have used @cospaces_edu a ton and haven't brought in a @buncee yet. Totally stealing this idea. Two of the best tools I know for creativity and imagination. #stealedu#BunceeChat
Q4: The holidays can get rather busy and sometimes we forget about those things we truly love to do. How can @Buncee help us encourage our students to continue reading and writing, throughout the holiday season? #BunceeChat
A4 Apps ash with Epic, Pebble Go & Newsela to create digital responses, Booksnaps, Readers Theatre, Character Trading Cards and Blog Responses #Bunceechat
A4 forget Netflix binge during winter break I will be on a @Buncee binge!!! I will have the time to play and create which is my guilty pleasure!! The hours just slip on by!! #Bunceechat
My new fav is creating "I-Spy" Pages in @buncee to use for bellwork for my Ss when they first arrive in @nearpod. They circle the items they find. Great review of matieral we've covered too! #BunceeChat
#bunceechat A4 I am creating and managing a Reading Incentive Program from Dec 15 - Jan 5. Students in Grades 3-4 can write a summary or create a buncee about the books that they read. I know what they are going to choose!!!!
I can't wait to see some student- made holiday/winter stories. Here also are some ideas you could do with your little ones :) https://t.co/WczIzFgWmb#Bunceechat
A4 A @Buncee acrostic, #burdle or review (with audio/video features) related to a book will help boost the engagement and connection to the reading/writing. #BunceeChat
Q4: The holidays can get rather busy and sometimes we forget about those things we truly love to do. How can @Buncee help us encourage our students to continue reading and writing, throughout the holiday season? #BunceeChat
Q5: FINAL QUESTION: As we look back on the 2017 calendar year, how can @Buncee help us and our students set goals and monitor our progress into the new year? #BunceeChat
Can't take credit for that one! It's all @elaine_deja I think. Who doesn't love a Buncee + Wordle --> #Burdle?! Our Ss know them as this. Haha. #BunceeChat
A5: Keep an ongoing journal throughout the year. Students can include their goals in the Buncee, and continue to edit the Buncee as they work towards their goals. https://t.co/WhqwbA5lZQ#BunceeChat
Oh my goodness, Amber! I love, love, love this idea! Thanks for sharing it. I am not familiar with @nearpod. Will add it to my list to check out! #BunceeChat

A5 Ss could use @Buncee to create a #OneWord2018. Collecting these to a #BunceeBoard could help share, collect reactions/comments & serve as a reminder. Clip & stitch a class One Word book to share. Would make for a nice #globaled New Year's exchange. 🎉🌎 #BunceeChat

They haven't yet because the idea is less than a week old! Taking baby steps! Haha... I had lots of third graders that said they want to create a holiday I-Spy at home though. 😂❤️#bunceechat
A5 Well since I received my iPads, with the @Buncee app (score) on them, this week! My goal for 2018 is to unleash the power of @Buncee to my amazing students. The progress with take care of itself!! #Bunceechat
