@casehighprinc welcome, Brian! Great to have you with us tonight! #reflectiveteacher

mmorriswrite Mar 8 @ 7:06 PM EST

@casehighprinc Hi Brian, welcome. Glad to see you can join us tonight! #reflectiveteacher

MsJWhiting Mar 8 @ 7:07 PM EST

A1: I tell my students when prepping for exams, eat a different snack when reviewing each unit: taste memory! #reflectiveteacher

suepetersen17 Mar 8 @ 7:07 PM EST

A1 to reach multi learning styles and to make learning fun #reflectiveteacher

nironside13 Mar 8 @ 7:07 PM EST

@mashupmath welcome, Anthony! Great to have you joining in this evening #reflectiveteacher

mmorriswrite Mar 8 @ 7:08 PM EST

@MsJWhiting I had a neighbor who ate chocolate when she studied and then a piece right before exams. Interesting! #reflectiveteacher

mashupmath Mar 8 @ 7:08 PM EST

A1: Catering to all learning styles promotes student choice and makes learning accessible to all. #reflectiveteacher

MsJWhiting Mar 8 @ 7:08 PM EST

A1: Aren't deja vu moments sense-induced... imagine S's remembering learning when they smell something familiar #reflectiveteacher

nironside13 Mar 8 @ 7:08 PM EST

Love that you hit on the idea of fun right away! #multisensory teaching IS engaging! #reflectiveteacher https://t.co/tWvdNolSGh

nironside13 Mar 8 @ 7:09 PM EST

@MsJWhiting brillant! Do they like it? Does it work? #reflectiveteacher

mmorriswrite Mar 8 @ 7:09 PM EST

@suepetersen17 Recognizing that our Ss all learn differently is so important. #reflectiveteacher

MsJWhiting Mar 8 @ 7:09 PM EST

When S's struggle writing imagery, trying to activate each sense in a scene helps! #reflectiveteacher

MsJWhiting Mar 8 @ 7:10 PM EST

@nironside13 Absolutely! I also tell them to study each unit in a different room of their house: place memory #reflectiveteacher

nironside13 Mar 8 @ 7:10 PM EST

@mashupmath access & choice are so important - they give Ss insight into their own passions, styles & needs #reflectiveteacher

mmorriswrite Mar 8 @ 7:11 PM EST

@mashupmath Great point. Addressing multiple senses in our lessons can provide Ss with choice. #reflectiveteacher #stuchoice

MsJWhiting Mar 8 @ 7:11 PM EST

Doesn't good advice usually involve your senses: like the smell of baking bread makes a potential buyer like your house? #reflectiveteacher

mmorriswrite Mar 8 @ 7:12 PM EST

This is a great strategy...works every time! #reflectiveteacher #engchat https://t.co/POUHpdVM0q

MsJWhiting Mar 8 @ 7:09 PM EST

mashupmath Mar 8 @ 7:13 PM EST

@mmorriswrite Thanks! :) #reflectiveteacher

MsJWhiting Mar 8 @ 7:13 PM EST

@nironside13 @mashupmath Agreed: another means of differentiating as well #reflectiveteacher

nironside13 Mar 8 @ 7:14 PM EST

A1: Addressing diff Ss needs sends message that Ts r on the side of Ss & willing to allow Ss to learn as they learn best #reflectiveteacher

mmorriswrite Mar 8 @ 7:14 PM EST

Great ideas flowing already for tonight's #reflectiveteacher chat! Q2 coming up soon...

nironside13 Mar 8 @ 7:15 PM EST

@jdepler2 welcome, Jackie! Great to have you with us tonight! #reflectiveteacher

MsJWhiting Mar 8 @ 7:15 PM EST

Get ready: Questions 2! #reflectiveteacher https://t.co/TO8oEhDsYg

@nironside13 Also shows the T likes to have fun, too! #reflectiveteacher

mmorriswrite Mar 8 @ 7:15 PM EST

@jdepler2 Hi Jackie, welcome! We are getting ready for Q2. Qs are coming from @MsJWhiting tonight! #reflectiveteacher

jdepler2 Mar 8 @ 7:15 PM EST

A1: Incorporating multiple senses makes lessons interactive. Vary the senses to increase student engagement. #reflectiveteacher

MsJWhiting Mar 8 @ 7:15 PM EST

Q2 #reflectiveteacher https://t.co/jlNGvM1ZN4

nironside13 Mar 8 @ 7:16 PM EST

@MsJWhiting oh, heck yes!!! #reflectiveteacher

mmorriswrite Mar 8 @ 7:17 PM EST

So true. The more senses that are involved, the more chance the student will be engaged. #reflectiveteacher https://t.co/KpabNcr4CZ

jdepler2 Mar 8 @ 7:15 PM EST

A1: Incorporating multiple senses makes lessons interactive. Vary the senses to increase student engagement. #reflectiveteacher

MsJWhiting Mar 8 @ 7:17 PM EST

A2: When my kids were little I loved watching their tactile learning play (rice tables!); that is hard in High Schl #reflectiveteacher

JimSarto Mar 8 @ 7:17 PM EST

#reflectiveteacher Online classroom & staff chats

mashupmath Mar 8 @ 7:17 PM EST

A2: Taste and smell in a math class!? I have yet to even attempt to hit these senses ;) #reflectiveteacher

suepetersen17 Mar 8 @ 7:17 PM EST

A2 I think taste unless eating a snack unrelated to lesson counts #reflectiveteacher

jdepler2 Mar 8 @ 7:18 PM EST

A2: Taste. There is a limitation in what students can consume (allergies etc.) #reflectiveteacher

ChrisAFRIN Mar 8 @ 7:18 PM EST

A2 @MsJWhiting taste #reflectiveteacher

nironside13 Mar 8 @ 7:19 PM EST

A2: Movement can be diff if admin doesn't support "that kind" of learning. But smell for me is a big challenge! #reflectiveteacher

MsJWhiting Mar 8 @ 7:19 PM EST

A2: I used to have a cookbook of the First Ladies; gave insight into tastes of the eras! #reflectiveteacher

mmorriswrite Mar 8 @ 7:19 PM EST

@MsJWhiting That's out of many HS Ss' comfort zones by then. They are fearful of how they might "look" to their peers. #reflectiveteacher

MsJWhiting Mar 8 @ 7:19 PM EST

A2: My new movement review game is Truth or Dance! #reflectiveteacher

nironside13 Mar 8 @ 7:20 PM EST

@suepetersen17 it might count - if Ss can connect the taste to the idea later.. #reflectiveteacher

MsJWhiting Mar 8 @ 7:20 PM EST

@nironside13 @suepetersen17 cookie cutters that are shaped like the states make good puzzles! #reflectiveteacher

BrandonChiapa Mar 8 @ 7:20 PM EST

A1: Teach with Ss sensory preference in mind and promote collaboration of Ss w/ different preferences #reflectiveteacher #tech280

mmorriswrite Mar 8 @ 7:21 PM EST

Wow! @ChrisAFRIN @jdepler2 @suepetersen17 and @mashupmath all said TASTE at once for A2. I agree. It's the toughest one. #reflectiveteacher

suepetersen17 Mar 8 @ 7:21 PM EST

@mashupmath graph M and Ms or Fruit loops 😊#reflectiveteacher

MsJWhiting Mar 8 @ 7:22 PM EST

Interesting exercise: isolating a sense; S's listen to old recording... what do you hear in the voice, background, etc. #reflectiveteacher

mmorriswrite Mar 8 @ 7:22 PM EST

@nironside13 Large movements can be tricky in certain classrooms, for sure. #reflectiveteacher

mashupmath Mar 8 @ 7:22 PM EST

@MsJWhiting That's a cool idea--definitely gives Ss a different perspective and activates fresh thought patterns. #reflectiveteacher

nironside13 Mar 8 @ 7:23 PM EST

@MsJWhiting did I read correctly when u said this was outside your expertise?!? You're an expert #multisensory teacher! #reflectiveteacher

MsJWhiting Mar 8 @ 7:23 PM EST

Chem S's ask people to taste chemical strips to see if you can taste certain chemicals... yuck! :) #reflectiveteacher

nironside13 Mar 8 @ 7:23 PM EST

@MsJWhiting sounds like #mindfulness to me!! #reflectiveteacher

jdepler2 Mar 8 @ 7:23 PM EST

@mmorriswrite @nironside13 Movement is an integral part of my classroom. Ss have had the most success when using it #reflectiveteacher

ChrisAFRIN Mar 8 @ 7:23 PM EST

@mmorriswrite @jdepler2 @suepetersen17 @mashupmath but take the group camping taste can be incorporated #bushcraft #reflectiveteacher

jdepler2 Mar 8 @ 7:24 PM EST

@ChrisAFRIN @mmorriswrite @suepetersen17 @mashupmath Depends on your district. #reflectiveteacher

mmorriswrite Mar 8 @ 7:24 PM EST

Great #reflectiveteacher discussion about incorporating the senses in learning tonight. Q3 coming up in a minute from @MsJWhiting...

MsJWhiting Mar 8 @ 7:24 PM EST

@mashupmath It was something I thought about when I had a hearing-impaired S, then a visual impaired S... #reflectiveteacher

MsJWhiting Mar 8 @ 7:25 PM EST

Let's keep the convo going...Q3 #reflectiveteacher https://t.co/zOQfyrsmwT

mmorriswrite Mar 8 @ 7:25 PM EST

@jdepler2 @nironside13 That's great, Jackie. Can you share some examples with us? #reflectiveteacher

ChrisAFRIN Mar 8 @ 7:25 PM EST

Agree @jdepler2 but could be a residential in a wilderness area @mmorriswrite @suepetersen17 @mashupmath #reflectiveteacher

jdepler2 Mar 8 @ 7:26 PM EST

@mmorriswrite @nironside13 Ss work around the room. Dance/ hand movements to learn new concepts. Brain breaks. #reflectiveteacher

nironside13 Mar 8 @ 7:26 PM EST

@MsJWhiting @mashupmath that opens up a whole new perspective - wow! #reflectiveteacher

mmorriswrite Mar 8 @ 7:26 PM EST

@MsJWhiting @mashupmath Exploring our senses can help students empathize with others. Great point. #reflectiveteacher

MsJWhiting Mar 8 @ 7:27 PM EST

@jdepler2 @mmorriswrite @nironside13 @hiphughes finger game to teach Amendments; works great! https://t.co/OlHLalPdfy #reflectiveteacher

mmorriswrite Mar 8 @ 7:28 PM EST

@djsardine @jdepler2 I often snack when I read and write...works for me. :) #reflectiveteacher

mashupmath Mar 8 @ 7:28 PM EST

A3: I like to make video lessons using animation software to make math concepts more visual: https://t.co/RGSH1xHPN8 #reflectiveteacher

jdepler2 Mar 8 @ 7:28 PM EST

I've taught my Ss simple sign language as well so they are learning a concept using a different language and motion. #reflectiveteacher

mmorriswrite Mar 8 @ 7:28 PM EST

@MsJWhiting @jdepler2 @nironside13 @hiphughes Good example...movements don't have to be large to have an impact. #reflectiveteacher

MsJWhiting Mar 8 @ 7:29 PM EST

Fav lesson: making a living tableau from a master painting; then analyze posed classmates #reflectiveteacher

BrandonChiapa Mar 8 @ 7:29 PM EST

A3: weeblyinteractive offers few options that include auditory, visual modes. Not fave, but a go to at times #reflectiveteacher #tech280

nironside13 Mar 8 @ 7:29 PM EST

@mmorriswrite @MsJWhiting @jdepler2 @hiphughes very true! #reflectiveteacher

nironside13 Mar 8 @ 7:30 PM EST

@mashupmath great share! Thanks! #reflectiveteacher

suepetersen17 Mar 8 @ 7:30 PM EST

A4 explain everything uses seeing, hearing, feeling #reflectiveteacher

ChrisAFRIN Mar 8 @ 7:30 PM EST

A3 @MsJWhiting taking Ss out on a countryside walk can cover most e.g. using senses to aid location TSiH & even Smell #reflectiveteacher

MsJWhiting Mar 8 @ 7:31 PM EST

Text analysis exercise works well with music compliment: read Kerouac while listening to Charlie Parker #reflectiveteacher

nironside13 Mar 8 @ 7:32 PM EST

@suepetersen17 true! And nice tech integration & content creation, too! #reflectiveteacher

MsJWhiting Mar 8 @ 7:32 PM EST

Remove all references to one sense from an imagery passage... what happens to the meaning? #reflectiveteacher

nironside13 Mar 8 @ 7:33 PM EST

Nice way to add cultural learning, as well... I'm coming to your next poetry reading! #reflectiveteacher https://t.co/5YD6065zzj

MsJWhiting Mar 8 @ 7:31 PM EST

Text analysis exercise works well with music compliment: read Kerouac while listening to Charlie Parker #reflectiveteacher

ChrisAFRIN Mar 8 @ 7:33 PM EST

Hi @jdepler2 was this Matakon? #reflectiveteacher

suepetersen17 Mar 8 @ 7:33 PM EST

@MsJWhiting I love the idea of painting to inspire writing. Create a Monet and write about it. #reflectiveteacher

mmorriswrite Mar 8 @ 7:34 PM EST

So many great examples for how we can address multiple senses! #reflectiveteacher Q4 coming up in a minute...

MsJWhiting Mar 8 @ 7:34 PM EST

@nironside13 First read the the text, then add music while reading... then, wait for it, a painting analysis #reflectiveteacher

MsJWhiting Mar 8 @ 7:35 PM EST

Question 4: #reflectiveteacher https://t.co/X04RieTuXu

MsJWhiting Mar 8 @ 7:35 PM EST

@nironside13 Kerouac with Charlie Parker and Jackson Pollack - awesome! #reflectiveteacher

mmorriswrite Mar 8 @ 7:35 PM EST

This is so intriguing...I am going to have to try this! #reflectiveteacher @pennyrfisher @CathyReilly2LA https://t.co/KIQWRaSbZ2

MsJWhiting Mar 8 @ 7:32 PM EST

Remove all references to one sense from an imagery passage... what happens to the meaning? #reflectiveteacher

mashupmath Mar 8 @ 7:36 PM EST

A4: Sensual learning activities make us feel more connected and in tune with whatever activity we are participating in. #reflectiveteacher

jdepler2 Mar 8 @ 7:36 PM EST

A4: Some might think teaching to the senses = play, but play and teaching to the senses = learning. #reflectiveteacher

ChrisAFRIN Mar 8 @ 7:36 PM EST

@suepetersen17 @MsJWhiting a variation on this would be view an image & jot down six words that a Ss can relate to image #reflectiveteacher

MsJWhiting Mar 8 @ 7:37 PM EST

Great formula adaptation! #reflectiveteacher https://t.co/jF7ka3P8Er

jdepler2 Mar 8 @ 7:36 PM EST

A4: Some might think teaching to the senses = play, but play and teaching to the senses = learning. #reflectiveteacher

nironside13 Mar 8 @ 7:38 PM EST

A4: #multisensory teaching lends itself well to playfulness & engagement. Assignments can feel less like "work".. #reflectiveteacher

mmorriswrite Mar 8 @ 7:38 PM EST

@mashupmath Connection is a big part of it! The more of our senses involved, the more connected we are. #reflectiveteacher

MsJWhiting Mar 8 @ 7:38 PM EST

Play is the ultimate exploration - bounce all of your senses off the world - can't learn without it! #reflectiveteacher

ChrisAFRIN Mar 8 @ 7:39 PM EST

A4 @jdepler2 did an exercise in communication S blindfolded reacting to directions from S over a mini assault course #reflectiveteacher

GibsonEdu Mar 8 @ 7:39 PM EST

Q&A w/ My Middle School Students #edchat #7thchat #mtbos #middleschool #reflectiveteacher #qanda... https://t.co/6hMLwrYBeb

nironside13 Mar 8 @ 7:40 PM EST

@mmorriswrite @mashupmath so true! Also deepens S ability to interpret & synthesize through senses. #reflectiveteacher

MsJWhiting Mar 8 @ 7:40 PM EST

A4: When I play, I get: dirty, tired, excited, inspired... from touching, tasting, smelling, hearing, etc. I learn. #reflectiveteacher

jdepler2 Mar 8 @ 7:40 PM EST

@ChrisAFRIN Did they love it? #reflectiveteacher

nironside13 Mar 8 @ 7:41 PM EST

@ChrisAFRIN @jdepler2 assault course?? What is that? #reflectiveteacher

MsJWhiting Mar 8 @ 7:41 PM EST

@ChrisAFRIN @jdepler2 Sounds like a Survivor challenge... learn to listen, explain creatively, accurately, lead & follow #reflectiveteacher

ChrisAFRIN Mar 8 @ 7:42 PM EST

@jdepler2 They did - roles were swapped so everyone experienced being blindfolded improved their verbal comms skills #reflectiveteacher

mmorriswrite Mar 8 @ 7:42 PM EST

@nironside13 @ChrisAFRIN @jdepler2 I was wondering the same thing, Nancy. :) #reflectiveteacher

MsJWhiting Mar 8 @ 7:43 PM EST

@ChrisAFRIN @jdepler2 How old are your students? #reflectiveteacher What was their feedback afterwards?

ChrisAFRIN Mar 8 @ 7:43 PM EST

@mmorriswrite @nironside13 @jdepler2 obstacle course moving over / around trees / logs etc.. #reflectiveteacher

mmorriswrite Mar 8 @ 7:44 PM EST

@ChrisAFRIN @jdepler2 It's amazing how much we rely on our sense of sight to communicate. #reflectiveteacher

mmorriswrite Mar 8 @ 7:44 PM EST

Time is flying at the #reflectiveteacher chat tonight! Here comes Q5 from @MsJWhiting...

mmorriswrite Mar 8 @ 7:45 PM EST

@ChrisAFRIN @nironside13 @jdepler2 I never knew that was what it's called. Thanks! #reflectiveteacher

MsJWhiting Mar 8 @ 7:45 PM EST

Thinking outside the classroom box... Q5: #reflectiveteacher https://t.co/UvTDKd3PE3

nironside13 Mar 8 @ 7:45 PM EST

lots of great #multisensory ideas to try in the classroom . wow! #reflectiveteacher

ChrisAFRIN Mar 8 @ 7:45 PM EST

Exactly @MsJWhiting @jdepler2 Ss were on a @teachBTEC Public Services course #reflectiveteacher

mashupmath Mar 8 @ 7:45 PM EST

@nironside13 Definitely has me thinking about creative ways to make my lessons more multi-sensory. #reflectiveteacher

jdepler2 Mar 8 @ 7:45 PM EST

A5: I take advantage of nice weather. When planning a lesson, I ask if it would benefit Ss to teach lesson outside. #reflectiveteacher

ChrisAFRIN Mar 8 @ 7:46 PM EST

May be a British only term @mmorriswrite @nironside13 @jdepler2 #reflectiveteacher

nironside13 Mar 8 @ 7:47 PM EST

YES!!!! #reflectiveteacher Supports lesson & learning AND shows Ss how much fun it is to be outside! https://t.co/ETIAMRq9MS

jdepler2 Mar 8 @ 7:45 PM EST

A5: I take advantage of nice weather. When planning a lesson, I ask if it would benefit Ss to teach lesson outside. #reflectiveteacher

jdepler2 Mar 8 @ 7:47 PM EST

We went outside today and they spent 5 minutes "getting their wiggles out". Rest of lesson we were writing our drafts. #reflectiveteacher

suepetersen17 Mar 8 @ 7:47 PM EST

Q5 take cooking classes to learn about how math through recipes #reflectiveteacher

MsJWhiting Mar 8 @ 7:47 PM EST

How about a sense scavenger hunt? All over the building and outside or their homes #reflectiveteacher

ChrisAFRIN Mar 8 @ 7:47 PM EST

All Ss found it difficult to communicate instructions at first but they improved rapidly @mmorriswrite @jdepler2 #reflectiveteacher

MsJWhiting Mar 8 @ 7:48 PM EST

@suepetersen17 love it! I watched a cooking show where the chef was cooking for an army unit - holy multiplication! #reflectiveteacher

mmorriswrite Mar 8 @ 7:48 PM EST

@jdepler2 I always loved when students wanted to have class outside. The breeze, the warmth of the sun...inspiring. #reflectiveteacher

mashupmath Mar 8 @ 7:49 PM EST

A5: Ss can make outside-of-school learning multi-sensory by using their skills to create physical artifacts. #reflectiveteacher

ChrisAFRIN Mar 8 @ 7:49 PM EST

@MsJWhiting @jdepler2 My Ss are mainly 16 - 19 years old but can be older #reflectiveteacher they gave each other feedback based on their ex

MsJWhiting Mar 8 @ 7:49 PM EST

Ask my students to stage scenes from a play; take us somewhere around the building to watch performance #reflectiveteacher

nironside13 Mar 8 @ 7:49 PM EST

@ChrisAFRIN @mmorriswrite @jdepler2 ooohhhh! Worked in #Quaker school, so reacted strongly 2 idea of assault-Forgive me! #reflectiveteacher

jdepler2 Mar 8 @ 7:49 PM EST

@mmorriswrite Motivates writers to find different settings at home. Writing doesn't always happen at a desk. #reflectiveteacher

nironside13 Mar 8 @ 7:50 PM EST

@suepetersen17 yes! Builds math AND life skills! #reflectiveteacher

mmorriswrite Mar 8 @ 7:50 PM EST

@ChrisAFRIN @jdepler2 It reminds us how adaptable we are...and what it is like to live without certain senses. #reflectiveteacher #empathy

mmorriswrite Mar 8 @ 7:51 PM EST

@jdepler2 True! I did my best writing in college WHILE I was walking between classes on campus. #reflectiveteacher #writerslife

ChrisAFRIN Mar 8 @ 7:51 PM EST

No problems @nironside13 @mmorriswrite @jdepler2 terms in one country can mean different things in another - #diversity #reflectiveteacher

MsJWhiting Mar 8 @ 7:52 PM EST

My S's frequently ask me to turn on CC when watching a video - helps them with accents. Interesting sense response #reflectiveteacher

mmorriswrite Mar 8 @ 7:52 PM EST

@MsJWhiting That could be fun! Hmmm... #reflectiveteacher

nironside13 Mar 8 @ 7:52 PM EST

@ChrisAFRIN @mmorriswrite @jdepler2 and shades of meaning - lots of great discussion when we talk about words.. #reflectiveteacher

ChrisAFRIN Mar 8 @ 7:53 PM EST

A case of providing our Ss with this experience to enable greater understanding & #empathy @mmorriswrite @jdepler2 #reflectiveteacher

nironside13 Mar 8 @ 7:53 PM EST

@MsJWhiting visual cues AND auditory input add to comprehension & retention #reflectiveteacher

mmorriswrite Mar 8 @ 7:54 PM EST

As we get ready to wrap up this #reflectiveteacher chat, what is your big takeaway for the night? Something you will try with your students?

MsJWhiting Mar 8 @ 7:54 PM EST

@ChrisAFRIN @mmorriswrite @jdepler2 Tremendous problem solving experience, teamwork, can't do it w/o empathy; great job! #reflectiveteacher

ChrisAFRIN Mar 8 @ 7:55 PM EST

Agree @nironside13 @mmorriswrite @jdepler2 & how our sences react to certain words #reflectiveteacher

MsJWhiting Mar 8 @ 7:56 PM EST

Last Q: #reflectiveteacher https://t.co/mUj3zErUt8

mashupmath Mar 8 @ 7:57 PM EST

A6: I took away that I should consider creative ways to incorporate all of the senses when planning future activities. #reflectiveteacher

nironside13 Mar 8 @ 7:57 PM EST

This hour really flew by! Great to see some new faces here at #reflectiveteacher

ChrisAFRIN Mar 8 @ 7:57 PM EST

Thank you @MsJWhiting @mmorriswrite @jdepler2 all skills mentioned above useful for employability too #reflectiveteacher

jdepler2 Mar 8 @ 7:57 PM EST

A6: I want to try using the scavenger hunt outside tomorrow @MsJWhiting #reflectiveteacher

suepetersen17 Mar 8 @ 7:57 PM EST

A5 when I create a lesson I will ask myself how I can I incorporate the senses. I never really thought about that before #reflectiveteacher

nironside13 Mar 8 @ 7:58 PM EST

Special thanks to @mmorriswrite & @MsJWhiting for leading tonight's chat! They run a tight ship, eh, @bleidolf67 ?? #reflectiveteacher

MsJWhiting Mar 8 @ 7:58 PM EST

@jdepler2 Sounds fun! It is will 70 degrees here! Yahoo! #reflectiveteacher

MsJWhiting Mar 8 @ 7:59 PM EST

Super fun chat tonight #reflectiveteacher crew. Thanks for many great ideas!

ChrisAFRIN Mar 8 @ 7:59 PM EST

A6 go for it @jdepler2 & let us know how it went @MsJWhiting #reflectiveteacher

mmorriswrite Mar 8 @ 7:59 PM EST

BT: I can't wait to try omitting a sense from a reading passage to examine how it changes meaning. Thanks, @MsJWhiting! #reflectiveteacher

mashupmath Mar 8 @ 7:59 PM EST

Great chat everyone! So many great insights and ideas! -Anthony :) #reflectiveteacher
