A1: Love it, it is almost essential for my SPED babies #dojochat

MrsFoxs3rdgrade Mar 8 @ 7:12 PM EST

A2: love it if you have time... #dojochat

CaitEileen_W Mar 8 @ 7:12 PM EST

A2 (GREAT Qs!) Love it - it's an art, and some kids who aren't the best printers, are amazing at cursive. #dojochat

TracyEdmisten Mar 8 @ 7:12 PM EST

Q2: Cursive: Love it or leave it…and why? #dojochat

MichelleatEGMS Mar 8 @ 7:13 PM EST

#dojochat A2: still a must. Heard a parent once discuss how not teaching #cursive limits kids from accessing primary docs like Declaration

MrChanceysClass Mar 8 @ 7:13 PM EST

I have had those as well and do this year. You could have specific tasks that can ne "flex time" #dojochat

In reply to @CaitEileen_W

I_teach_Pandas Mar 8 @ 7:14 PM EST

A2: I have trouble getting some of my kiddos to write anything, so cursive is not my top priority #dojochat

techytess Mar 8 @ 7:14 PM EST

A2: My turn to do a both answer: love it- kids enjoy it (mostly) leave it- everything is digital #dojochat

MichelleatEGMS Mar 8 @ 7:14 PM EST

#dojochat A2: if we don't teach it kids can't read authentic primary docs in script- dependent on some one else to #translate

A2 Leave it. I believe Ss should be taught how to sign their name, but that's it. #dojochat

MsMartinOnTheGo Mar 8 @ 7:14 PM EST

#dojochat A2: may be worth a reflection if you think leave it https://t.co/o6Akk8Ye2Y

foreveralearner Mar 8 @ 7:17 PM EST

A2: LOVE it! Just as with other skills, introducing multiple methods allows Ss to develop their strengths and find their voice. #dojochat

HowardKiyuna Mar 8 @ 7:17 PM EST

A2: Loved it. It's been awhile. Used Handwriting Without Tears. Some Ss had better cursive than print-curious abt why? #dojochat

MrsFoxs3rdgrade Mar 8 @ 7:20 PM EST

A3: love it if all my Ss would have internet at home #dojochat

smithstrws - Moderator Mar 8 @ 7:20 PM EST

A3 I love the IDEA of a flipped classroom. But, not all my Ss have access to the interwebs or devices at home, so it's difficult. #DojoChat

HowardKiyuna Mar 8 @ 7:20 PM EST

A3: Love using someone else's flipped stuff :) . But, the more challenged my Ss the less effective. #dojochat

Jyoung1219 Mar 8 @ 7:21 PM EST

TracyEdmisten Mar 8 @ 7:19 PM EST

Q3: Flipped Classroom: Love it or leave it….and why? #dojochat

ajs11491 Mar 8 @ 7:21 PM EST

A3: Depends on grade level. Love blended learning that is differentiated with learning pathways containing choice in 3rd grade. #dojochat

jellison23 Mar 8 @ 7:21 PM EST

A3 I WISH!!! would love it but not all Ss have access to tech. It is the digital divide! #dojochat

mrshaskell213 Mar 8 @ 7:21 PM EST

A3 Leave it. It wouldnt work in my district. Not enough Ss have devices at home. #dojochat

I_teach_Pandas Mar 8 @ 7:21 PM EST

A3: Not sure that would work with the population we have, most of my kiddos don't have computers at home. No flip for me. #dojochat

MichelleatEGMS Mar 8 @ 7:21 PM EST

#dojochat A3: depends on skill and purpose of flip. I've seen it skillfully executed and I have seen just replacing 📝 with 💻 responses

jellison23 Mar 8 @ 7:22 PM EST

MrsLavelle Mar 8 @ 7:24 PM EST

Q3. Love it but mostly in upper grades. Harder for little ones - better if they were able to take devices home #dojochat

#dojochat A4: leave homework out- at a 94% F/R lunch school. So inequitable with who has support, access to help, or even access to light

HowardKiyuna Mar 8 @ 7:29 PM EST

A4: I don't care for it. The stuff I see can be contrived. I do it. But, it never replaces instruction. #dojochat

MrChanceysClass Mar 8 @ 7:29 PM EST

A4: Leave it, read and write with family, make stories, interview Qs for family history #dojochat

jellison23 Mar 8 @ 7:29 PM EST

A6: love it because it's one of my standards. Leave it because it causes anxiety for my Ss #DojoChat

smithstrws - Moderator Mar 8 @ 7:41 PM EST

A6 Leave it. Some will do well, others will never get past their 2s. It's embarrassing for some Ss. Other methods can be used. #DojoChat

jellison23 Mar 8 @ 7:41 PM EST

A6 But then again some argue the age of "knowing things" is over - it is all about knowing how to access #dojochat

A6 Love it if done correctly. Fact fluency is very important, but every S learns them at a diff pace. Its tricky to manage #dojochat
