Nervous about it, but will definitely ask Ss for help. My 5 year old nephew uses it...with parent sup. of course!

Snapchat is great to share and create stories. It shows you how to be creative!
-
. A2: Get to know the program before you start using it.
-
Q3: How have you used in your instruction or where do you see the potential for it?
-
I was using it with my 2 year old cousin and she was having so much fun and we played with MSQRD app as well!
-
I saw snapchat as a fad too until I saw an example of how another Eng. T used it
-
-
As a horizontal video enthusiast, kind of drives me nuts.
-
A3: I will be using the daily Story feature to document the day. I can then send that to YouTube each day.
-

I have done quick notes. But really I need to be more artistic & creative with it. https://t.co/hAyWVUcRPp

A3: I have for intro. for different topics & will be using it for my video intro that will be on my post card before school starts

Leaders can use to show what's happening in the school.

-
Would use it 2 have Ss create stories...acting as a character from a novel. I would have them storyboard and plan it out
-
Students in 3U English class used to complete a character analysis of Great Gatsby https://t.co/A3mRHrWpaQ
-
-
Ss created Snapchat Story character analyses for the novel 'The Great Gatsby.' Here is Olivia's Snapstory! https://t.co/vFzVOqt8VP
-
A2: Have found 1 good way to learn a new tool is to find a Voxer group designed around it. Has helped w snapchat, periscope, more
-
A2: Give your students a contest by utilizing snapchat. Students can communicate with others and show school spirit!
-
-
Create stories that reflect a certain theme or mood. Or creating stories that rep something we read
-
It would be nice if snapchat would add a way to toggle between other accts
-
A3. Hi! Hopping in late& as able. Going to use this year to promote library events, book club, new books, etc.
-
A2: Go somewhere fun and use it to visually document the trip. It's hard at first without cause. Only so many selfies.
-
. Thankfully I have a classroom tablet that I can put another account on.
-
Q3 Haven't tried with students - just learning from everybody
-
I'm listening to the live feed and tweeting. This is amazing. I'm a twitter newbie:)
-
A3: I saw it here, and when the blog post received crickets I thought I must be way off base! https://t.co/6oiYWtIpm6

. You are doing a great job. Keep it up.
-
A3: Students can use snapchat to create a live newsfeed of school events!
-
A2 - Find other educators to follow. Think about your age group. Have goals of what want to use it for so has a broad focus.
-
This is a great way to collaborate too! Great idea!
-
-
. is a great tool to show the progress in a project, like setting up our classrooms.
-
I am hoping they add that feature soon.
-
A3: could be a great way for schools to introduces Ts to the community
-
-

Good for you! You will find that the community is amazing and supportive.

There are so many great accounts to follow to learn how to use educationally: Department of Interior, NY Hall of Science

Follow . It's her account tweeting them via Q1, etc. to
-
Okay thanks everybody. talk soon.
-
Love the idea of snapchat for a backchannel during PD
-
Love the idea of using Snapchat for PD
-
Using social media in the classroom to model how to appropriately use under guidance of Ts. Yes! Yes! Yes
-
Luv idea of turning it over to Ss. I agree with . I think Ss need guidance and parent comm. about aims is key
-
How about letting parents share their children's learning outside of school via snapchat story?
-
My biggest issue is remembering to use when I want to take a photo. Lots of options.
-
Q4: What do educators need to keep in mind when using ?
-
when will you add the toggle feature?? We are waiting especially us educators.....
-
A1 hi everyone - Kate from Buffalo, science & STEM T, I love the alien filter with voice changer
-
-
I didn't think of this! https://t.co/DNhx5CvYZc
-
-

-
A4: don't always let your Ss see post from media adds bc now all snaps are appreciate, see what filters they hv that day
-
A2 join the snapchat Voxer group and ask your students for tips! Play around
-
Agree with Jameelah. My nephew was scared by one of the filters. Thanks for the tip 2 review the filters
-
Boundaries, for sure! Always keeping their boundaries set
-
A4: How about having students crowdsource & create a "snapchat best practices" series that could be live and evolving
-
I spend a ton of time trying to get this point across to Parents & colleagues
-
Q4: Great idea from Talking Snapchat - be aware of the filters and what some of the filters are associated with.
-
Awesome idea. Bring Ps into the classroom. https://t.co/D0e7XJo6TW

just dropping in. Heidi Solway, Grade 7/8 teacher in Ontario, Canada
-
A3 haven't used much except in bridging the gap between Ss and Ts. Potential as scavenger hunt tool,
-
Can you give an example? I suspect that many GenXers could be clueless as to hidden meanings. DM? Thanks!
-
-
-
A3 cont'd use for mini lessons, recording moments in lab
-
A4: If it is on a S's phone it's already out of your control, so how will you help Ss to channel their digital powers for good?
-
A4- Some Ps may not want Ss using so need a 2nd venue/option. Be fun but also stay professional to a degree.
-
If parents/admin aren't too sure of snapchat, you can always use MSQRD app.
-
This is a great idea for the student tech team at a school
-
I'm new to but know it's definitely the go to social medium for kids! Must learn.so far ❤️ it!
-
A4 teach digital citizenship, rules in classroom, & boundaries
-
through modeling and class discussion
-
We all know the Ss like the filters. Lol. Reminds me of the very old program
