A1: #TECHinELA helped by teaching ME how to shortcuts to use media in class. Students avoided (and now understand) that plagerism means taking ANY material, not just words, that aren't theirs! #d100chat
A2: #TECHinELA helped me see the power of a new way to share coaching strategies - through a challenge of tips! Great leadership @JennyLehotsky#d100chat
A2: Along with #photosforclass, tech has improved literacy through #epic and @myONreader. Ss love having books read to them, and answering questions about the text after. #d100chat
A2: I use tech to allow student choice assessments. Students can choose how to show their understand and thinking in a way that works best for them #d100chat
A2 - currently collaborating with @bilingiallopez on using Seesaw to implement an English lotta Lara of a sight word poem! Can't wait to see this all unfold next week! Just need to figure out how the students can mark up the poem in the app! Anyone know?! #D100chat
I have been researching the value and best practices of using mentor sentences and Dictado to help students become better readers and writers. Thank you, web resources! (and of course, Meg Reckley's PD for the kick off) #D100chat#teampershing
Q1 It's always important to remember to use and leverage the tools we have to to amplify student learning. #TECHinELA helped me remember some of the digital tools that we have access to while teaching lessons and coaching others. Thanks, @JennyLehotsky#d100chat

A2. Choice is key to all of this. Intentional choice on the part of students.
“What’s the best source to read from?”
“What’s the best way to document my thinking?”
This is how to build citizens.

A3: Coming from a school with very limited technology to a school that is 1:1 has been life changing. It is significantly easier to keep Ss engaged and interested in learning when they are able to control it themselves and discover new ways through tech! #d100chat
A2: Changed my current assessment form GoogleSlides to a choice board when I took a step back and look at all my S's strengths! Why did I expect them all to succeed using the same medium? #TECHinELA#D100chat
A3 - I have become so much more aware of what's available in the digital print world (MyOn, epic, newsela). Turning pages of real books will always be #1, but our students are so lucky to have access to literally any topic they are interested in reading about! #D100chat
A3: They are using their research skills everyday as they find or discover something they want more information about. They have answers at their fingertips! #D100chat

A3: I think we all know I’m a math lover... but guess what, literacy was important in my middle school math classroom! Students writing math blogs was one of my favorite ways to incoorporate writing in math. #d100chat
A3: using #TECHinELA to connect the literacy coaches and icoaches has been such a great experience! We are building new relationships with our strengths @leahod#d100chat
So important to teach our kids multiple ways to read a book so that they can put those ways in their “toolbox” and use what’s right for that moment #D100chat
A4: so impressed with this #TECHinELA project. A creative idea that helped so many teachers. Very inspiring and great coaching work @JennyLehotsky! 😊 #d100chat
I'm not new here, and my view is still transforming. After almost 20 years, I still learn new things from looking at my student work. I'm so glad you see that already. Welcome to D100. #d100chat
