Join SLPs and Special Educators to collaborate, share ideas and discuss how we leverage the use of Ed Tech with our challenged learners, the successes and challenges we meet in the process and how we might envision a future where PLNs and SIGs can support educators in providing ALL learners with the 21st century skills needed to lead the future.
Welcome to #SlpSpedChat! We are excited to have @MatthewXJoseph Co-Moderating tonight! Please introduce yourself and share a song you like to rock out to on your ride to work!
#SlpSpedChat@ZajacSLP ready to rock out with tonight's chat!! One of my favorite songs to jam to on the morning car ride is Alicia Keys' "This Girl Is On Fire". Doesn't hurt that my 2 daughte's also LOVE to belt it out anytime we are in the car for more than a 10 min drive!
Erin Fisher, East Bridgewater Tech Integration Specialist, and my latest rock out song is anything from Moana or Lego Batman, since my son insists on it. #SlpSpedChat
Matt J: Director of Digital Learning and Innovation. When I need/want to rock out I put on “Fire” by The Roots featuring John Legend from Creed #SlpSpedChat
Hi #SlpSpedChat 1st time here. I'm Steph Dill elementary SPED T in Colorado. When I'm stressed I love to listen to Jonny Diaz Breathe. That helps put it all back into perspective.
Q1: Share an idea or an experience where the arts (design, musical or otherwise) have enhanced instruction in your classroom beyond the limits of your (& their) imagination. #SlpSpedChat
A1: #SlpSpedChat This week we used poetry & lyrical analysis strategies to identify literary elements, analyze mood, identify symbolism & infer meaning from pop song "ROAR" by Katy Perry. Ss used meaning to create posters to support peers competing in Special Olympics next month.
A1~ 3 Ss represented our classroom in front of school board/central admin & demonstrated such confidence , poise & teamwork that exceeded all high expectations & this set in motion a transfer of such skills to peers & our classroom as a whole 👍 #SlpSpedChat

A1: I try to use a lot of video to enhance learning by using @flipgrid or iMove to get students excited and have the ability to have a voice in creation or take an idea a and make it part of their learning/lives #SlpSpedChathttps://t.co/j2dB1PHsIA

A1: We learned many strategies @techlearning event in Boston to marry EdTech and curriculum to focus on the learning and creation using music, online videos, and graphics #SlpSpedChat#tltechlive@masscue
Curating content with purpose most especially for service learning is a sure fire way to open doors to Ss seeing through to their potential and using gifts to get there! #SLPSpedChat

One yr I gave Ss 2 wks to do something they had never done then report back to us: I got nail art, food critic, photography, jailbreak phones... I think the girl still does photography. #slpspedchat
A2: #SlpSpedChat Every September and as needed, we have open discussion about the value, importance and power of student voice. Telling Ss that they MATTER opens the gate to discussions driven by their thoughts, beliefs and wonders.
A1- the arts are included throughout many of my lessons- I love STEAM! An example is my when my students designer their own creature traps after researching a mythical creature. #SlpSpedChat
A1 I loved giving the kids the choice of doing 1 of these 4 culminating activitied with their litetature circle groups to teach their classmates about their group's book: a talk show, a game show, a song/rap or a play! They were ultra creative.
A2:About two years ago, I also used to use a lot of anonymous Google Forms with just a "tell me what you're thinking" and then post al the answers out in GC for us to talk about. No one knew who wrote what and it led to great discussion.#SlpSpedChat
Q3: Keeping “THE WELL” filled keeps the quest to serve and inspire our Ss rising up! What are some ways you find effective to keep your well filled with positive vibes? #SlpSpedChat feel free to jump over at 9:00 #MasteryChat
