After looking over the Kentucky’s Uniform Academic Course Codes webpage, I have two main concerns. The first major concern is having the staff to support a well-diversified curriculum, but there is also the threat of larger districts with these courses and more and more students switching and moving away from our schools. As always, we will a…Read More

One method of assessment that I use within my classroom is the “gallery walk.” I incorporate movie/TV quotes or song lyrics and hang them on the walls. Students then have time to circle the room and study each quote. Depending on the unit, students must recognize grammar mistakes or any literary devices. It is great for engaging the stu…Read More

If students can recognize good work and find errors to make it great, then how much better will they be at producing great work themselves. I love the idea of using a gallery walk to do this.

The best thing that I use to assess my students includes numerous Google Apps for Education. I use Google Classroom as my home for the students to get their work. Slides,…Read More

Wow!
Has 1 to 1 capability helped in your ability to use formative assessment?-
Yes! Students can collaborate and share many assignments, I can use technology to administer exit tickets, and 1 to 1 gives way to creative presentation opportunities. Socratic.com is great for quick class feedback for bell ringers and exit tickets.

Great! Hope opportunities like this will continue to grow.

This is great! I have recently been having my students do their notes in google slides and they love it! And they will always have them in their Google Drive! No more “lost” notes.

Were you trained on Google classroom or did you just start playing around on it to figure out all of the different capabilities it offers? I would love to attend a training on how to use google classroom in a math classroom. I’m especially interested in how students would show their work.

This is the first time I have reviewed the course codes in depth. There are numerous options. I believe the biggest concern is that we would love to incorporate many new courses, but do not have the staff nor the student population to accompany this. What I do know is that our school moving to a 1 to 1 initiative has allowed us to explore more…Read More

Understood. Was shared yesterday in assessment webcast that Pearson platform for high school EOCs is the beginning of the next steps towards online KPREP state testing. 1 to 1 will serve you well as we move in this direction.

You are 100% correct about the staffing issue especially when all we do is cut funding in this state.

We have also been attempting to make the move to standards-based grading. Through this process, we do reteaching and retesting. One of the strategies that I’ve found to be helpful is allowing students to do test corrections on the first test. Students don’t get the same test when they retest. After the tests are graded, they are returned, and…Read More

Mastery learning for sure! A lot of work, but I know you see more learning. Does Infinite Campus allow you to set-up a standards based grading book?
