#edu407update I was going through and doing a video feedback for everyone's writing modules but it seems folks are still finishing those up so I am gonna swing back and do badges for your comprehension lesson plans. Gonna combine them into one.
#edu307 as it is poetry month teachers think about how many of your student athlete's approach poetry from the field: https://karlenewelles.wordpress.com/2019/04/04/poetry/ make this connection explicit and celebrate poetry in motion on paper and on the field #literacies #nctevillage
#edu407 Brittney provided us with a good think aloud scrip in this lesson plan: https://dubretedu407.wordpress.com/2019/03/27/supporting-beginning-readers-in-reading-to-learn/ only thing I would ad is to make sure you model, model, model before you prompt. Use the language of "what would good readers do" etc
#edu307 I did not realize the chosen book for #edu307 was a novel. That is too much. I love "Ella Enchanted" but I will look for some short stories to swap out.
And in post-colonial nations emerging directly into a mobile first world the results are more frightening. We are talking about the recolonizing of the world as mercantile powers seize control of your identity and data.
#edu407 I like how this lesson plan uses reflection to drive self-assessment: https://jessicaatkins.wordpress.com/2019/04/22/407-module-6-comprehension-lesson-plan/ 3,2,1 lessons are great tools for reading for information

Writing without passion is writing without purpose. https://david.sh
@jessDearie Shows importance why we need to double down efforts on #webliteracy and how we #teachtheweb, we can allow our children to do identity work online or allow this work to be sold back to them through the constant drugs of envy and notifications
#edu407 you can check out Sandra's comprehension lesson plans to see examples of assessments tightly aligned with the learning objectives that also scaffold the knowledge growth that will allow evidence to emerge in the assessment. https://sabblogblog.wordpress.com/2019/04/18/comprehension-i/
#edu407 Here is a a good offline digital inquiry lesson plan: https://anaspreschoolcorner.home.blog/2019/04/27/lesson-plan-inquiry-and-digital-text/ Using images to convey meaning is such an important part of writing and reading now
#edu407 This is a good lesson analyzing characters. Focus your lesson plan on this. You do not need to include every objective and every standard your lesson will touch. Just those that you plan to measure. I would also read the book a second time to really focus in on the characters after you introduced them on the first read.
Elizabeth your real estate friends are always welcome to come to Homebrew Website Club New Haven...It's the same time as our open design studio (same thing really)....We have one this Wednesday.... Here is a rough draft of a website I am working on http://elmcitywebmakers.com/ and a flyer https://elmcitywebmakers.com/flyer.pdf
I try to avoid starting the digital #literacies conversation from a place of plagiarism. As an educator assume the best in children.
