Thanksgiving has been about family, friends, cleaning, coding, and coding + writing feedback. I teach multilingual jhs students. They write in Slides so that their classmates can inspire them while I give real time feedback. I then use code I wrote plus ChatGPT to give detailed feedback. #EduSky

Rosenshine's Principles of Instruction can have a profound impact on all students, including multilingual learners. However, for multilingual learners to fully benefit, adaptations are often necessary ⬇️ (1/2) #edusky #EAL #multilingual #MLs

Rainy days are the best days to code. This Thanksgiving break will be spent updating the SlidesCreate add-on. When I feel lost, I will remember everything @claycodes.bsky.social taught me and ask AI questions. Challenges inspire me. #EduSky

My Edtech journey began in high school, teaching Logo to third graders. After a decade in the classroom, I transitioned to the technology specialist role. I've been empowering elementary students to code, think creatively, and be responsible digital citizens for over 15 years. #EduSky

A1. I give my college Ss feedforward, which they don't understand. They want to know the grade for eligibility & parental pressure & . . . I want ppl to understand a grade is an arbitrary & inaccurate measure of one's capability & capacity in that moment in time. Grading suggests learning is a 1/3

Completing ELL evalutions is never fun, but I coded student writing portfolios with a dashboard. The writing was scored by AI and confirmed by me. I feel better prepared to complete 108 forms (due Friday because I procrastinate; I would rather code or give writing feedback ). #edusky

My students create our yearbook in Google Slides, print them, and sell them for $15. This week, we will use AI image generation to brainstorm 2-page layouts that we will recreate. Here is an example. I kinda like it. #EduSky Creating is fun!
