The school year is back on!
We've been back for a week: it's time to start blogging ideas again!
Last night, I took part in two wonderful Twitter chats #sdedchat and #worldgeochat
I love my building staff, but I love to reconnect and make new connections with my PLN.
Things I took away:
NEVER BE AFRAID TO ASK!
I've gotten some great ideas for my students from chatting with these other wonderful teachers!
I want to try a zombie escape - much like @SrtaLisa did for her students: Seriously WAY cool!
I also want to do more with Mystery Skypes / Mystery Hangouts this year -- planning is already in progress!
I also realized I have valuable "stuff" to contribute.
When I started to teach geography, another teacher gave me a packet they got from a meeting - teaching the Five Themes of Geography by using the NFL. I've tweaked it some each year, and soon I'll have this year's revamps done. Pages will come soon!
I also shared the MR. HELP for geography - something I stumbled on YEARS ago on the web - sorry, no idea who came up with it.
