This is our last #mbedchat of the 2020-2021 school year. We’ll be back in September. Be sure to check out our twitter account in August to suggest topics and see what we have planned for the upcoming school year.
Tonight’s #mbedchat topic is end of the year reflections.
For those who're new...we do a “structured chat” with Question 1, Q1, and Answer 1, A1, to support all to participate! #mbedchat
Welcome again to all. Please share who you are, what you teach and where you are tweeting from! #mbedchat
You may want to use Tweetdeck/Hootsuite/tweetchat or another client that allows columns. #mbedchat

A4: always minecraft. It’s a great space for collaboration but people need to prepare for the griefing culture that is embedded in kids use of it. #mbedchat
@mbedchat1 I do meditation exercises - from @calm and @Headspace, I also go for a walk around the school just to clear my head and breath. #MBEdChat.
A5: Another one was go play a prank on my favourite colleague, this always refreshed my spirit because we'd be light-hearted with one another and his comments would always make me laugh. Lean on one another. #MBEdChat
A5 Take a walk from the room, down the hall, out the door, through the parking lot, in the door, to the staff room, down the hall, back to class (reset) #mbedchat
A3:#MBEdChat As I teach small groups of students reading and writing - I think in our small groups we can together write a play about things that grow in the spring ❤️and act it out 💞
@MatteoDiMuro @ddmeyer I’d forgotten about those. Definitely worth taking a look at #MBEdChat. Could probably adapt it for different foods.
A2. In our science and health we are exploring eating habits and how the body uses different types of food for energy. #MBEdChat
Are you ready for the kick-off to the Royal Manitoba Winter Fair on Monday, March 28th?! Plan to attend our Western Breakfast sponsored by @SunriseCU The breakfast runs from 7-10 am and with the purchase of breakfast ($5) you can stay and enjoy the fair on us!
A1. Self-care can no longer be something “if we have time”. It needs to become part of a shift away from the hustle mantra to where taking care of the whole person is the Center of what we do. Our current situation has shown just how out of balance we have become #MBEdChat
@LoriEmilson Last year I was teaching online, I read each day after lunch. By the end of the year I had parents listening in as we did the Read Aloud. I had a parent send me an email wondering if I could hold off the next chapter as she wasn’t going to be there the next day! #MBEdChat
A5- I’ve been helping to rejuvenate the short stories being used in classrooms. See pic below for my favorite YA short story anthologies. #mbedchat
Q5: What are some of the books you are currently using in your classroom or school to get students excited about reading? #mbedchat
A3: I saw a really cool example this afternoon in a Grade 5 classroom promoting literacy. Students created their own video stories from pics and recorded their voices telling their own stories of the pics 💕then they played their stories. #mbedchat
A3: I like using Epic books when I can for a more digital feel to books. They sometimes have a "read to" option. Vooks is also pretty cool for bringing "interactive/movie style" to books. #mbedchat
@mbedchat1 A3 - I like to have student experience a variety of different ways to explore literacy- video, podcasts, audio books - just through having them explore different options that are available. @Scholastic has a great variety for students to explore. #MBEdChat
A3: I worked with a Gr. 5/6 class last week, helping them get organized to write their own nonfiction picture books using the @BookCreatorApp #mbedchat
A3: autobooks make reading so accessible! Also, picture books are great for discussion points and having an open mind. #mbedchat
A2: @Jarrett_Lerner has lots of great graphics to help students with their creativity and reading reflections. #mbedchat
