Last time @Canucks had a playoff game at home, I was finishing my undergrad. I'm now in my 7th year of teaching.
A student who has been reluctant to engage in my class this semester said to me after examining the newest project, "I like this one." Sometimes, it just takes a spark to build engagement. Time will tell if this is that spark.
It's disheartening and frankly disturbing seeing the gross attacks against BCEd teachers on this platform. Mob mentality and ad hominem tirades reign supreme. I used to see this platform as a source of inspiration and hope. Now I see it as a soapbox for hate and division.
I would rather browse for books in a thriftshop than a sprawling Indigo store. There's something magical about not knowing which titles you'll be lucky enough to stumble upon on the dusty shelves. For me, it's 21st century treasure hunting.
I appreciate how hexagonal thinking provides students with a visual representation of how concepts can be connected. I challenged students to visualize how different concepts from their other classes could connect with each other and with those we were learning about together.
I showed some students a copy of the curriculum, as they were curious about it. They were shocked. They assumed teachers had a comprehensive document methodically breaking down all the concepts we teach. The students have a newfound appreciation for what their teachers do.
I'm teaching civil disobedience through the lens of hexagonal thinking. Here are a few sample slides from my ongoing presentation that are meant to help students understand the concept.
Spending the evening watching our Senior Boys' Provincial opener. Am I a huge basketball fan? Not exactly. But I am a huge fan of the dedication and hard work our boys put in each and every day.
I've implemented hexagonal thinking into my social justice class. I may be a new convert. I'm excited about the early engagement and results.
This ongoing talk about Surrey removing classic books from their suggested text list shines a light on the bigger problem: BC needs a curriculum that ensures the historical context for those books & the suggested ones is taught. Students' knowledge of history is inconsistent.
Has anyone used hexagonal thinking as a summative assessment. If so, how did it go?
I've been following @Mr_Rablin's work for a while now. This will be my next assessment themed read! His ideas work well with #bced's pedagogical direction.

I'm looking to create a Social Justice 12 project on civil disobedience as a mechanism for change. I do want to integrate MLK's "Letter from Birmingham Jail." Do any teachers have some other recommended resources/texts?

As a #canucks fan, highlights from the past 3 days. 1. Jack Edward’s, the worst pbp announcer, retires. 2. #TaylorSwift releases an album, and hours later doubles the tracks available. 3. John Shorthouse, one of the finest pbp announcers, will call the Canuck playoff games.
Looks like the #Coyotes are leaving for Salt Lake City. Gotta say of all the people impacted, I feel for the staff in the organisation. The folks who worked behind the scenes in the office or community who now face the prospect of uprooting their families or losing their jobs.
@MrBlairsClass Twitter in the early days was absolutely inspirational and transformed so much of my assessment practice. I agree that it has gone so downhill. People talk as if they know something about someone they have never met. It's rage farming and ego-feeding.
Who knew in this hyper inflated and commodified housing market I would find so many options...I seem to live rent free in a few minds right now! 🤣 I can't tell you how excited I am to collect these tweets for lessons after Spring Break. The topics are endless!
