A4: I am excited to use more technology that will keep me up to date with how my students are doing in real time. Guide the learning and teaching throughout the class. #sdedchat

A3: Some stations can focus on reviewing old material while the teacher teaches new material to another group. Able to cover more material at one time. #sdedchat

A2: Working with others provides so many more ideas. I always get stuck in one mind set so talking it over with other teachers helps open the door to new thinking. #sdedchat

Question stems can help students to think for themselves and move up to higher levels of Blooms. #sdedchat

@Mr_Headrick All of these sound very interesting and I cannot wait to dive into them and learn more about it.

A3: I feel that I would need to practice this strategy more before I am ready to teach/help another person. Really practicing and separating those things would help me. #sdedchat

A2: Pairing my 4th graders with other 4th graders from a school in a different part of the country would work well with social studies so they can learn about a different part of our country. #sdedchat

A1: Pairing students thoughtfully and giving them the necessary tools to succeed. Training them so that they can meet necessary goals while still learning with they partner. #sdedchat

A1: Agree!!! I think even as adults we like to have visuals when we are learning something new so we should expect that our students would need them too! #sdedchat

A3: DI gives students time to think and analyze what they are learning. They can learn from their peers and provide feedback to the teacher. Students can have a voice in their learning. Lecture seems to be a teacher talks and students listen type of scenario. #sdedchat

A4: I teach 4th grade math and typically I have the students use individual white boards during direct instruction and then circulate around to check for understanding. Excited to try some of the other tech tools I have heard about through this class! #sdedchat

A5: Using technology during direct instruction allows students who would normally be shy to demonstrate what they know. Teachers can interact with students in real time and gauge what they know before moving on. #sdedchat

A5: I think that is can be time consuming but knowing that in the end it will pay off for the students and you that it will be worth it! Then in the next years you can change the questions and they can only get better! #sdedchat

A4: I have used cold calling in my classroom but mostly on students who are not engaged and who I know probably know the answer. I think it can be effective if you know your students well and know which ones dread answering questions in class and which ones can do it! #sdedchat

A3: I need to work on this next year! I think planning these questions prior to the lesson will really help to get my student to the next level of thinking. Connecting questions to real life situations will help also. #sdedchat

A2: Practice, Practice, Practice! Instilling the procedures and rules early in the year and setting down strict ground rules for the rotation model is key. Giving students resources to go to with questions before they go to the teacher. #sdedchat

A1: Working with a supportive group of teachers that you can go to with questions and celebrate the successes with. These teachers will also help to improve failures and provide feedback on how to improve. #sdedchat
