Virtual Field Trips and Some Other Things

Tracy (my teaching partner this year) and I decided to do "Travel Tuesdays" and take kids on virtual field trips each week. I tweeted about this and several teachers asked for more information. Basically, what we are going to do is find live or recorded virtual field trips to share with our kids. To make it a shared experience we will have students log into our live Meet then I will present my screen and share the field trip. That way students can comment in the chat to ask questions. We can share what we learned afterward. Then students will blog about what they learned. This addresses social studies, science, and writing standards. This Tuesday we are going to Mystery Doug's house . We will be selecting a California State Park field trip (they are doing them live for different grade levels each day). These are limited to 500 participants a day for each grade level band and they are only allowing you to sign up for one field trip at the moment. Thei...

Substitute Binder: What and Why?

the beginning of the new school year, I thought I would offer this resource to others who may find it useful for their own classes. It took a while because I was missing steps but I finally figured out how to create each page as an editable form in Adobe Reader. Download what you would like to use for your own class. (It would be cool if you would let me know how it works for you.) I don't know about many of you, but I was a substitute teacher for 3 years before I became a full-time classroom teacher. I was in classrooms where everything was laid out for me, where things were generally spelled out - with some guesswork involved, and in rooms where there was nothing but a box of stuff and a post-it that said, "Good luck!" ( Yes, really! ) I quickly found out what I thought I really did or did not need when walking into a classroom. In an attempt to help the guest teachers in my room I always left very detailed plans. I would use the same skeleton and fill in the bl...

A Letter to Parents

I haven't written in a long time. I always promise to write more and to share more but then there never seems to be enough time. There is always so much going on. With all that we are dealing with right now with the COVID-19 situation I am having a hard time, my students, are having a hard time, and so are their parents. This isn't what we planned for our year together. It isn't how any of envisioned this year. But here we are. I wrote something to our parents and I felt so strongly about it that I decided that maybe others would find it resonates with them too. I cross-posted this on my blog and on the collaborative blog ( Spot On in Third ) that I share with two other teachers. Dear Parents, Things are getting harder. Emotions are raw, for the kids and the adults. We know. We feel the same way. We miss you. We miss our classroom. We miss our routines. We are going to make the best of this situation for as long as we need to. It isn't ideal but it is what we have...
