Things got 🌶️🔥 during this review! Ss solved mild, medium & hot leveled questions and if correct, covered up squares.

Did you tackle the hot ones 🥵?
Earned more spaces to cover!

😈Best part? Once the board fills, they could erase another team's. #RISDDreamOn @RISDmath

With Freeform, Ss can use Scenes for each problem, access colors for steps, & I can project their work for others.

🌟BONUS? For math, the infinite thinking canvas is huge. Infinite space + @formative instant feedback makes these days some of my favorite. #RISDDreamOn #AppleEDU

Love that our @RichardsonHS1 math Ss can investigate in Desmos while accessing their color-coded notes in @NotabilityApp! Ss can see their vocab come to life & choose how they want to connect concepts.

🤩My fav? Use the Tape feature as a study tool! #RISDDreamOn #AlwaysAnEagle

Dual Credit students at @RichardsonHS1 got to dive into arc length! We started in Freeform comparing paths then used Apple Classroom to view everyone's ideas together, explored copper wires in an "arc" reactor, & worked problems at our vertical surfaces. #AppleEDU #RISDDreamOn

Twas the night before 1st Grade 🥲 Thank you @BowieMustangs for the little things like a personal bedtime story. Scanned a code from our "Meet the Teacher" and got to listen to the sweetest book.

We are ready for tomorrow! #RISDDreamOn #RISDBeTheOne

I'm grateful for such a detailed program to ensure we are ready to support our Eagles in their new environment. 🚀Ready to take student learning to a whole new level! #AppleLearningCoach #AppleEDU

When you model in math, you HAVE to bring 🍬candy! After @rwestjh explored a modeling @GetSchoolAI Space, Ss measured height & span for linear, linked cubes for quadratics, & watched their Skittles "decay". Ss shared their analysis in an @AppleEDU Keynote workbook. #AppleEDU

@NumWorks @LarsLondot

I can now create ✨ANYTHING between pages in @canva! Perfect to brainstorm a unit, chunk projects and create templates for students, curating social media graphics, and making multi-modal professional learning. #CanvaEDU

Watching the Artemis II successful landing and can't help but see all the ways logarithms can make it possible! 🚀🌕🚀🌍

We start evaluating logs & exploring properties on Monday with my Algebra 2 kids. Baby steps, right? Any words of advice for the future Gen, @NASA?

@MrWilliamssings This! It's aligning best practices with the authentic connection we have with our students. It's the "art" part of teaching.

🤔🌎"Why does this matter?" "Where would I see this?" Ss in Alg2 partnered to interview career fields that use rational equations w @GetSchoolAI and shared out in a collaborative @CanvaEdu Whiteboard (💕Sort feature). #RISDDreamBig

Shuffle cards for roles & watch them go!🙌

I'm so excited! 🤩 Did you know that @GetSchoolAI has a Chrome Extension now?

@kelseytcooper I bet this session will be 🔥🔥🔥 #TCEA

"Let them" Classroom Edition! @rwestjh Ss presented and solved tasks together, asked each other questions, and worked through so many misconceptions by asking each other "Why did you..." #RISDDreamBig

@LarsLondot Nice! 🤜💥🤛

Oh Google Chrome, you know how to make this season ❄️😊"merry and bright" with new updates! Projects, planning, creating just got smoother. My multitasking heart just grew 💚💚💚.

We wrapped our semester of Algebra 2 at @rwestjh with some folding of "wrappers" to discover parabolas and an investigation in @Desmos to identify relationships between features. My math 💙🧡 is so FULL!

Ambiguous formulas? ❌NOPE!
Reasoning and visualize? ✔️YES! #RISDDreamBig

Complete the Square is my 🤩FAV! @rwestjh Alg 2 discovered the algorithm through hands on tiles in groups. We used⏱️Time Lapse on the iPad to record and quickly watch multiple examples to find the pattern. Drop in a #Schoology Media Album for ALL to see. #RISDDreamBig @AppleEDU

Love seeing a good digital breakout with #GoogleSheets in @RichardsonHS1 World History!
⚡Instant feedback
👥 Students talking content and making connections
🎃 "Spirited" fun
#risddreambig @RISDSocStu

@CoachTPearce @RHS_Spotlight @RichardsonHS1 @IamBranum Yes! #EaglesElevate

Students in @MsKMath's AVID 2 class got to explore different careers through a curated @GetSchoolAI Space! They started w their interest to find options or could jump right in to explore salaries and what education is required. #ThisIsAVID @jeprincipal @RHSAVIDBrown @AVIDatRHS

@GetSchoolAI @rwestjh So fun! They asked about chefs w temps that vary, economists where stocks fluctuate, & athletes that have to keep equipment w/in acceptable ranges. A perfect hook! We even discussed interacting safely w AI & how there are prompt engineers NOW as careers. #AIinEducation #mtbos

Leveraging the power of @GetSchoolAI to compare 2️⃣ careers that use absolute value f(x)s! @rwestjh Ss looked for patterns, big ideas, & explored multiple perspectives. Loved using the "Space Creator" assistant to set up my task & add my depth/complexity questions. #risddreambig

My fav thing about reviewing?! GAMES & CHOICE! #RISDDreamBig

💰"Who wants to be..." w @genially where ALL rotate to the hot seat.
🤖 Use @schoolai + Cornell review to revisit topics. Upload your questions & work to reteach YOUR way.
🚀Get 80% on @Socrative to show readiness!

One of my ⭐️FAV things about #GoogleForms for a Warm Up? You get ⚡️INSTANT access to what they understand AND I know exactly where to do a quick reteach. #GoogleEDU

💡TIP: Turn your Form into a Quiz to get "Frequently missed questions" to find gaps at the top of your Responses.

Hands on day in Geometry PLC with @RHSmathisfun walking our new geometry team members through 📏✏️constructions! We love seeing Ts learning from each other and modeling💜💛🦅 @mrs_alireams @RISDmath #RISDDreamBig

@rwestjh Ss used Markup to show their thinking as they solved and set up a system of equations and then animated it to go step by step as they presented it to the class using Apple Classroom. @RISDmath @AppleEDU #RISDDreamBig

🤔So WHY learn matrices? 🌍WHO actually uses them? @rwestjh Adv Alg 2 students jumped "into the matrix" using an AI Space in @GetSchoolAI to ignite learning. @TLamberthAP

⭐️ TIP: Use your "Get to Know Me" survey from the 1st day in your AI prompt! #AIinEducation #risddreambig

That feeling running into your kids' PreK 4 teacher from @BowieMustangs & they want to say hi to your kid! 💙❤️

These Ts are INCREDIBLE & can't imagine a better experience for my family than RISD. Little bro is joining the Mustangs this year & can't wait! #RISDTWG #RISDDreamBig

@adeelorama @magicschoolai Oooo! A differentiation tool where you attach TEKS, a current lesson or task, describe how you want to differentiate (language, readiness, social preferences (single or group), grade level? Or an academic intervention tool?

@jmattmiller So many ways! 1️⃣@GetSchoolAI Spaces to explore concepts, tap into prior knowledge, & uncover misconceptions 2️⃣ @magicschoolai rooms for student questions in indep practice 3️⃣ AI to create collab, thinking tasks for Whipbooks 4️⃣ AI images for Ss to create their own word probs.

Loving getting to see Eagles up at Whipbooks with a quick non-curricular task to kick off their PreCalculus day. We 💛💜 seeing a #thinkingclassroom! Ss seeking reasoning, asking clarification from peers, and EXCITED.

@RISDmath @FranNikzad @mrs_alireams #RISDBeTheOne
