Hi , I hope you'll join me today. I'm going to discuss how I grade at the end of a semester by using a Google Form survey instead of the points in the gradebook. Can't attend?

I'm so grateful to all the amazing educators who have heavily invested in my daughter's success. She is headed to college, although has to live with her brother and sister off campus, to major in bio medical engineering. How did the school year go by so fast? Please Sign In and Tell Me How Things Are Going I always love to hear from you! Tell me how your end of year is going and what you need some support with. As we dash towards the finish line of this school year, it's time to power through these last 3 to 6 weeks with the same enthusiasm and creativity that you've brought to your classrooms all year long. 🔍 Reflect & Rejoice:- Student Voices: Have your students create a “Year in Review” TikTok-style video or a podcast episode reflecting on their year. It's a fun, tech-savvy way to review and celebrate! Use Canva or Flip
- Google Form Reflections: Create a Google Form and ask students to reflect on what they learned this year. Do you agree? What goals will this help you set for next year?
🎉 Celebrate Every Victory:- Digital Yearbook: Instead of traditional slides, how about a collaborative digital yearbook using Padlet? Include photos, quotes, and memorable projects from throughout the year. Also check out slidesyearbook.comfor how you can use Google Slides to design a year end wrap up book.
- Kudos Board: Set up a virtual kudos board where students and teachers can post thank you notes and shout-outs to each other, fostering a positive end to the school year. Use figjam.new or padlet.new!
📅 Look Ahead with Excitement:- Tech Goals: Less is more!! Using 1-3 tools really well wins over a basket of tools. Keep the pedagogy at the forefront. How will the tools you already use help you to give more students a voice?
- Summer PD Party: I have some summer PD sessions themed around emerging tech. Think of it as a festival of learning—casual, fun, and incredibly enriching. Can't wait to learn more with you this summer!
🚀 Final Thoughts:You've all done an incredible job this year, navigating challenges and transforming them into opportunities. As this school year ends, take pride in your resilience and creativity. Here's to ending strong and starting anew with even more passion and purpose!
