Quarantined Classes

The YouTube channel I created with my colleague, Meg Chandler, i.spiration e.ducation, is on it’s 30th episode! This episode highlights the new era of online learning for teachers, given COVID-19. I hope you find this, and future posts, helpful as we all continue to educate in a world of social distancing.

Big Boy #4014

This weekend Union Pacific’s Big Boy No. 4014 visited my town, Tucson, AZ. Taken from the Union Pacific webpage, No. 4014 began operation on December 1941. The locomotive was retired in December 1961, having traveled 1,031,205 miles in its 20 years in service. In 2013, No. 4014 began its multi-year restoration process. It returned to […]

New YouTube Channel!

A colleague and I are SUPER EXCITED to announce our very first vlog, i.nspiration e.ducation. The link to our first post is below in which we take you on a journey with nine high school students and one very large waterfall! We also discuss the rationale behind i.nspiration e.ducation. Our goal is to publish one […]

High School Field Trip to the Pima County Adult Detention Complex

This year I started teaching government to our seniors at Desert Christian High School. I thought, “What better way for my students to understand civic duty, the roles and responsibilities of our local police, and the repercussions for not obeying the law than to take them to our local jail?” With that question in mind, […]

A Semester-Long Project by “DJ Justin”

This year I decided to try something new (no shock there) with my US History students. As I have done in the past, I wanted to create a semester-long project with multiple check points – in “teacher speak” we call these formative assessments – rather than a standard, summative assessment. What I changed was the […]

i.e. 37. Legacy and Life Lessons of Girl's Trip (link in bio) Have you ever wondered, "What is the origin story of i.nspiration e.ducation?!" It was born out of a journey lovingly referred to as Girl's Trip. This very special episode reunites trip alumni from the past 15 years, where they reflect on the impact this unique and incredible trip has had on their lives. Come be a part of this intimate and joyful discussion and be prepared to be inspired and encouraged! #teachersofinstagram #teacherlife #pedagogy #bestjobever #bestpracticesineducation #girlstrip #expeditionarylearning

But seriously though. I was on a massive struggle bus. How do you create the words "in our" with cups in a chain link fence? Baaaahahaaaa! #worthit #classof2020 #teachersofinstagram #teacherlife #wearedcs

Teachers! We have been doing a spectacular job by going to distance learning literally overnight! Now that we've had time to reflect, we have assessed and discovered a tremendous need to be filled. This episode is part 3 of a special series focused on accommodations and modifications for the online and/or distance learning environment. Students who lack executive functioning skills are so used to feeling lost, so used to giving up, so used to being told they can't measure up. They require frequent feedback and positive talk; a humanization of their distance-learning experience. And when they enter the online classroom, all they see are the mounds of tasks! Perform some of the executive functioning for your kids by helping them to move the proverbial brick wall by handing them work, brick by brick. We offer in this episode practical examples on how to structure distance learning with your atypical learners in mind, whether it be finishing out the school year, or in anticipation of a blended learning in the future. We also challenge you to take the time tomorrow to remove the "distance" from distance learning and reach out to that one kid you know needs to hear from you! #teachersofinstagram #teacherlife #pedagogy #bestjobever #bestpracticesineducation #iep #504 #specialeducation #distancelearning #elearning #onlinelearning #covid_19 #coronavirus #education #educators

i.e. 35. Accommodation or Modification (Part 2)? (Link in bio) This week's episode focuses on teacher planning and implementation. When parents of kids with learning disabilities drop off their kids in the morning, they wonder, "Are they understood?" 'Are they cared for?" "Are they learning?" Set up your students for success from the very beginning! If we as teachers could go in prepped and planned, we can bring down the giant wall of anxiety these students face every single day. This episode also highlights key hang ups for common disability types, and remind us to reach out to understand our students: to know them and build trust with them. Let them know that, "I've got your back back, I had you in mind." Every single one of our kids are different. It is our job to make sure that what we want them to know is accessible! #teachersofinstagram #teacherlife #pedagogy #bestjobever #bestpracticesineducation #iep #504 #specialeducation #modificationsforclass #accommodations #ADD #ADHD #autisim #autisimawareness

i.e. 34. Student Interview Project (link in bio) This project was not an easy feat, but they made it their own and far exceeded expectations! Social history emphasizes the interaction of different groups in society. This concept began in the 1960s and initially focused on disenfranchised social groups, but later began to focus more attention on the middle and upper classes. The US History students of 2019/20 have not only gained a deep understanding of a portion of history through their interviews, but they have also provided a public service via the publication of their interviews. For example, this project will serve as a primary source database for use by future students, community members, and even researchers around the world! #teachersofinstagram #socialhistory #history #studentinterviews #educators #pedagogy #interviewproject #oralhistory

i.e. 33. Accommodation or Modification (Part One)? link in bio What is the difference between an accommodation and a modification? Chan and Mrs. T bring in an expert to explain the difference between the two. There is so much good information here that we had to divide it into three sections. Part three will explain how to accommodate or modify for today's online classroom! #teachersofinstagram #teacherlife #pedagogy #bestjobever #bestpracticesineducation #educators #education #modifications #accommodations #iep #504 #specialeducation

Let me try to explain the emotions I am going through as I review my student's interviews for their social history project. It is clear that they've not only learned history from a primary source, but they were in charge of what they learned. These stories have made me cry, laugh, gasp in disbelief, bubble over with pride, made me angry, and caused me to momentarily stop breathing. These interviews range from experiences in war, to being a victim of abuse, to the Civil Rights Movement. My student's questions were professional, thought provoking, engaging, and empathetic. Be prepared for 35 interviews by high school students of people within the DCS community to be available for you to watch soon. You'll need a box of tissues. #teachersofinstagram #socialhistory #interviews #highschoolstudents #highschoolreacher #education #lifelonglearning #history

My dog, Roxy, was the star of the show today. She helped make a sad day of packing up my room a little brighter. ♡♡♡

i.e. 32. 25 Ways to Manage Mental Health for the Unplanned, Online Classroom (#20 Might Shock You) (link in bio) Teachers and students did not sign up for online learning! Do you find yourself struggling with our "new normal" of online teaching? Chan and Mrs. T interview their school counselor and offer you 25 concrete takeaways to help you and your students manage this unplanned and uncertain time. As you watch, commit to walking away with one takeaway and putting it into practice! #teachersofinstagram #teacherlife #pedagogy #educators #highschoolteacher #mentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness #elearning #onlinelearning #distancelearning #covid_19 #coronavirus
