Tried #EMC2Learning Track Attack, think Mario Kart but as a board game, my students were engaged in reviewing their multiplication strategies, students liked being able to choose what gear to be in each turn (hint: we used dice to track the gears) @mrmatera.bsky.social @meehanedu.bsky.social #edusky

Ease back into the classroom after the holiday break. Wild Unicorn is so fun and engaging for all learners & is a great way to review content! You prob have nearly everything you need to play in your classroom already!

So excited to chat with amazing educator, author and friend, @mrmatera.bsky.social.
Tune in as we chat w/ @mrmatera.bsky.social about the joys & challenges of moving from a "frictionless" learning environment to embrace novelty & active engagement in the classroom. Active recall > passive lectures = sticky learning. #RTAlliance #edusky #gamification #emc2learning

Been sick for two days, but #Eduprotocols saved me a trip to the classroom to prep sub plans. Fast & Curious, #mathreps and Sketch &Tell summaries are magic for subs & no prep for me. @eduprotocols.bsky.social @jcorippo.bsky.social @nowatechie.bsky.social

Introduced our novel that takes place during medieval times & the Ss made quick #Sketchnotes about the feudal power structure. Created my own version of an #EDUProtocol to practice short answer responses using the RACE model. #Edusky @eduprotocols.bsky.social @carriebaughcum.bsky.social

Loved playing around with fall themed Poker Chip Chase & Station2Station right before we left for break. Ss engaged in playful competition while getting all synapses firing. They worked so hard analyzing 3 articles from our #Storyworks magazine. Thank you #emc2learning #gamification
