Clackamas County says the farm house was built in 1912. It's a good bet that the barn was built before the house, making it a century-old structure. Jason Faucera, a District conservation and information technology specialist, is also a fine photographer. We know this because he wins ribbons at

About a year ago, I discovered STEM. It’s a fantastic way of integrating Science, Technology Engineering and Math. In my school district, we have a new curriculum which has a component calle
Benchmark Advance is a brand-new, comprehensive English Reading/Language Arts program. The program is built to address key shifts in curriculum and instruction to meet the demands of the new standards. Rigorous, integrated reading, writing, speaking, and listening instruction meets the needs of districts implementing a reading collaborative, balanced approach, or workshop model, and enables all students to master rigorous learning goals with strong resources for differentiated instruction and responsive teaching based upon ongoing assessments. While the program itself is incredibly rigorous, as I implemented the product within my students, I noticed that it lacked some supplemental resources. Within this product you will find ALL of the student objectives (created in poster format) and a supplemental resource addressing the following areas: Unit Introduction, Build and Reflect, Short Read 1, Short Read 2, Extended Read 1, Extended Read 2, Writing to Sources, Word Study. Additionally, posters have been created to address the unit's domain-specific and academic vocabulary for each week, as well as the spelling words. Everything has been clearly labeled for easy and immediate implementation. Print as needed (e.g., whole-class instruction, small group instruction/Daily 5) or print all and create your own students' practice books! Do note that the only thing not included is assessment, as I feel that the program has created sufficient assessment opportunities to apply within the students. After downloading, please don't forget to write a fair review. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask!
Whether your district is rolling out more technology into the classroom or you simply are just working on increasing the use of technology in class, this is a MUST have for any teacher! Year after year, I find myself teaching students shortcuts to save time on their assignments. Shortcuts for things like printing, saving a document, and the big one....knowing how to UNDO something when it accidentally gets deleted! With this download, you will have access to various worksheets students can practice their keyboard shortcut skills on! Also included is a fun I Have, Who Has...? task card review game! Purchase Includes: - 1 keyboard shortcut quick cheat sheet visual - 3 pages (16 questions) of situational prompts (What if you want to zoom out on a page?) where students fill in what shortcut they would use - 2 cut and paste activities reviewing shortcuts - 1 word search with key words - 1 crossword puzzle with key words - I have, who has task card game. Great for review!
The Piano and Violin building, built in 2007, serves as a showroom for displaying plans for the newly created district of Shannan in Huainan City, China. The transparent Violin section houses escalators and staircases, while the main Piano building displays various plans and development prospects for the area. The building was designed by Hefei University of Technology and built to a scale of 50:1.
About a year and a half ago, my district went 1:1 with technology. It's definitely exciting, but for those who aren't technology savy, it can be overwhelming! Google Classroom is a great place to share links, post announcements, assign assignments, and much more. It the past, the use of Google Classroom was limited to those who were known as a Google School. That is no longer the case! What does that mean for you? If you have a Google account, you can now set up your own Google Classroom. The only thing that you need to do beforehand is to check into your district's pooicy on creating Google user names for your students (my own recommendation). I use Google Classroom on a daily basis. I can't lie, I still do a lot of paper/pencil activities, but I provide about as much technology activities as paper/pencil. If you are just getting started, or if you are like me and have been using Google Classroom for awhile, there is always something to learn. So, I'm sharing my newest Google Classroom hacks in hopes you might learn something new as well! 1. Turn off Comments I teach 3rd grade. At this point, I don't need my students to be making comments on every thread. I have a lot of "hi Mrs. Neal" or "cool" that pops up. You can turn off the comment feature and turn it back on during certain times if you need to. Here's how: 1. Go to Settings 2. Notifications and turn comment off there. 2. Add Topics for Quick Links This hack is one that isn't necessarily used how it may have been designed, but it is how I use it and is perfect for what I need it for. There are certain websites that I want my students to have access to when needed. Yes, I can have them "bookmark" them, but this hack seems to be more effective for them. I create an announcement, add the link, then create a topic. Once that topic is created, it is available on the lefthand side of the class. Very handy, and students know exactly where to find the link. 3. Assign from Google Drive How many of you have documents stored within Google Drive? This is one of the best parts and something that I do ALL the time. Assign students something that I have created. No more making copies, simply share the assignment/project/prompt with students digitally. No only is it easy for me, it prevents students from losing their work! 4. Locating Student Work in Google Drive When I first started using Google Classroom and I wanted to share a file with my students, I did just that. I went into my Google Drive, found the file, clicked share, copied the link, and added it to Google Classroom as an announcement. When I did that, I then had to have my students share the file with me. Then, I received an email from every one of my students saying that they shared the file. The list of things that I had to do after that just kept growing. Once I figure out to create an "assignment" (see number 3) things became soooo much easier. To top it off, it became so very easy to locate the assignment that I wanted to see from my students. When you create an assignment for students, a specific folder is created within the "Classroom" folder within your Google Drive. This makes it super easy to locate the assignment and individual work. 5. Popular Apps that Integrate with Google Classroom Here is a list of my own "popular" websites that integrate with Google Classroom. What does it mean when they integrate? It means that you don't have to input each of your students individually into a roster. Once you sign in and connect your own Google account, students can then sign in and use their Google account to connect with you. No more requiring students to input a code or scan a QR code. Google connects you all! 1. Pear Deck: Student connects with your presentation, answer your own interactive questions, and learn from their peers. 2. Kahoot!: A fun interactive game to introduce new topics or review topics. 3. SeeSaw: A student-driven portfolio 4. Flipgrid: A social learning platform. 5. Quizizz: Similar to Kahoot!, but students work at their own pace. If you're looking for Google Math Resources, go no further! Be sure to check out these resources! Hopefully, you have learned at least one new hack. Google on my friends! Follow me here: Teaching With Simplicity Pinterest Facebook Instagram Teachers Pay Teachers

Don’t you just hate it when you finally get the hang of a reading or math program, and your district (or admin) decide it’s time to start using something new? I mean you’d think they’d know better than to mess with a teacher’s software… When that happened at my school, we were told to “trust the process” The only problem with that is that while the “process is going on”, we’re in the trenches having to figure out how to make things work. When my school first switched to i-Ready, it took me a while to get the hang of it. But after a few months, I figured out a system that worked well for ME + MY KIDDOS So, if you’re feeling frustrated, just like I was in the beginning, please know that YOU•ARE•NOT•ALONE! Hopefully, by the end of this post, you’ll have a few new ideas to get you started. The first step is to set up student folders You’ll need a folder for each student, printed iReady labels, and a copy of the iReady student recording sheet.
