I don't know why FritosLays is doing but they've successfully infiltrated the breakfast market of my middle schoolers.
Just asked GPT-4 if a passage submitted by my student is likely to have been written by GPT3.5
This is basically the Terminator 2 of trying to catch students not doing their homework.

So we're at a party, writing creative stories using GPT and we just found an edge of how the creator's politics can effect it. Kind of dystopian...
It kind of shows how important it's going to be to regulate it and consider its bias

I'd love to hear other's thoughts and ideas for how I could use it in my classroom!

.@classcraftgame is pretty good, but it's really annoying that they hide the analytics behind a school license... like I already had to get cash for a premium account, but they have to gatekeep a really critical part of their program behind an even bigger pay wall

Like @classcraftgame doesn't even offer a higher tier for teacher licenses to see data. It really weakens it as a behavior management system. OTOH, @ClassDojo, which has data for free, is missing a lot of fun features. Ugh. I wish there was more competition.

I like to dress professionally for parent-teacher conferences week. Here's Tuesday-me and Wednesday-me.

I love resources like this!
If you're looking for simple team-building classroom games with no tech and absolutely no prep, here are my top 8️⃣ activities! This is the video I made with my students to help teach other teachers... 😀youtube.com/watch?v=LrfSMG_p… #teachers #teachersoftwitter #edchat #teachertwitter

Made some minor updates to Settlers of America. This game is still great to play with students to review causes of the Revolution. Play in PPT! docs.google.com/presentation… Scoresheet: docs.google.com/spreadsheets… #sschat
Unpacking my classroom is like a scavenger hunt themed escape room set by a riddler desperate for summer vacation.
Like "where would an absolute madman have placed my speakers? Oh of course, here inside the bookshelf under the bathroom passes"

Someone asked me why I wear LGBTQ+ pride so readily on my sleeve. (Often literally because I own several Rainbow or Pink/Blue Flagged T-Shirts, but also in the way I post on social media or mark it in my email signature.)

I'm always so happy when ex-students visit me because honestly it's the best feeling in the world to know how their stories have continued past my classroom. I had 4 visit this month and they were such a huge pick-me-up right when I needed it.

This doc has some amazing resources! RTing for visibility and so that I can keep track of it.
✨✨ Created this doc with my EdTeach Team, full of all the learning nuggets from #CUE22 to share with our Teachers! ✨✨ S/O to @historysandoval @elizaldericardo @MarisaEThompson @JenRoberts1 and SO MANY MORE!! docs.google.com/document/d/1…
Hey @MrRoughton and other #historyteacher people that like gaming. If you haven't checked out "The Forgotten City" yet, it's a really fun game set in the Roman Era and a really well executed concept. Beautiful, really well-made game.

I had a problem with students drawing on desks, so I put tape on the desks and invited their art instead.
Check out the amazing custom desktop one of them made me :D
Creative flexibility can really be key to redirecting middle schoolers!
