A8: One thing that I'd like to do is leave time for more revision with student writing. Revision is an important part of the writing process. #engsschat

Q8: What’s one change you'll make next year based on what you've learned about helping students transition this year? What can we do to help students academically? Socially or emotionally? #engsschat

Wow, this time has flown by. Our final question of the night is coming up!

A7: Talking to colleagues about how to support students through these transitions is essential. Counselors are able to have conversations about post-secondary steps. #ensschat

A5: Endings are hard. We have a lot of senior activities to celebrate the end of the year. My favorite is post-secondary day where they wear shirts to signify schools, programs, and careers they will take on next. #engsschat

Q5: How do you make space for students to say goodbye, whether to each other, to the content, or to the year itself? What does your school community do, or what do you wish they did? #engsschat

Q5 is coming up. Let’s get ready to talk about endings. #engsschat

A4: Especially with juniors and seniors, I hope that they learn how to balance their time, set goals and deadlines, and understand that they can achieve so much. #engsschat

A4: I want students to believe in their skills. They are writers, speakers, readers, and listeners. They are capable of so much. #engsschat

My seniors end the year delivering special occasion speeches. They pick the real-life occasion and give a speech to the audience of their choice. #engsschat

My juniors write the I-Search, which is a research paper about their future. They give presentations about what they've learned. It's awesome to hear about their growth. #engsschat

Q3: What assignments, projects, or activities help students reflect on their growth over the year? What do you do to celebrate endings and help students prepare for next steps? #engsschat

Let’s keep the learning going with Q3! #engsschat

A2: For Ss nervous about what’s next, I normalize those feelings, share my own experiences, and help them focus on what they can control. I also like to quote Beyoncé about her feelings of nervousness. Nerves are a good thing and mean we care. #engsschat

Q2: Transitions can be tough. How do you support students who are nervous or unsure about what comes next, whether it’s a new grade, school, or post-high school path? #engsschat

Let’s keep the conversation going and transition to Q2! #engsschat

A1: I also have students write letters to me. They reflect on what they learned, what they remember most about the class, and leave advice for future students. #engsschat

submitted 13 days ago • 0 comments

A1: A strong finish means giving students time to reflect, feel proud, and recognize how far they’ve come. I wrap up with activities like “Letters to My Future Self” and peer tribute speeches. Every student gets a chance to reflect and hear kind words from a peer about them. #engsschat

Q1: As we approach the end of the year (or just finished), how do you wrap up the year with your students? What does "a strong finish" mean to you, and how do you help students achieve this? #engsschat

I'm co-leading a book study this summer using the book Active Learning Online by Stephen Kosslyn, so we thought we'd create a podcast for each chapter. Listen to the latest episode, "What is Active Learning?" #teachersofbluesky #scienceoflearning open.spotify.com/episode/3KYs...
