YouTube
I've been a few rooms this week watching students do some great learning! I video taped some 8th graders reciting their WW I and WW II Poem for Two Voices. I was also in 8th grade ELA and caught a few students performing their own piece of poetry. Check them out on YouTube and at the links below.
I found the things below and thought you might be interested!
Let me know how I can help you!

Wonderopolis
If you don't know Wonderopolis, now you do! It is a site for kids that asks a question each day and the answer to that question. I've had kids use this for their genius project in different classrooms! This entry is a good one about homework!
Levels of Engagement
This visual helps us remember the different levels of engagement. I know I've talked with people about those kids who want to do "just enough." This might help us move them up to the next level.
