  • Toney’s Microsoft Education Hack the Classroom “I Am Change” talk - youtube.com/watch?v=JmHAOseuhkQ
  • "I am not the best teacher in the world. And I won’t claim to be something I've never been. But I can say with absolute certainty, that every year I am the best teacher that I've ever been.  I have never been more certain. I see what doesn’t work and put the work in to get it working. I’m not perfect, but still it’s worth it to change what’s beyond the surface. But what if I never changed?"
  • Dr. Maya Angelou’s quote “Do the best you can until you know better and then, when you know better, do better.”
  • “Being the change takes practice.  Not the kind that you do until it’s perfect.  The kind that you do because it’s worth it.”

• 2 Truths & 1 Lie
• Question #1: How can you communicate classroom routines and expectations so students grasp key concepts but also are active participants in the process? (Audience Submitted Question - Matthew Meyer)
  • Tony’s Strategy:
    • 1st - Class Brain Dump/Brainstorming
    • 2nd - students sort the items in Google Drawings, goal to have 4-8 “essential agreements.”
    • 3rd - Typorama app, Word Swag app → save as png file → cut on Cricut
      • Cricut - cricut.com
      • Typorama - apps.apple.com/us/app/typorama-text-on-photo-editor/id978659937
    • 4th - playing on loop on a classroom TV or display
    • 5th - posted on website
    • 6th - Essential agreements referenced on the form used for when students break the essential agreements.

• Question #2: How can we help our students get to know their new classmates?
  • Selfie Activity
  • Tony’s Activity:
    • Google Slides, side profile picture, create a silhouette, add images of things that they like
    • After kids presented their slides, they were looped on the class TV and then the students reflected on all of them to find commonalities
    • Those commonalities led to a class branding: Pixel Paws
    • Class Website, with logo: pixelpaws.us
