Kyair One of my favorite words and skills. During a busy school day, it could be easy to forget something that is not planned. If it is intentionally planned, then it is easier to remember and to know that it fits the lesson's content. #BmoreEdChat

Kyair Kim Butler Thank you Kim Butler! You're amazing always! #BmoreEdChat

Kyair Thank you so much! This was awesome and I love seeing some of these great connections. #BmoreEdChat

Special thanks for Kim Butler for hosting tonight and engaging us in a fun conversation! Truly, kudos to you! #BmoreEdChat fam, we hope you create an amazing end to your week and see you all soon!

#BmoreEdChat A1 Using guest speakers/experts to zoom in our visit to interact with our students. Began in 2013 with Mark Goodman virtually visiting my 80s class. Now it has turned into a collaboration effort between social studies & music.

Kim Butler That's a neat way to include those skills when needed. #BmoreEdChat

A3: One way is to intentionally plan engagement activities that purposefully connect to the lesson's content. #BmoreEdChat

#BmoreEdChat A3 Having fun! We have been fortunate the last few years to have the bilingual band Making Movies join us live in class. Student engagement level was off the charts. Here is a songwriting clip from this school year.

#BmoreEdChat A3 We have also hosted Evan Nicole Bell & Angelina Alexon to North White. Once again, our students enjoyed the interaction and learning about their careers & music. It was awesome to see the students excitement to work with them.

Kyair Bringing it back to the 'why' always helps with even adult learners. This engagement is great, but why are we talking about this? Why are we doing this? #BmoreEdChat

Kyair Love this question. History is FILLED with people who did whatever they could to learn to read and write- just looking at Bmore and Frederick Douglass. Showing students the history of education and why is has been withheld. Empower them! #bmoreedchat

Jevons Liu Kyair Love that! Do the students even realize you're throwing some psychology and philosophy into the mix? Way to hit a bunch of standards! #BmoreEdChat
