21 Ways to Check for Student Understanding - InformED La gestion de classe-Les privilèges Edit du 20/08/2016 : lifting du fichier + ajout de nouveaux privilèges ! Comme beaucoup d’entre vous aujourd’hui, j’utilise en classe des privilèges, que j’associe aux tampons Champion de copie que je mets dans le cahier du jour de mes élèves. Jusqu’à l’année dernière, j’utilisais tels quels les privilèges mis en ligne sur son blog par Charivari, mais mes élèves avaient proposé l’ajout de nouveaux privilèges. Je leur avais promis que je procéderai à ses ajouts pendant les vacances. J’ai profité de cette occasion pour donner à ces privilèges une mise en page plus personnelle, tout en ajoutant, en plus de ceux que mes élèves avaient suggéré, de petits nouveaux venant soit de moi, soit d’autres bloggeurs (Romy, Bruce Demaugé-Bost). Je vous les propose aujourd’hui ! Bien sûr, si vous avez d’autres idées de privilèges que vous penseriez amusants ou intéressants d’ajouter, n’hésitez pas à m’en faire part !
5 Common Mistakes that Will Lead to an Out-of-Control Classroom Guest post by Linda Kardamis at Teach 4 the Heart My first year teaching was not very pretty. I thought I knew how to manage a class, but I made some critical errors that left me in the situation every teacher dreads – standing in front of an out-of-control classroom. While I certainly don’t want to go back and repeat that first year, I’m very thankful for the lessons I learned. Effective classroom management can be challenging, but the key is to keep learning and growing. 5 Common Classroom Management Mistakes 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.

FERPA & Class Dojo This past school year, I considered moving away from my clip chart to using Class Dojo. I think what attracted me to it was the fact that it was instantaneous feedback based on student behavior. The kids in my class all had super cute avatars. Each time they did something well, I could give points to them. I could also remove points if there was an errant behavior. There would even be an alert ping...so, kids would look to the projector screen and see who gained/lost a point. That...has now changed I'm in several collaborative Facebook groups with teacher/bloggers across the country. The discussion continued from there. Of COURSE, I thought to myself...I used that app like a part time job last year. By LAW, parents can request any and ALL educational records of their child. In our district, parents are required to sign a form that includes asking permission for several different things at once.

How Teachers Can Motivate Students of Any Age iStock By Linda Flanagan Barry Schwartz laughs as he describes the little girl next door who suddenly dove into reading after a substitute teacher took over her elementary school classroom. For every book they read, recalls the Swarthmore College psychology professor, students received a point, which they later cashed in for prizes. The girl then started to read a book an hour. The only catch was that she picked her books based on the number of pages and type size, and “she couldn’t tell you anything about any of them,” he says. Schwartz shared this story about the binge-reading neighbor during a conference call with Yale University associate professor Amy Wrzesniewski explaining their research on motivation. They assumed that some combination of internal and external motives would lead to the most success, as measured by the officers’ willingness to stay beyond the five-year commitment to the Army and to graduate and become commissioned officers.

EBEP - Les comportements oppositionnels et provocateurs Cet article est un complément traitant d’une difficulté particulière parmi toutes celles potentiellement rencontrées et listées dans mon article Elèves à besoins éducatifs particuliers. Ça a été ma première véritable et grande claque à mon entrée dans le métier : mais où est passé le respect ? C’est la question que je me suis vite posée. Il ne suffit pas de demander (ou d’ordonner) pour qu’un élève fasse. Alors, bien encadrée que j’étais en tant que PES, on m’a dit « Mais non… ce n’est pas ça ! C’est peut-être le premier conseil que je pourrais donner : quand on sait qu’on va être confronté à cette situation, ou quand on sent que c’est déjà le cas, il est bon de prendre de la distance et d’analyser la situation. En éducation, on a tendance à enfermer les enfants dans des cases, notamment dans celles du genre, du milieu social ou encore du trouble. La posture et les signaux qu’on envoie Posture professionnelle Calme, maitrise et confiance en soi Ouf ? Eviter la confrontation Le regard
Privacy Concerns for ClassDojo and Other Tracking Apps for Schoolchildren Photo HUNTER, N.Y. — For better or for worse, the third graders in Greg Fletcher’s class at Hunter Elementary School always know where they stand. One morning in mid-October, Mr. Fletcher walked to the front of the classroom where an interactive white board displayed ClassDojo, a behavior-tracking app that lets teachers award points or subtract them based on a student’s conduct. On the board was a virtual classroom showing each student’s name, a cartoon avatar and the student’s scores so far that week. “I’m going to have to take a point for no math homework,” Mr. The program emitted a disappointed pong sound, audible to the whole class — and sent a notice to the child’s parents if they had signed up for an account on the service. ClassDojo is used by at least one teacher in roughly one out of three schools in the United States, according to its developer. ClassDojo does not seek explicit parental consent for teachers to log detailed information about a child’s conduct. Mr.
