@padgets Helps me balance - make sure I am differentiating and helps me pace appropriately - weed out stuff. It is great! #edchat
@padgets I give students learning targets and "what is looks like," which is where I get my assessment questions from. Kids love it. #edchat
@lovedrummin Love it! Have kids in class ask to look up stuff on Cha-cha- all the time. Doesn't help them apply it though. #edchat
Kids aren't natives in Tech they are residents. Residency has no age. Old & young can get beyond visitation and reside. Leadership! #Edchat

Replying to @iMrsHughes
@cspiezio Agreed. Changing the label is semantics.Teachers need to be honest about the fact that some in our profession are not very good.
