Reboot the Noggin - 2021 New Year's Welcome Back HyperDoc

 

Learn to Create - Create to Learn

I love being an educator and I am always excited to return to school after a break, but for some reason don't think most of my students always feel the same way. In an effort to reconnect with my students after a break, I like to do something more than just review for our final exam or jump right into new content. 

Today I wanted to share a HyperDoc designed to help students reflect on 2020 and set goals for 2021. 

Feel free to make a copy of of the document and modify it for your students. I will also share my updated "One Word" 2021 HyperDoc soon.

Year in Review - 2020 Resources for Teachers and Students

 

I always welcome back my students to the New Year with several activities connected to the events, stories, and trends from the previous year. The goal is to reflect and make connections to our learning experiences. Here are some resources connected to 2020 in review. 
I will continue to update this list as I discover new resources. Feel free to share any resources or ideas in the comments below. Please come back and check the updates if you are looking for something more over the next couple of weeks.

I've also posted our 2021 One Word HyperDoc Activity and our Reboot the Noggin - 2021 New Year's Welcome Back Activity this week. Educators are  welcome to copy and modify these for their own students.

Recommended Books for Remote, Online and Distance Learning

The best educators are not content to do the same old thing year after year. Innovative educators push their thinking by engaging in social mediaexploring blogs, attending conferences, and exploring the newest educational books.

We've created a Recommended Educational Book Site to organize and share some great books connected to teaching and learning. We are currently working on updating a new section for Online Learning.


Today I am recommending a book connected to our new world of online learning written by one of my favorite educators, John Spencer.

Embedding Google Drawings in HyperDocs and Interactive Digital Activities

 

Google Drawings has become one of most important tools in Remote Learning Toolbox. I've always thought that I've done a lot with Docs, Forms, and Slides, but Drawings was something that I never utilized as much as I could. 

These posts share a few examples of how I've used Google Drawings with my students this year. 

In todays post I want to focus on how I am using Google Drawings embedded in Google Docs to create HyperDocs and Interactive Activities for remote learning. While my focus is on Earth Science and the Environment right now, I think these ideas could be adapted for any content area or grade level.
