States Interactive
Visiting the States
Greetings Sequoyah, 

One of my favorite visuals has been updated. Visit https://www.gasfoodnolodging.com/visitedstates/us-canada/ click on the states you have visited and create a map. Various colors show amount of time spent in each state too. This is a fun activity in class and can be used with a variety of curricular settings.

Thanks and don't forget to be awesome, 

Andy

The Mission Statement
A Vision for You
Greetings Sequoyah, 

On the #oklaed twitter Sunday night the first question was on the mission of the school. It was a very interesting conversation. Search out the #oklaed hashtag on tweetdeck for a recap. There is a digest published online but I can not find it at this time. 

Our mission at Sequoyah is published on our website at http://sequoyah.edmondschools.net/our-school/mission/ be sure to take a look when time allows. How do we implement our mission in the classroom on a regular basis? 

Thanks and don't forget to be awesome, 

Andy

Gamify
Changing the Game
Greetings Sequoyah, 

Driving in this morning the radio station KOSU was talking about Gamifying the upcoming elections. One of the candidates has implemented gaming techniques into the process. Pretty neat stuff to see things we are talking about in education put into practice in the everyday world.

John Hattie
Visible Learning
Greetings Sequoyah, 

With concerns on class size it was explained to me that Hattie sees it  really as a non-starter on student achievement. The overall added value on reduced class size is minimal compared to other factors. I found the list of factors demonstrating empirically greater contribution in learning. Granted many of the teaching strategies on the list are much easier to integrate into the classroom as class size is diminished.

Take a look at http://visible-learning.org/hattie-ranking-influences-effect-sizes-learning-achievement/
