Ice cream or mashed potatoes? Our art teacher @alysonvanvactor showed her students how to make fake food that won't melt under hot camera lighting! Way cool! #teachersofinstagram #wearedcs

Last week's outing with my photo class! ♡ #teachersofinstagram #teacherlife

i.nspiration e.ducation episode #14 is up! (link in bio) This episode of i.e. challenges our education colleagues to make their lesson plans memorable. In this case, our students are learning by wrestling! Our Bible teacher, Pastor Kyle, put his students in the shoes of Jacob (from the Bible) so that they could better understand what it was like for Jacob to wrestle with God all through the night. This specific lesson has been taught at our school for at least 15 years, and we guarantee every student who has ever attended remembers this lesson vividly!

The best part about being a teacher @desertchristianschools is loving the kids like your own. ♡♡♡♡ #wearedcs #teachersofinstagram

They called each other the night before. ;)

Super great day today! Took my mock trial teams to the @pima_county courthouse to watch the morning calendar and a criminal case, get a behind the scenes tour and Q&A with Judge Bryson and Judge Griffin, and practice our own trial in an actual courtroom. I am so grateful to the kind folks at the #azsuperiorcourt #mocktrial #teachersofinstagram #teacherlife #teachersofinstagram #educators

i.e. 13. Differentiated Learning (link to YouTube episode in bio) Teachers who differentiate learning in their classroom provide varied ways for their students to show what they know through their personal learning styles. This method of instruction fosters student engagement according to student motivation and readiness. Chan and Mrs. T. maintain that differentiated learning will meet the needs of the different learners in your classroom. What kinds of learners do you have? Have them take one of the many online (and free) multiple intelligence tests to find out! #differentiatedinstruction #differentiatedlearning #students #education #lifelonglearning #teachersofinstagram #educators #studentcenteredlearning #highschoolstudents #highschoolreacher #i.nspiratione.ducation

i.e. 12. Socratic Seminars (link in bio) Stemming from Socrates' method of education, Socratic seminars encourage students to go deeper in their understanding of complex ideas, rather than learning from rote memorization. Intended for thoughtful conversation, these seminars foster problem-solving, collaborative learning, and respect for diverse ideas. Thinking about giving Socratic seminars a try in your classroom? Let us know how it goes! #socraticseminar #teachersofinstagram #educators #studentcenteredlearning #highschoolstudents #highschoolreacher #problembasedlearing #collaborativelearning

Okay, so I'm super pumped that when I did a Google search of our 11 week-old YouTube channel, i.nspiration e.ducation, we came up first on the list!
