Are you new to EpicPals? If so, head over to the #EpicPals page at the top of the blog for additional information to get you started!
Bobbi and I are excited to be bringing you #EpicPals for a 4th straight year! We'll continue to offer you a variety of fiction and non-fiction texts each month which can be read on Epic along with a coordinating Padlet board for each book!
As always, encourage your students to read others' posts and if they like their post, have them click on the heart at the bottom of the sticky note or leave a comment if comments are turned on. Being reflective and having an authentic reason to like something is a great first step towards leaving meaningful and authentic feedback.
-------------------------------
Padlet has some phenomenal updates which allows you to draw, take pictures, leave an audio or video post right in the app or online by simply clicking the 3 vertical dots on the sticky note! Each of our boards has a reminder of this posted for students to refer to. We encourage you to share one or several of these new upgrades with your students to allow them to take more ownership of their posts.

Being reflective and having an authentic reason to like something is a great first step towards leaving meaningful and authentic feedback.
We encourage you to have conversations with your students on what constitutes a good post and how to be a good digital citizen when working online. You can find several resources to help you with these conversations on this previous blog post.

If you have questions, please don't hesitate to reach out to Bobbi or myself. You can find both of us on Twitter- @smalchow (primary boards) and @bhopteacher (intermediate boards)

👩🏻💻 Malchow's Tech Bytes~ March 31st
Spring Break is over and it was an amazing week. We took a quick road trip out to Colorado with the boys to go skiing. We left at noon on Saturday, drove 18 hours straight to get to Colorado, got to the ski hill on Sunday morning and skied all day, crashed that night at the hotel, skied again all day Monday and Tuesday and then headed back home. The weather was gorgeous and the sun was shining all day on Monday, which unfortunately led to a very burnt nose and cheeks. Lesson learned- bring sunscreen!Now it's time to hunker down and finish out the year strong. This week's newsletter has some math resources as well as a great, yet super simple, way to engage your students as you head back~ the#EggDashChallenge. Your students will love the excitement that the challenge will bring to your room!! This can be modified to any theme you want, you simply need to be able to put review questions, math problems, etc in some sort of container (plastic test tubes, brown paper bags, plastic treasure chests, you name it!) I hope that you'll give it a try!!
