Deborah L. Ricco from Holyoke, MA: Hello from First Lutheran Christian School, Holyoke, MA

Amy Belau from Flint, MI: I wish people (who are never in a classroom) would realize that, Debra.

The edWeb Team: Join the free Amazing Resources for Educators community on edWeb for invitations to upcoming webinars, access to all of the webinar archives and slides, and for a CE quiz for all of our webinars. If you're not yet a member, you can join at www.edweb.net/bdbt

janet slote from new york: It does not help Special Ed kids - it just puts them further behind

Debra Skinner: Me too! In a residential setting I have students in grades 7-11 in the same classroom-this makes it challenging to meet their educational needs plus meet common core guidelines!

Amy Belau from Flint, MI: I LOVE PBS LearningMedia! So easy to make accomodations with their lessons!

Peggy George from Phoenix AZ: Hi everyone! So glad I didn't miss this! Love the webinars with Carolyn Jacobs and PBS Learning Media is awesome!

Cynthia Warner from Richmond, KY: I love PBS LearningMedia, too. The resources are so rich and diverse.

Amy Belau from Flint, MI: Wow, Debra! Challenging puts it mildly!

Stephanie Ramos from Los Angeles: I ahave had the chance to look over their lessons. But does anybody know if there is a lesson on water testing or soil testing?

Stephanie Ramos from Los Angeles: havent*

The edWeb Team: You can maximize your screen for a larger view by clicking the maximize button in the top right hand corner of the page.

Victoria Holcomb from 35161: I teach deaf students, are any of these resources good for students who cannot rely on auditory skills?

daisy ortiz from United States: when I maximize, I lose the participants comments

Cynthia Warner from Richmond, KY: Water Solutions and Tunneling for water can help, Stephanie.

Peggy George from Phoenix AZ: Great to see you again Cynthia! Loved the lesson demo you did in the last webinar :-)

Cynthia Warner from Richmond, KY: Thank you, Peggy! Great tosee you, too. You are very kind.

Peggy George from Phoenix AZ: :-) Amy!

Erica Rabner from WGBH: @Sharon, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kkYDXJJMFcA

Allan R Chabot-Stahls from Port-au-Prince, Haiti: no prob. can come back to it tomorrow

The edWeb Team: Hi Daisy, yes maximizing does hide the chat.

Karina Aberg from NY NY: Thanks

Frankie Sullivan from Phoenix, AZ: all of them

Kim from California: Connections, as in the Process Standards connections

Lori Eckert from New Kent Middle School: This was the first novel I read with my students this year

Joseph Iacovino from Orlando, FL: writing evidence based arguments using data

Davinia Forney from United States: connections

Christine Stearns from New Hampshire: These all can be applied to both literacy and numeracy

Dave Barnes from NCTM: The video was part of the Inspiring Middle School Literacy collection, not YouTube.

Allan R Chabot-Stahls from Port-au-Prince, Haiti: thanks for the link, it flows

janet slote from new york: to help improve reading skills, i incorporate phonics and reading strategies with math lessons

Jill Masterson: Our text is language heavy and students with reading disabilities really struggle

Yvette Andes from Arizona: Vocabulary, vocabulary, vocabulary! ;)

Dave Barnes from NCTM: And on YoutTube

Sharon Young from Wake Forest, NC: Thanks Erica.

Robin VanDerLinda from Chatham Middle School: Are the slides from today's webinar available later to print out to save and/or save?

Davinia Forney from United States: ownership

The edWeb Team: The recording, slides, and text chat for today's webinar will be posted in our free Amazing Resources for Educators community at www.edweb.net/bdbt

Christine Stearns from New Hampshire: Again, combining them helps for ALL of those areas.

carolyn jacobs from wgbh: yes, we can make the slides available to you. We'll send out a sharing link in our follow-up email.

jennifer mcgloin from home: critical thinking is so difficult for those with learning problems

Jean Capper from Chicago: but so important, jennifer

Debra Skinner: My question is how can we get special education students to think critically when they don't get the fundamentals?

Cynthia Pinkerton from South Kingstown: Getting students to buy into thier education is the biggest obstical we see this year

Larissa McMahan from Sevier County: So true, Debra

Victoria Holcomb from 35161: Debra, for me, teaching special ed, you have to make it real for them, use real situations in the room. No magic bullet, but you have to be as real as you can be first, and go out from there

Natalie Rohaley from Riverside Middle: My teaching has completely changed over the last 5 years.

George Kuck from CAlifornia: Back in the 1950's the word questions did these things.

matthew webbe from Toronto: I think that the area of Financial Literacy is where these two curriculum areas can help teachers whn combined together. Link: www.edu.gov.on.ca/eng/document/policy/finlitgr4to8.pdf

Nicolas Bourbaki from USA: What about new New Math?

Jodie Murphy from Westford, MA: As a special ed math teacher writing is difficult but short answers give them confidence and I can see their thinking.

Jean Capper from Chicago: Trying to make sure we support the students with good scaffolding, but not holding their hands or spoon feeding them. It is also important to teach them how to use tools.

Karina Aberg from NY NY: Webbe - this is the Exact area I feel is totally lacking in the middle school curriculum (financial - monetary literacy/fluency)

EmilyR Klug from 54751: emily Klug: Perseverance and persistence is important to get to critical thinking. Literacy helps to build stamina.

Victoria Holcomb from 35161: Where is the graph? Is there one?

Debra Skinner: I agree with you Victoria and when I teach social studies I make the connections of concepts to what they know about their world but math is very tricky especially if you follow the common core guidelines.

Brad Robinson from Telford, TN: What grade is this from?

Shannon Long from Valdosta: Sorry, I lost you for a few minutes.

Shelly Jo Simons from Disputanta, VA: My students would have given up halfway through this problem because it has so many "words".

Allan R Chabot-Stahls from Port-au-Prince, Haiti: got bumped

Amy Belau from Flint, MI: It is wordy for our kids.

fatmabozkurt from morrisville NC: horizontal, ventrical

Karina Aberg from NY NY: is there supposed to be a graph?

Karina Aberg from NY NY: I see no graph/

Allan R Chabot-Stahls from Port-au-Prince, Haiti: watched the video while this reloaded - it was great!

Debbie Zimmerman from United States: He is confusing slope with speed.

Donna Mollere from Arizona: I agree with loosing students. My special ed kids would just look at all those words and say "I can't do it".

Myra Schiff from Lighthouse Guild International: Can you read what is on the screen??

carolyn jacobs from wgbh: No, there is no graph on this slide.

Larissa McMahan from Sevier County: pretend he made the graph

Tena Moore from United States: This is too wordy for most students.

Jean Capper from Chicago: I think these are words the student wrote

Debra Skinner: My students would give up as well.

Ladocia Crowder from Little Rock CDC Center: It sounds very general

Paula Dickinson from Gilford, NH: My reading specialists background suggests that we should reflect upon text to text, text to world, and text to self.

Joseph Iacovino from Orlando, FL: Add a cost analysis?

Brad Robinson from Telford, TN: the student needs more work on grammer

John Spack from Arts IMPACT MS, Columbus, OH: i love the language "more vertical than horizontal"

Crystal Perry from United States: I do not see a graph

Natalie Rohaley from Riverside Middle: What grade is he in? That makes a difference in how in depth he would answer the questions.

daisy ortiz from United States: I don't think it's too wordy...they ARE in middle school, not elementary!

George Kuck from CAlifornia: AT eighth grade they ought to know the definitions of speed and tie them wiwth the graph.

Leah Esposito from Bethel Middle School: Fluency in their writing?

Victoria Holcomb from 35161: I love word choice, scamper, exploring,

janet Kice: The student can set up a graph and understands th x and y axis labels

Amy Belau from Flint, MI: Wow! That's advanced for my students! I'm impressed! I love the word choices, too!

Frankie Sullivan from Phoenix, AZ: Great opportunity to work with student precision.

Shelly Jo Simons from Disputanta, VA: Hahah - love the line "when it was down his throat he graphed". Not a very good understanding of the word "graphed".

Shannon Long from Valdosta: Good descriptive words.

Erica Rabner from WGBH: They will delve into the lesson/assignment soon!

Barbara Molina from Chicago: This student just wrote an interesting story, but not connecting it to the graph.

Shannon Long from Valdosta: I like the title!

jennifer mcgloin from home: very confusing

Debra Skinner: This shows a lot of creativity!

Larissa McMahan from Sevier County: ok haha I'm confused

janet slote from new york: i agree he doesnt seem to relate to the graph math

Colette Fraser: this is difficult to interpret without prior instruction. difficult to follow

Tom Light from Paris ME: I want to see the graph.

Dr. Hiba Fayoumi from Sylvania, OH: they have a good idea, just not able to communicate it well

Jennifer Woodruff from Kentucky: sounds as if they are suppose to write a realistic situation about distance and time

Ladocia Crowder from Little Rock CDC Center: It reads as if he/she would be speaking it. They do need some help with subject/verb agreement

Larissa McMahan from Sevier County: You can tell he is trying

Theresa McQuaide: He connected it to another scenario

Susan Macrone: I love to see kids take a "chance" to explain something they are being shown.

Alvaro Agudelo from Colombia: I wanna see the graph too

Jill Masterson: What is the amount of time you would plan for with this lesson?

Jean Capper from Chicago: What a great way to encourage kids to write!

Monique Barker from Maine: What a great way to help realize a child's understanding of a skill/concept!

Larissa McMahan from Sevier County: Did students do this on computers?

Dave Barnes from NCTM: @Larissa - Yes this was typed into the lessons.

Marcy Myers from Charlotte: King's Chessboard is GREAT

Leah Esposito from Bethel Middle School: Was this a whole class activity? Group activity?

Larissa McMahan from Sevier County: I have The Greedy Triange, Love it

Jean Gatch from Fort Worth, TX: I see that the student is communicating, yet probably hasn't stepped back to really read what he has written.

Patty Shaw from Southlake, TX: Love the Greedy Triangle, too!

Dave Barnes from NCTM: I agree Monique, insights into what they are thinking about.

Larissa McMahan from Sevier County: Triangle oops

Leslie Paytes from United States: Sir Cumference :-)

Shannon Long from Valdosta: I am not familiar with Greedy Triangle, but I will certainly check it out.

Jean Gatch from Fort Worth, TX: I LOCE Sir Cumference!

Jean Gatch from Fort Worth, TX: (LOVE)

Nichole Martin from SeDoMoCha: i am a big fan of Sir Cumference too

Victoria Holcomb from 35161: I'm doing Lemonade War for fun with mine, to end with a hot chocolate stand (since it's cold for lemonade)

Jean Capper from Chicago: Like the idea of having them talk about their evidence

Robin VanDerLinda from Chatham Middle School: chapter scavenger hunts in new text books are fun starts to new school years

Natalie Rohaley from Riverside Middle: I use anticipation guides to begin a new unit. That gets the kids thinking about what is coming and it allows me to see what they might already be familar with.

Susan Macrone: Headline acivity is a great idea!

Karina Aberg from NY NY: Mug wumps?

Monique Barker from Maine: Loving this idea...

Nichole Martin from SeDoMoCha: love mug wumps

Paula Dickinson from Gilford, NH: Can we get a link to all the comments made by the participants?

Nichole Martin from SeDoMoCha: they are crazy characters

The edWeb Team: The recording, slides, and text chat for today's webinar will be posted in our free Amazing Resources for Educators community at www.edweb.net/bdbt

Angelita Crockett from Raleigh, NC: I would probably incorporate informational math (i.e. basic word problems) into my literacy program, especially the area of comprehension.

Wallis Green from Venezuela: what are mug wumps

Kathleen Hoedeman from Boyce Middle School: Sounds like you are referring to the power of "story". I'm a firm believer in this and try to set concepts within a story as often as possible.

Karina Aberg from NY NY: [looks like you can "select all" the chat box text -- copy/paste -- to save]

Susan Lee: anyone from Minnesota using CMP2

jennifer mcgloin from long island: Inferencing is so abstract for special ed

Victoria Holcomb from 35161: How much time would you expect to teach this one lesson?

Yvette Andes from Arizona: These kind of pages (like what you have created here on this slide) are also a fabulous way for students to go back and prepare for their assessments and exams. My kiddos love having these QUICK references to what they should knoow.

Natalie Rohaley from Riverside Middle: Love Frayer Models

Debra Skinner: You are right Jennifer!

Crystal Perry from United States: I love the Frayer model.

T. Stewart from Bronx, NY: I like the four square

George Kuck from CAlifornia: what happened to speed? Math includes speaking to define the words.

Barbara Molina from Chicago: Love Frayer Models and Four Squares

Amy Belau from Flint, MI: I like that four square...I'm going to use it!

Jean Capper from Chicago: these are great for making sure they make connections to the words and they also make great student work to put on bulletin boards

Jodie Murphy from Westford, MA: There is a good frayer model on understanding word problems. It's called STAR...

Stephanie Ramos from Los Angeles: good strategy to use for eld

Dave Barnes from NCTM: A great resources for these is "What's the Big Deal about Vocabulary?" Dunston, P. J., & Tyminski, A. M. (2013).Mathematics Teaching in the Middle School, 19 (1), 38-45.

Paula Dickinson from Gilford, NH: Dave: Love that you list current literature!

Angelita Crockett from Raleigh, NC: Is that it...STAR?

Victoria Holcomb from 35161: Are these videos closed captioned?

Erica Rabner from WGBH: Yes, the videos are closed captioned.

Amy Belau from Flint, MI: Almost every video should have closed captioning as an option.

Victoria Holcomb from 35161: Thank you!

Jodie Murphy from Westford, MA: Google STAR and Frayer and you will find it...

Angelita Crockett from Raleigh, NC: Thank you!

Tom Light from Paris ME: Do kids log into the lesson? Is what they wrote saved?

Debra Skinner: Could this lesson be used as a group lesson using a smartboard?

Andy Vrakas from Milwaukee: I had to join late today...will this be available for viewing at a later date? If so, where can I find the link? Thanks!

Frankie Sullivan from Phoenix, AZ: Questions should be text based if addressing Literacy Standards. Asking if they think it is possible is not text based. It expects students to have experiences they may not have or understand.

The edWeb Team: The recording, slides, and text chat for today's webinar will be posted in our free Amazing Resources for Educators community at www.edweb.net/bdbt

Erica Rabner from WGBH: @Tom - student work is saved and can be accessed 3 different ways for teachers

Peggy George from Phoenix AZ: we're seeing it :-)

EmilyR Klug from 54751: I agree with Andy from Milwaukee, I need to run for another meeting. Will I have access to review and get more out of this presentation especially that of what I missed?

Cynthia Warner from Richmond, KY: Going back to an earlier question, I believe all of these video have captioning.

Allan R Chabot-Stahls from Port-au-Prince, Haiti: so cute

Peggy George from Phoenix AZ: I saw it great :-)

Patty Shaw from Southlake, TX: A technology question: can the students work with the lessons with iPads/tablets?

Annette Curra from Valley Stream: It's great to see problems as real life

Deborah M. Kilpatrick from Pleasant Home School: it was very good. my kids would love the videos,

Karyn Berry: Was able to see it

fatmabozkurt from morrisville NC: that is great

Marcy Myers from Charlotte: This is great

Shannon Long from Valdosta: Cute video although Harry cheated.

Karina Aberg from NY NY: What grade is this lesson targeted to?

Cynthia Pinkerton from South Kingstown: Is pbslearning free or is it a subscription you need to buy?

Angelita Crockett from Raleigh, NC: Hi Morrisville!

Cynthia Warner from Richmond, KY: The lessons are all impressive. Grades 5-8

Emily Mazur from Las Vegas, NV: I think it's free

Shannon Long from Valdosta: He didn't ride his unicycle!

Amy Belau from Flint, MI: It's free, Cynthia.

Cynthia Warner from Richmond, KY: PBS LM is free.

Tonya Pugh from Gallia County Local Schools: I think the videos are just long enough to refocus students

Debra Skinner: Love the video and the real life solution!

Allan R Chabot-Stahls from Port-au-Prince, Haiti: ouch!

Stephanie Ramos from Los Angeles: nice, can you edit them online?

fatmabozkurt from morrisville NC: me too debra

Shannon Long from Valdosta: good real life situation.

Marcy Myers from Charlotte: Work on Ipads?

Amy Belau from Flint, MI: I would think so, Marcy.

The edWeb Team: Remember, you can maximize your screen for a larger view by clicking the maximize button in the top right hand corner of the page.

Dave Barnes from NCTM: Stephanie, I don't belive you can edit the online lesson. Students can edit their work.

Jodie Murphy from Westford, MA: Can teacher's view the work from a student's point of view? (So I would know what they will see?)

Tonya Pugh from Gallia County Local Schools: technology is limited in our school, would you reccommend using this as a whole class activity? Or small group activities?

Frankie Sullivan from Phoenix, AZ: Where are the links and connections to Literacy Standards?

daisy ortiz from United States: can this be used on a smartboard if classrm does not have a tablet/laptop for each student?

Erica Rabner from WGBH: @Patty - Flash interactives on PBS LearningMedia are not currently iPad or Android friendly. But we are working on it! Please note that the final assessments included in the literacy lessons are Flash.

Tom Light from Paris ME: I like the final assessment: write a story to match the graph.

Cynthia Warner from Richmond, KY: Yes, this can be used on a smartboard, and I do believe these lessons are available for use on the ipad.

Amy Belau from Flint, MI: I use it on my Promethean Board, Daisy.

carolyn jacobs from wgbh: yes it can be used on a smartboard - the student would not be saving their individual work but they could do the assessment with paper individually

fatmabozkurt from morrisville NC: yes it is going to be great write story of graph

Cynthia Warner from Richmond, KY: Sorry, Erica, I thought they were HTML5.

Tonya Pugh from Gallia County Local Schools: awesome

Erica Rabner from WGBH: @Jodi - There are 3 ways for a teacher to view a student's work : (1) the teacher can log on as the student to the student’s account (2) the student can print out the work (3) the student can generate a URL of a pop-up page that summarizes all of the student's work by clicking on “Review My Work” on the top right hand corner of any lesson page.

Jill Masterson: About how much time do you give for students to work through this lesson on the computer?

Dianne Grube from Salem, NH: Google Docs works great for collaboration!

Debra Skinner: I really like this lesson and am pleased that there are different ways they can be assessed throughout the lesson and the follow up skill sheet! We have limited computers in our classrooms but I can picture using this as a group interactive lesson using the smartboard and then follow up with individual work using the skill sheet.

Cynthia Pinkerton from South Kingstown: Great to see that it is able to be used on a smartboard!

carolyn jacobs from wgbh: The lessons take 1-2 class periods.

Jodie Murphy from Westford, MA: Thank you!

carolyn jacobs from wgbh: Of course, the students could be accessing the students outside of class also.

Erica Rabner from WGBH: @Cynthia - the final assessment is optional so you were right! Thanks!

Tonya Pugh from Gallia County Local Schools: How long is a period to you?

Sheri Wilkins: I missed where to get these lessons. I like them.

Tonya Pugh from Gallia County Local Schools: I teach 80 minute blocks

sara root-simone from paxton, ma: Discussion maps in class allow students to record their ideas in a small group where they draw lines from others comments then write their own ideas in connection to it.

Heidi Macfarlane from Calgary: Can reluctant writers make a photo journal?

Cynthia Warner from Richmond, KY: PBS Learning Media: Inspiring Middle School Literacy, Sheri.

Linda Gojak from NCTM: It really helps if students have had some experiences in writing and communicating about their mathematical thinking before they reach the middle grades. Kids can do this as early as kindergatten!

Jean Capper from Chicago: How would you support ELL students

Erica Rabner from WGBH: www.pbslearningmedia.org/collection/midlit/

daisy ortiz from United States: Thanks everyone. Good to hear it can be used on smartboard since alot of my tchrs don't have a computer available for each child.

Thelma Black from Charlotte: How can students with learning barriers use journalling during math?

Annette Curra from Valley Stream: I thought the photo journaling was a great idea. Students can caption pictures

Victoria Holcomb from 35161: Thelma, maybe have an illustrated story, just a sentence or two, with an action picture

Donna Bassett: Great idea...using captions!

Annette Curra from Valley Stream: Math students can journal with tables and charts

Thelma Black from Charlotte: Thanks great idea!

Dave Barnes from NCTM: "Becoming a Mathematical Problem Solver". Rigelman, N. R. (2013).Mathematics Teaching in the Middle School, 18 (7), 416-423.

Robin VanDerLinda from Chatham Middle School: students with special needs can create ABC books of drawings and phrases for units, such as geometry: a for angles, etc. as part of a unit

George Kuck from CAlifornia: PRe and post tests are critical. IT allows you to evaluate your teaching. Used it for many years in physics and it worked.

Cynthia Pinkerton from South Kingstown: Dave, that was a great artical

Annette Curra from Valley Stream: Math students can model the manipulatives for journaling as well

Frankie Sullivan from Phoenix, AZ: This webinar needs a different title: Using Reading and Writing to facilitate Mathematical Practices. It is fabulous for the mathematical practices. There are no connections beting made here to diciplinary literacy or the literacy standards.

Catherine Doiron: Novo Ed has a free MOOC- https://novoed.com/mastering-language-common-core-2 focus on Elementary Math / ELL starting soon. An earlier course had sentence starters to help build conversation skills, which could also be good for journals.

George Kuck from CAlifornia: Class sizes?

Frankie Sullivan from Phoenix, AZ: What are they stuck on and how are they using the "text" to substantiate the information.

Deb Horner from United States: when I ask my students "what makes you say that?" they assume that I'm telling them they have the right answer. Really, I'm asking them to think critically about their responses.

Amy Belau from Flint, MI: My students assume that too, Deb. It's interesting to hear their reasons/explainations.

Frankie Sullivan from Phoenix, AZ: Ask students to use the classroom experiences with the vocabulary and mathematics to justify. Evidence. Show students how to pull evidence from the text. Effectively define what "text" is as a mathematics community.

Frankie Sullivan from Phoenix, AZ: Ask students to use specific vocabulary in their explanations.

Dave Barnes from NCTM: Links to resources at www.nctm.org/literacy/

Marcy Myers from Charlotte: These are great virtual manipulatives

Erica Rabner from WGBH: @Frankie - each lesson in the Inspiring Middle School Literacy Collection is geared towards ELA CCSS. This lesson in particular tackles 11 ELA standards and 3 Math standards.

Karina Aberg from NY NY: Could you please post the Illuminations URL?'

Sue Kelley from PA Leadership Charter School: I love Illuminations but they just changed their interface and it is harder to find activities.

Shannon Long from Valdosta: Great presentation!

Frankie Sullivan from Phoenix, AZ: @Erica - That may be true but that was not presented here. What was presented here was a great example of mathematical practices.

Allan R Chabot-Stahls from Port-au-Prince, Haiti: Thank you ladies.

Paula Dickinson from Gilford, NH: Wow! Great presentation for which I will reflect upon w/ my FB friends who are no idea of CCSS!

Linda Howard from Arizona: Who was the author of Kings Chessboard again please.

Cynthia Warner from Richmond, KY: Great webinar! Great presenters! Thank you so much, Carolyn and Jane.

Karina Aberg from NY NY: Thank you for the resources and presentation.

Sharis Steib from United States: Yes, can you post the Illuminations link please!

Kim from California: illuminations.nctm.org

sara root-simone from paxton, ma: Thank you for making this possible!

fatmabozkurt from morrisville NC: thank you so much it was really great presentation

Catherine Doiron: Thanks for this resource.

janet Kice: The students will be engaged

carolyn jacobs from wgbh: We'll be covering the website where you can find the lessons in a minute or so.

Sharon Young from Wake Forest, NC: This webinar was very informative! Thank you for the presentation and feedback from all on the webinar.

Alice Robinson from JHS West Babylon: The Presentation was an eye-opener. I will check out some of the resources and online stuff to advance my knowledge.

Jean Capper from Chicago: I think you are so right, we have focused too much on computation and not enough on mathematics

daisy ortiz from United States: Very nice, altho I was a little distracted by the comments running during the presentation (I kept reading and responding to remarks!)

Natalie Rohaley from Riverside Middle: Very excited to check out the PBS site for the different lessons that are there.

Susan Macrone: Thank you - looking forward to using more of the PBS lesson plans. I do use Illuminations (and LOVE them - especially Triangle Inequalities!).

George Kuck from CAlifornia: Thank you. Looks very time intensive for small classes. Looks as if it could be very valuable for getting students who have dropped out of school to get their GED's/

Margaret Orazen from Fairfax HS: I would love more of these kinds of lessons for high school level!

Shannon Long from Valdosta: I agree with Daisy. I was not sure if it was supposed to respond during the presentation or not.

Linda Gojak from NCTM: Mathematics word walls in the classroom are a great way to support ELL students

Angelita Crockett from Raleigh, NC: Very informative webinar. Thank you for sharing and thank you attendees for your contributions.

Catherine Doiron: The audio would be great.

LYDIA ACHA: dO YOU HAVE LESSONS THAT LINK BIOLOGY AND MATH

Cynthia Warner from Richmond, KY: PBS LearningMedia has many, many resources for all content areas and all levels.

Sharis Steib from United States: I am very excited to check out the new resources I've acquired from this presentation! THANKS!

Kimberly Carter from Texas: I am a homeschool mom w/ a special ed student. My recommendation is to relate things to what they know. My kid is loves comics and superheros so I relate that when I can.

Deodat Prashad: Nice presentation. Thank you all

Robin VanDerLinda from Chatham Middle School: some of our ELL students keep a netbook open and use Google translator when they encounter difficult/unknown vocabulary in math and all classes

Frankie Sullivan from Phoenix, AZ: Thank you ladies. Well done presentation. This is a great resource.

Debra Skinner: This webinar was great I can't wait to explore the pbs website and illuminations!

Jodie Murphy from Westford, MA: Great presentation!

Marcia Dunathan: Very informative and interesting. Would love to see future lessons for elementary literacy/mathematics!

LYDIA ACHA: DO YOU HAVE HIGH SCHOOL LESSONS?

Jill Baronowski from connecticut: ccss practice materials also have glossaries in multiple languages

Larissa McMahan from Sevier County: That would be great to use the presentations on mobile devices. It seems to motivate students if they can use their personal devices.

Angela Duffield from Allegheny Valley School Distr: Thank you, very informative

Cynthia Warner from Richmond, KY: High school lessons are being planned.

Jodie Murphy from Westford, MA: Yes I have seen High school lessons on illuminations - not too many

Margaret Orazen from Fairfax HS: That video clip with the guy riding his bike and then getting a ride was from a PBS show but I'm blanking on the name....anyone know which one?

Kimberly Carter from Texas: Special ed answer to question like explaining what an idiom is I said words that don't make the picture

The edWeb Team: Cyberchase

Cynthia Warner from Richmond, KY: There are other math resources for high school on PBS LM.

Cynthia Pinkerton from South Kingstown: Not having a book to support CCSS, this sounds like an amazing site for resources

Annette Curra from Valley Stream: Thank you so much for the valuable lessons and resources; unfortunately, my computer froze a couple of times. I will review this webinar on the website.

Margaret Orazen from Fairfax HS: Yay! Cyberchase! Love that show. Thanks.

Deborah M. Kilpatrick from Pleasant Home School: Great info! I'll being checking this out more closely.
