Koonce's Korner: May 2015

Sunday, May 10, 2015. The Ron Clark Experience. On Friday, I had one of the most incredible experiences of my life. I visited the Ron Clark Academy. If you know nothing about the Ron Clark Academy, stop reading now and watch this video. If you are already aware of Ron Clark, Kim Bearden, and the rest of the staff, then you understand just how big of a deal this really was. I first read one of Clark’s book, The Essential 55. A few months ago (read about that here. We were led around the room to our stoppi...

Wednesday, June 17, 2015. A Year of Change PLUS My Summer Reading List. This past school year was a tough one for me. I changed districts and schools and the change had more of an impact on me than I expected. In the six years I’ve been teaching I’ve moved districts three times, moved schools four times, and changed classrooms five times. Whew! It seems crazy when I write it down like that. Change is something I have grown accustomed to, but this year really shook me. And The Essential 55. I got a little...

Koonce's Korner: September 2016
http://kooncescorner.blogspot.com/2016_09_01_archive.html
Saturday, September 17, 2016. Engagement. It’s a word that’s constantly swimming around in the back of my mind. How can I make this content more engaging? Are my students engaged? If not, why? It’s a struggle to keeps kids engaged in this highly technological world of ours. A couple of years ago, a colleague introduced me to a little website called Flocabulary. I blogged about it last year, which you can read HERE. I’m excited to be partnering up with Flocabulary. And giving away free memberships! 8211; ...

Wednesday, October 28, 2015. Minecraft Challenge. A True Labor of Love! Well, we finished it! The Minecraft Challenge was a success! Was it worth it? Was it a pain? Would I do it again? Would I change the some things? I'll elaborate later. ;). Let me give you some background. My kiddos this year are obsessed with Minecraft-to the point where everyday at least one of them is wearing a Minecraft shirt. They LOVE it. I died several times in a row before I gave up! Don't tell my students! I typed up a text g...

Wednesday, April 15, 2015. I Have a Blog? And Flocabulary. A Treasure Trove! Well, I have completely neglected this little blog of mine for so very long, but I must say that this year has been quite an adjustment and blogging has taken the absolute back seat. Without making a list of excuses, I'll just get to the good stuff. :). You may already know about this resource and if you do, hooray! A teammate introduced this website to me and it has become an integral part of our classroom. Each unit comes with...
