Following on from the Weekly Bulletin post about March Media Mentor Month, here is today’s challenge:
While the original post was primarily for parents, teachers are also encouraged to try some of these with their students as well. Try and complete as many of the activities in the calendar as you can throughout the month of March and if you would like to share with our community, make sure to mention @nischinaorg (on Instagram) or @NISChina (on Twitter or Facebook) so we can follow your progress! Together we can mentor each other to be more mindful and purposeful users of technology!
The rest of the calendar can be found below:

The International Literacy Association has compiled a glossary of literacy terms as a living document, to be constantly updated and refined, to make the terms clear to a general population of teachers as well as literacy practitioners. Terms range from “diphthong” to “instructional reading level” to “prosody” and more. Not sure what exactly those words mean? Check out the glossary!

The post about Feedback (Friday, Daily Bulletin) was meant to have concluded with this invitation to discuss:
If you would like to share your thoughts on how to make feedback useful, how to keep it manageable, and how to ensure it works for learners, join us in a stand-up coffee break chat, Thursday morning break (10:20-10:40 in the Break Room). All welcome.
If we continue to spend our time identifying failure as we see it and giving people feedback about how to avoid it, we’ll languish in the business of adequacy.
We humans do not do well when someone whose intentions are unclear tells us where we stand, how good we “really” are, and what we must do to fix ourselves. We excel only when people who know us and care about us tell us what they experience and what they feel, and in particular when they see something within us that really works
This article: The Feedback Fallacy offers an in-depth analysis of feedback: what works, what doesn’t, and what we can do to reframe the conversations we have regarding feedback.
How might this apply to the way we give, receive, and seek feedback on our teaching practice?
How might we apply some of the ideas and principles mentioned to the way we give feedback to students?
