Mr. G's Podcast
by Aly GulamhuseinThis is a podcast about my experiences as an educator. I'll share things I've done, things I want to do, and ideas that I have. Education is a collaborative profession, even though we're often tucked away in our classrooms. My blog and this podcast are my way of opening up a dialogue. I want to share my experiences as a teacher with the hope that other educators glean something personally meaningful from my reflections.

Online Read Alouds
4m · PublishedI read aloud to my students for a little while today and it was a nice experience. It's something that I do in class, and it was nice to be able to bring that over into the online learning space. If you can, you should read to your students – live – no matter what age they are.

6m · PublishedIt's the first day of May, the end of the first month of teaching, and the sun is shining. In today's episode, I spend some time reflecting on what the last month was like and what I'd like to do going forward. I think it's important to take the time to reflect at significant points in time. Now feels like one of those times.

7m · PublishedToday being Thursday, we had the Zoom meetup, so today's episode is based on some reflections of that discussion. Today's theme was, "What does student engagement look like now?"

7m · PublishedI read an article in The Globe and Mail yesterday that went over a few of the reasons why some parents are choosing to opt out of distance learning for their children. It got me thinking about the stress that this is placing on parents and I started asking questions about the necessity of what we're doing.

6m · PublishedI had lunch with my students today and it was great. We talked about what we were eating, our pets, and our stuffed animals. Students who would normally turn off their cameras during video conferences turned them on. No matter how important this lunch was to me, it was even more important to the students. I suggest you consider using some of your instructional time to do something similar. If you do, let me know how it went.

5m · PublishedI played Minecraft with a student for over an hour today. It got me thinking about how students really are in the best position to create their own learning opportunities, especially in this type of learning environment. They have knowledge about the things that they're interested in and love sharing it. It might be worth giving over some control to your students and having them design an engaging project for themselves.

6m · PublishedI asked some of my friends to give me some feedback on this podcast and they did. I like getting feedback because it helps me improve. When teaching, a lot of the feedback that we get is informal. How are we getting feedback now, in this time of remote teaching?

8m · PublishedBeing Thursday, we had the meetup hosted by @callmemrmorris and @MstrJayWill. You should definitely check them out on Twitter (linked) and follow them for information on the next meetup. After listening in, I got to thinking about vulnerability. As the conversation went on, I started thinking about how the changing structures are affecting my mental health and well-being, the theme for today.
