Two sets of parents were willing to be recorded while using or talking about technology.
Their experiences were outstanding!
And as I explained to over 20 parents last night, we always have an open invitation for parents to attend our school and classroom. In 20 years of teaching, less than five parents have come to my classroom to visit. I explained our YouTube channel, I stressed that if "you can't come to our class, we'll bring the class to you!" Reminds me of the great speech by our Super Bowl Champion GB Packers below...
While discussing our house YouTube channel, a family stated that they were in Chicago (our school is 250 miles from Chi-Town!) this past weekend and the daughter showed her grandma, aunt, and uncle the YouTube channel. Of course, she is on many of the video clips as many students are. Hear the student and parents tell the story...
In another tech teaching moment, a Wall Street 2 Wisconsin student explains to his parents what a "stop order" is and how it plays into an exit strategy. Our students know a great deal...it ROCKS that they can explain what we are doing in our classes to their parents.
