I started this school year with parent permission to use Bing Chat (now Copilot) with my 5th and 6th graders because being under 13 years of age they cannot access tools such at ChatGPT or Quillbot, which can be used with students ages 13 to 18 with parent permission (the then Google Bard, now Google …

More AI Tools for Math Support for Students
I have been looking for tools that my students can use in class if they need help with Math. I’m especially hoping AI tools can help students when I am busy with another student or working with a small group of students and their peers are busy working on different tasks. Sometimes teammates are helpful …

CodeBreaker’s Byte Helps with Math!
After asking Bing Chat and Wolfram Alpha for help with some pretty basic 5th and 6th grade Math problems I was disappointed with the results. I still have this feeling that I did something wrong but I can’t spot it if I did. So when I got introduced to an AI chatbot for kids, even …

AI Chatbots for Math? Not Yet
Even though I’ve been helping my students learn ethical ways to use AI in school to learn, I am finding that using AI Chatbots for Math is not yet where I would need it to be before I could recommend it to my students. Now I have not used Khanmigo, only Bing Chat and Wolfram …

Are They Helpful or Crutches?
My first ever blog post written with the help of an AI! I am adding my own commentary and adding to the blog post the AI wrote for me so from this point on anything you see italicized is written by me. Normal text was written by the AI! I have continued to be active …

Best Math Combo EVER!
I wrote about struggles I’ve always had with reading before, but I’ve never really reflected on my struggles with Math. Reading is more prevalent so I face my struggles on a daily basis. My struggles with Math are not as obvious, especially because the types of Math I use daily are Maths I can do …

A Stewardship STEM Project
Chimacum Middle School 6th graders have been monitoring our neighborhood creek, Chimacum Creek, for the past 15 years! When asked to to develop an integrated STEM unit this year for our 6th graders I went to my fellow 6th grade teachers, the Humanities teacher, Ms. Langston, and the Math teacher, Mr. Meacham, and asked them …

Beyond the Textbook?
Students, teachers, and schools can have access to cell phones, smart phones, iPods, tablets, netbooks, or even laptops to learn. Any of the aforementioned devices allow for learning on the move, which means anytime, anywhere learning. The technologies have the power to expand the classroom and transform learning and education to something it has never …

Why Collaborate?
Why collaborate? That is the question. Let me focus in a bit on a more specific question. If you, in a middle and a high school, were given the opportunity to meet regularly with your peers why would you want to? What could all the Science teachers in grades 6 through 12 meet about if …
