Reviewing Content Using Breakout EDU?



Breakout EDU has been a big hit in the GVSD!  There are many teachers that are learning how to implement Breakout Edu into their curriculum.  It teaches students of all ages how to work together in a positive way!  Check out these sessions from the High School, Middle School and the Elementary Schools!  The ultimate goal is for students to work together in both small groups and in a whole group in order to solve clues and break out of a lockbox in about 30-40 minutes.  So how can you infuse this into your classroom?  Well, here are a few examples!

High School Freshman and Seniors Broke Out!  Collaboration at its best!

Mrs. Melnick's Pre-Algebra class had to simplify multiple expressions.  The expressions were the clues needed to breakout of the box!


Students simplified their expressions and broke out in under 30 minutes!  Great job!!



Mrs. Stec's class Broke out practicing for the PSSA's


5th Grade BSES Teachers learned about BreakoutEDU by being students!  They kept calm and worked collaboratively!

Mrs. Silicato's 1st Grade class Helped the Cat Find His Hat!

Miss Stefanowicz 3rd Grade Class broke out!  Oh the Places They Will Go!

Students SKYPED Mr. Windsor's Class for a little competition.  Mrs. Schmidt's crew won by a hair!


Keep it up GV!!  I love the collaboration!!  There are many more to follow!

Breaking Out to Break In Building class community, learning about your students, and creating a fun environment to learn are a few of the goals we have as teachers when we begin the school year. So what better way than to participate in a Breakout Edu? This September, teachers in our elementary and middle school buildings have been taking this opportunity to create their classroom culture. By using Breakout Edu games, teachers have seen an increase in communication and collaboration with their students. The skills they practiced through the games transfer to other disciplines and give all students a chance to feel successful. Breakouts can be used throughout the year, in any subject, and at any level.

Blog #3 The Power of Technology

Blog #3 This blog is a reflection of the video posted below. It was put out by Microsoft and it certainly makes you think. Watch this video. What are your thoughts?? Tech Coach Response #1 I am truly amazed at what we are able to do with technology in today’s world. Technology today was only dreamed of when I was growing up. We did not have mobile devices and almost everything was somehow connected to an outlet. One thing is for sure, you don’t have to go to the library or the computer lab to get work done. Work can happen from anywhere and any place. I do believe we need to remember the power that technology has and not let it take power over us.  We need to be mindful of how we use it, remember that anything can be tracked and traced and use it to do good.   Currently, as a teacher, I have found the good that technology can do.  With my students, I have been able to connect them with classes all around the world. As a professional, I have been abl...
