🌟 Exciting News from CES 🌟 Ms. Driggers attended the Future of Education Technology Conference (FETC) 2025, where she discovered innovative strategies to enhance learning through technology. She introduced an engaging new edtech strategy for descriptive writing! ✍️💻 Here’s how it worked: 🔹 Students were given a writing prompt along with a picture to inspire a quick write. 🔹 After completing their writing, they anonymously voted on the piece they found most descriptive. 🔹 The top 3 writings were shared, sparking a lively discussion about the descriptive language and techniques used. The students were all smiles as they practiced their writing skills in a fun, interactive way. 🎉 This activity not only fostered creativity but also encouraged peer collaboration and critical thinking. Way to go, Ms. Driggers, for bringing back this incredible strategy! 💡👏
