Helping teachers shine for Christ in a confused and uncertain world

Idea Swap

Friday, Oct 20 @ 9:00-10:00pm ET

Teachers have the best ideas, so why not share them!? Join us on Zoom to seek and share solutions with fellow educators!  


HOW IT WORKS

We all know that the best ideas come from fellow teachers, and hearing what's working for someone else can be invaluable! That's exactly what we'll do in this exciting Idea Swap Party for Educators.

You won't want to miss this exciting Idea Swap Party, where we'll share ideas, laugh together, enjoy fun giveaways, and more! It's sort of like a party in the teachers' lounge - but without the drama!

The session will begin at 9:00pm EST on Friday, October 20th. Please click the button below to join us at that time:

    I can’t pick a favorite session – every one I listen to becomes my new favorite! I appreciate the Christ-centered and hope-filled messages from all the speakers. Rubber will hit the road tomorrow when I go back to my classroom.

  • Lauri says:

    So many great ideas, thank you for sharing everyone. Menti was a lot of fun and I think it will be a great tool to introduce to the classroom.

  • Tamy Fitzpatrick says:

    It was fun seeing everyone’s responses on Menti (including my own 😊). It was nice to see everyone else’s ideas and see how many matched my own…and sparked some new ideas too.

  • Stephanie Reagan says:

    i am not alone and lots of great ideas!

  • Tatyana says:

    My takeaway- altar of remembrance. Thank you so much.

  • Michaela says:

    The idea swap made me realize that I am not so alone in how stressed I feel about teaching. I loved getting ideas from other teachers about their classroom management strategies.

  • Olivia says:

    Loved the idea of color-coding assignments. I am also excited to try playing Christian instrumental music in my classroom. Thanks to everyone who shared ideas!

  • Lori Kimberlin says:

    I really loved getting all of the great ideas that I can use in my classroom to help me lessen the amount of stress in my classroom and my personal life.

  • Lisa Wilson says:

    Lot’s of great ideas.

  • Rachel says:

    I’ve gone to this conference several times. However this is the first time I came to the ideas swap and I’m so glad I did! First of all, I love menti! I haven’t used it with my students yet, but plan to do so in the upcoming weeks! There were so many great ideas shared and I hope to go back to watch the replay later. I especially loved the idea of having students identify lies they believe and then replace those with truth. These could be posted without names on them to help students understand that they all have commonalities and we all struggle with our beliefs sometimes and may need help overcoming.

  • Carol Montag says:

    I want to take pics of students doing the right things, then show the class at the end of the day. I’m thinking of sharing these with parents in classdojo. I want to highlight each students name, so I honor every student during the month.

  • Stephanie Reagan says:

    Great ideas and conversation!

  • Kim says:

    This is the first conference I’ve been to where everyone loves education and Jesus! It has been uplifting!

  • Amber McFarlane says:

    I enjoyed learning about a new platform that I had not heard about before that I can use in my classroom (menti) that I will share with my school to use in the future. So many great ideas shared! Thank you!

  • Kirstin says:

    Where do I begin?! So many things to take away after this Idea Swap. I agree it’s encouraging to hear all the good things people are doing in their classrooms. So often we just hear about the bad/difficult stuff. I hope you are able to save all these ideas and share them out somehow.

  • Ruth says:

    Appreciated seeing everyone’s responses. Gave me lots of good ideas!

  • Jamie says:

    There were so many wonderful ideas shared tonight! Thank you! I love the idea of the transitions slide and the compliment tree.

  • Terri says:

    Thank you! It was nice opportunity to share ideas with other educations.

  • Liza says:

    Loved all the ideas that were shared and also seeing a commonality among many of them with what I do!

  • Stephanie V. says:

    Absolutely loved the idea of praying to God to give you the heart to care for those children who challenge our love.

  • Natalie T says:

    I love gleaming ideas from Christian colleagues from all over the world. Thank you!
