Teachers Accept the Ron Clark’s #GradingPapersChallenge
If you are like most teachers, you keep up with the amazing founder of Ron Clark Academy. Ron Clark is a visionary who transforms classrooms around the world by demonstrating high quality techniques that are game changers in the education field. Not only are students engaged in energized lessons, but teachers dream of visiting his school to have some of that inspiration and creativity rubbed off on them to take back to their classrooms.
Recently the hashtag #gradingpaperschallenge has taken off on Instagram due to a challenge that came out of him being bored while grading papers. He recorded himself grading papers while lip syncing Lady Gaga. Then, he added the hashtag, and challenged teachers to have a little fun while doing this tedious task of grading papers. Check out his post.
Teachers all over the world have been responding to his challenge with some impressive video clips. Here are some of my favorites, so far. (You may even see mine at the end. Not going to lie… this #gradingpaperschallenge was fun!)
