Scannable Technology in the Math Classroom
Here is an interesting article that highlights 5 ways in which you can use QR codes in the math classroom. From sharing student work to exploring 3D figures, scannable technology can enhance the math experience for both teachers and students!
Lesson Plan HyperDoc
I love this HyperDoc that highlights tools that teachers can use for each part of a lesson. For example, it suggests Padlet and AnswerGarden, as well as various other tools, to engage or hook students at the beginning of a lesson.
