Happy New Year!
Make it your New Year's resolution to incorporate more technology into your classroom! Here are some quick and easy ideas for some of my favorite new instructional technologies.
If you come across a technology tool or idea that you would like to me to share with the staff, please let me know. I am always looking for new ideas.
Class Messenger
Here is a free app from Scholastic. It allows you to send mass text messages and e-mails to parents. It's a great and easy way to keep parents up-to-date with homework, projects, etc.
Socrative- Free and Easy to Use!
This is a great way to incorporate more formative assessment in your classroom. The program is extremely user-friendly. You simply log in and post questions that your students respond to using their device. Students can log in using their Chromebook or other device to m.socrative.com with your unique room # to view and respond to the questions. Student responses are then tallied, and can be used for data analysis.
