A great site for teachers to use to make games to assess student's retention of information.
Here is a list of ways to make your classroom instruction more effective!
Creating a Word Cloud is a great way to have your students think critically, build their vocabulary, and it's easy to use! You simply put in a list of words, these words describe who I am as a teacher, and create an image with them. You can pick the shape and color that the words form.
GoNoodle is a great site to use during brain breaks during the day. It gets kids up and moving and gives teachers a chance to have a little fun too!
In this video, I learned how important it is that teachers create an environment and teach in a way that fosters creativity in their students and provides them a place to grow in their creativity.
Poll Everywhere can be used to gauge your students' opinions and understanding of a topic being discussed.
Toondoo can be used to create a cartoon summarizing a text, or showing a skill learned in class.
Padlet can be used to put lots of peoples thoughts, ideas, and opinions in one space visible to all who have the link to that site. This is a great way to post responses to discussion questions. They can be anonymous or you can add your name to it.
