Listen to a piece of music in class. Have students post to a Padlet wall to describe the imagery that came to their mind as they listened. Or have them critique the piece of music!

Have students read a piece of text and ask a guiding question; request that students post their responses on a Padlet wall, citing evidence from the text to support their answer.

In the past I have used Padlet to see what the children have learned at the end of a unit. When we begin our next unit in science, I will use it to see what background knowledge they already have.

Using Padlet you can video students performances, e.g. their kicking action or role in a play. Students can then comment and analyse each others actions/performance

use Padlet as a digital portfolio.  My thought was to give each child a "key" (actual key-shaped bookmark with a QR code on it to take students directly to their portfolios) so they could post projects, thinking, plans, and more onto the page throughout the year.  I was going to password protect each as well.  This would allow parents to visit the portfolio whenever they wanted and it would be private.  I think this would be an easy and protected way for teachers to gather artifacts of student progress.

I use Padlet to have students write compliments about other students artwork. It gives the students an opportunity to participate using the iPad and it gives the ability for students to write something instead of saying it. Children are happy when they see what others write. I also use it as a discussion board where students can write questions and I can give feedback and provide answers. Students are able to communicate with each other and give their opinions.

During Math time constraints limit our discussions. Padlet could be used to let students share their alternative methods with the class and let other students try them, comment on them, and encourage them to share their own ideas.  I often learn from my students new ways to view problems.

I use Padlet as an exit ticket to summarize the learning from the day. It is a powerful tool to see other students ideas and thoughts in an interactive way. They can also include links or other media to illustrate their learning from the day. Padlet allows students who do not normally share their thoughts in the classroom to become an active part of the classroom environment. The ability for the students to work anonymously is especially important in the middle school classroom, as the "cool factor" of answering questions in front of the class seems to diminish. To have all student responses in one place instead of on post it's allowed me to organize each class periods thoughts in one space.

Use Padlet for quick comprehension checks in all subject areas.  I have also used it for group work.  I like how the Padlet responses can be monitored from a teacher computer.  I have found that students complete better work when they know other students can see what they are writing.  Each student is able to respond to a question and be held accountable for their understanding.

I am looking forward to using  Padlet as an information bulletin board for parents.  First grade is planning a field trip later this month and are planning to share the trip with parents.  Along with photos we'll take, parents will be asked to share their pictures as well.  Thanks Cara for this great idea!

Set up a wall and add a note with a URL to a YouTube video or website with an article or video you want students to read/watch. Resize it a little to make the video bigger. Have space next to the note for students to respond to a specific prompt or question about what they watched or read.

Set up a Padlet wall and have headings in place for K, W, and L for your topic. Have students add notes under the corresponding header to share what they KNOW, what they WANT to know, and what they LEARNED about the topic throughout the lesson or unit. Refer back often!

Use a shared Padlet wall space to collaborate with colleagues on an upcoming project. With the ability to link to URLs or attach files & photos, you can curate and collect resources in one place so that everyone has access to them as you plan.

Set up a Padlet wall to serve as an exit slip. Have students or colleagues add a note to share a take-away from the lesson, what their next steps will be, the main idea of the day's lesson, one thing they learned today, etc.

Set up a Padlet wall in a stream layout. Use it to share communication like homework assignments and updates with parents and students, attaching files and linking to relevant URLs as needed. Allow students to ask questions and respond, or allow classmates to respond. Set the wall to have a password to keep it minimized to just your students/parents, and set email notifications on so you receive an email when people post to your wall to stay on top of potential questions.

Use a Padlet wall for students to create various thinking maps digitally. They can arrange their post-it notes in a flow map, tree map, or even circle map format. You can upload a custom background (under options -> background) to help them with layout in the beginning.
