I have used Quizlet for a couple of years now, but I was introduced to Quizlet Live last week thanks to Shelly. This adds a whole new dimension to classroom formative assessment.

This is a very useful and quick formative assessment tool. The beauty is that after you have created an assessment (we used it for math) and administered it, the scores are immediate! This allows you to make the changes you need for the students who need them.

I worked with classkick  trying to find an option for our PLTW assessments. I rather like the program, but it would be nice to have some built-in correcting. I downloaded the Adobe version of our Lesson 1 Assessment, and it downloaded seamlessly. The students can use the drawing tool and all, but I am still to get the text box figured out. Overall, this may not be the best choice for a larger assessment, but it will work for shorter assignments for sure.

Padlet is a formative assessment tool I loved to use in writing.  It is a wonderful way to organize students thoughts and begin the writing process.  It has awesome graphic organizers for students to use and teaches students to track their thoughts.  This is a tool that can be used at any grade level and for any subject.  It would be great for pretesting and see what the students already know as well.  The students like how they can use PadLet instead of taking notes or filling out a graphic organizer on paper. It allows them to be creative, too!  I like how the students can take pictures of their work and save it.

Plickers is a fast easy way to assess students without a lot of technology.  I like the fact that each student doesn’t need a device to answer questions.  It is a great way to get immediate feedback from the students.  I like how each student has a number they keep all year.  I loved how it keeps the students results.  It is not only a quick formative assessment tool, but it is an effective way to track the students’ progress.

This is a wonderful collaborative tool!  I love how the students can share their work and other students can reply to it.  It can be used for all grade levels.  It is a great way to get parents involved in their child’s learning and see what they are doing in class.  This is very user friendly! :) The students are able to upload  on their own without a lot of teacher instruction.  I like how the teacher has to approve the post before it is seen by the students.  It is an effective way to assess students’ learning because of all the great options it allows.  The students can take pictures of their work, write, draw, and speak (fluency in reading).  It is definitely one of my favorites!!

This tool is similar to Flipgrid and I like it. I used both Recap and Flipgrid, and I do think Flipgrid has a few more enhancements that make it more engaging for students. I also like that on Flipgrid students can see one another’s responses. Traci P.

I love this as an alternative to Kahoot, which so many teachers use. Players enjoy that the answers are on their screen (they don’t have to look up at a big screen at the front of the classroom) and it takes away some of the pressure of the Kahoot being played in front of everyone. Traci P.

I have used this with kindergartners to collect a quick response on a topic. (i.e. “Do you like pumpkin pie?” and they answer “yes” or “no”.) They scan a QR code and add their answer. Great practice for using a digital backchannel. Traci P.

I am so excited to use Educreations!  My plan is to use this as a teacher guided lesson with in my Literacy Center rotations.  I can only be at one center obviously so this would be extremely beneficial to my students in perhaps my listening center!

I like the simplicity of AnswerGarden’s ability to display quick overall understanding as well as, providing the struggling learner with many different answers possibly leading them to their own answer or understanding of the topic.  For advanced learners, seeing other responses may challenge them to look at the topic in a different way or make an unexpected connection.  I would be interested in perhaps using this to come up with a quick anonymous consensus during PLC meetings?

Using Actively Learn I think would greatly benefit the upper elementary and older!  Students of this age group are more likely and willing to engage through technology.  In reading the teacher reviews many of them enjoyed the ability to individually differentiate instruction and assignments based on their students unique needs!   I would be interested in ways to implement this into Kindergarten!

This looks great.  As far as I could see there was no membership fee.  You can create as many questions as you want and there is an option to keep score or not.  You can include up to 10 teams.  I also liked that you can search subjects to come up with games.  I found one for PLTW Design and Modeling.  I would not use this particular game because it had questions in it that were not phrased the way I would phrase them, but it gave me good ideas for questions I could use in my own game.    Heather S.

I am new to using Google Classroom this year but so far I like it.  I have been putting my lesson plans in Google Calendar and the kids can go right in and see them if they are gone.  My 6th graders are not great at taking the responsibility to do this if they are absent but we are working on it.  I really like the way all of the assignments for each class go into their own folder automatically and how you can use the view option to look through the without opening each doc (or drawing or whatever) separately.  I have our PLTW website linked in classroom as well as some other websites that have great science material on them.  It is an easy way for the kiddos to get to the sites we are using when I want them there.  Heather S.

In the middle school this year we have advisory class each day.  We use the advisory time for social lessons and working on learning our school matrix.  I think there are many ways we can use mentimeter for these lessons.  HeatherS.

Kahoot is a quick, simple, and engaging way to assess students. I like the game like format because my students are competitive and like to challenge one another. I love the immediate feedback the students get as well. Kahoot works wonderfully as a review tool as well.

I use Google Classroom frequently with my seventh grade Geography classes. I use the Stream tab to post everything. I like the About tab and plan to post websites, Geography games, and resources that we use often in class. I am excited to start using the About tab for this purpose.

AKA Google Keep.  I don't know why buy I love this app.  It is a way to organize all the cool stuff I find online or from others.  I never have a place to put these things so sometimes I open a random google doc so I now have a place to store all the stuff I find but don't really have a place to put it.

# data[].attributes.body
I had heard of keep previously, but had never played with it to understand the usefulness of it. I can see myself using it both for work and home. This can take the place of keeping a handwritten to-do list as well as setting reminders for myself of events. I will use this often!

This will be a great way for students to study for quiz and tests.  You may use vocab or several different drawing tools.

This is a common tool to help support classroom management and family communication. Students may earn (or lose points) for their choices. Teachers can classify the points, such as following directions, on-task, helping others. Parents then can see daily or weekly notifications.
I love the new portfolio feature! This is a great tool for classroom management, communication with families and now student ownership of their learning as they add to the portfolios. Similar to Seesaw's posting features. This gives students the ability to share their learning and teachers to give feedback.

I love this tool. I have often used the jeopardy game, but I have not explored the other options yet. Teachers can also choose crosswords, flashcards, concentration games, typing tests, matching games, and much more. There are even options for add ons and you can build certificates. What is new is a timeline! I am hoping to explore this option as it does fit into fifth grade ELA standards. Super interactive !

# data[].attributes.body
I love the quick lessons and I have heard so many great things about this site. The lessons are directly aligned to ELA and math content and shared in very student friendly ways. Students can learn about main idea or point of view in song or rap form! Super engaging for students and very quick little lessons. The negative is the cost. The free trial is only 30 days and then there is a fee to use the lessons.
