I love Edpuzzle because my students prefer visual stimuli. I often choose the fun science videos because student engagement increase. I like that it allows the viewer to rewind to find the answer in the video. I also like that it gives the correct answers so that students can see where they went wrong.

I'm loving Formative these days. When tracking students progress, especially with multiple choice questions, I ask the students to share how confident they are in their answers. This helps me to know if they were guessing and just happened to get arrive at the right answer.

# data[].attributes.body
I like to use Edpuzzle because it allows me to see how my students learn and what are their metacognition processes. Working with students in small groups or one-to-one allows me understand how my students view the material and how they best learn. Visual works for some and auditory for others.

White boards, exit tickets with self assessment and Kahoot are my go to for formative assessment. I took this class in search of some more variety to my lessons. White boards and Exit tickets are great for reteaching on the spot. I like to use Kahoot more for an overall understanding of where my whole class stands on a topic. I also love using IXL Analytics Live when I assign a particular target. It helps me to also reteach on the spot. Any way that I can quickly identify the areas that my students are struggling is a pro to me.

It appears that Padlet is a tool that I want to explore in more depth. It seems like it is an easy tool that students would enjoy using. We have been limiting students use of cell phones however, seeing that Padlet has a Mobil device I am going to explore y=using it for exit tickets and do nows.

I used Google Classroom for  remote learning during our COVID break and found Google Slide shows worked very for teaching math with formative assessments along the way to check whether the student was ready to move on to the next level of the assignment. Giving each individual access to the slide show offered a place where students could show their work, reflect upon and answer a
question, and make corrections before submitting the assignment.

One strategy that I tried was the four corners activity. I made three statements that I thought that my students might feel strongly about in relation to the novel that we are reading. I was able to get them to share and support their opinions, and check for understanding at the same time. The students were engaged and seem to really enjoy the activity!

The use of Flipgrid as a formative assessment helped me understand my students better by giving my more quiet students a voice in discussions and all of my students the chance to use metacognition to answer curriculum related questions.

# data[].attributes.body
I have my first graders use dry/erase markers and whiteboards (or directly on their desks) to answer/respond to questions to check for understanding. I do this with math problems all the time. I have them write down problems on their boards and hold up their whiteboard when they have the answer (plus show their work). This quick formative assessment gives me instant data on my students understanding of that particular math concept.

# data[].attributes.body
I would like to try using Kahoot as an entrance/exit ticket. I have used small cards or discussion posts previously, but the ability for both students and me to see immediately how well a concept was learned seems more beneficial. My previous methods were only visible to me or required a lot of scrolling on both our parts to see the feedback.

Using questioning and quick writes to then have students share and gain peer feedback and self reflection -- then share that with me. This is nice because we can use tech tools like Google Docs/Keep or Evernote, or use paper and pencil and do it old school

I liked using white boards in my first grade classroom as a quick way to check for understanding. I would use it in all different subject areas. In math I might have the students write a simple answer to an addition problem or draw different shapes. In reading I would segment different words and have students write the sounds they hear to write the word. This would help me see what the students were understanding and what they needed more help with.

As a college student, observing classrooms I have seen many formative assessment tools being used in action. One of my favourites has to be Kahoots or Socrative. Kahoots allow for fun interactive games while Socrative is valuable in instant feedback or useful in ways such as exit tickets which can be valuable at the end of a day/lesson to check in with students and their understanding.

I really like using Quizizz for extra practice on a given lesson. I also like that I am able to edit an exiting Quiz and add or delte any questions in the "pre-made" Quiz. The self gradeing in Quizizz also saves me time when wanting a quick check (formative assessment) on any given lesson.

Quizizz is an excellent way to not only check in the classroom on content you have worked on for the day, but it can also be assigned as a quick homework piece as well. For the most part, students like this website and will attempt this for homework vs. writing on notebook paper or handout from class that day.

I like whiteboard.fi as an alternative to using whiteboards in class. I can push out graphs and number lines to students and have them note important features or represent inequalities right on the image. If they're solving an equation, I can ask students to show their work and see it all.

# data[].attributes.body
I like Quizziz over Kahoot because students can take their time and not feel rushed for students that need more time to process information. I also think that I would like to try out EdPuzzle as well. I have used the pre-made ones, but I would like to try my own.

# data[].attributes.body
I have been using Kahoot to help my students study for their social studies quizzes. The Kahoot tool is very fun, adaptable and engaging for students. It is easy to use and you can create your own or use premade ones. It allows me to see who is grasping/retaining content and who might need more help before the graded quiz.

I am a big fan of IXL. It took some getting used to and I have to say that I am still not quite acquainted with all of the functions available, but I have found that the students enjoy using it and the days where we use it in class are very productive. I use it in my math classes and it is available for language formative assessments as well. It is a very useful tool for checking understanding as well as targeting problem areas.

# data[].attributes.body
I have used Kahoot to get an idea of how students are doing in math and vocabulary. It is easy to use and set up and a lot of fun for the students. It allows me to see who is struggling and having a hard time in certain areas and then I am able to provide extra help.

I use Quick Writes all the time in my class as a way to have students begin a new topic, as well as have them assess their understanding of a topic previously discussed. Quick Writes help students to freely share their thoughts and ideas without the pressure of a set structure of design, organization, and guidelines. I also love that students can go back to their quick write and make revisions/continue working with their started work if they are truly interested in the topic.

I love Nearpod. There are so many different activities to choose from. For vocabulary they can use the matching cards/ memory game or take a quiz. For concepts, they can drag and drop information or draw something on the screen. During videos, I can add questions in that stop the video and record responses. The real time feedback allows me to adjust the presentation/ information quickly and efficiently. It also allows the students to quickly see where there classmates stand on mastery of the content- and hear ideas who in a traditional classroom might be "voiceless" because they are more timid in large groups. Nearpod gives every student a chance to share ideas and participate without being put on the spot... and in turn gives me more relevant feedback because I'm literally able to check in with EVERY student, not just the vocal minority.

# data[].attributes.body
I like using Blooket. It is game based and the students seem to enjoy using it. It's easy to create a Blooket or use ones that are already created. Some of the students have created their own and I've let them share them with the class when they have earned free choice time. I have also grouped students to have them create ones for topics we are learning in the classroom.

# data[].attributes.body
I would like to find opportunities to use Padlet in my classroom for formative assessments. It is such a quick and easy way to get student feedback and to gauge students understanding of content. Padlet would work great as an entrance or exit ticket. I also want to get back to using Kahoot more often in my class since students really enjoy participating in these types of assessments.

Being at a small Lutheran school we don't have 1:1 tech... yet. I use a lot of exit tickets, thumbs up/ down and white boards for quick checks. When our tech finally comes in I would love to utilize Seesaw and Socrative more. I like Seesaw to be able to have them do quick reviews during their down time with me while I'm with another grade. I like that they can also record themselves since I don't always get to listen to every one read aloud. Socrative looks good because I can create quick quizzes at their level to check their understanding.

# data[].attributes.body
I have used many of the tools mentioned here...exit tickets, Edpuzzle, Kahoot, Blooket, etc. The one I love and my students love is Jeopardy. I have Jeopardy reviews for many of my units and students LOVE them! They always ask me to post it in Google Classroom so they can use it to study more for the test. They usually have a partner and a small whiteboard they write their answers on. It gives me instant data about where they need more help, keeps things fun and energetic in the classroom and provides a different type of formative or review. It also helps when I have a 'surprise' for the winners!

I have used an assortment of formative assessment techniques. Kahoot; white boards and simply asking for understanding. I have started using exit tickets that are in our math curriculum. These tickets are used at the end of each lesson in the modules. I have used the results to work one on one or in small groups with kids to help them hone in on their math skills.

# data[].attributes.body
I used exit tickets for the first time (I know, I'm late to the party.) The kids struggled with rating themselves. One student was worried that if he gave himself a four, I would make him teach it to the students who were struggling (which he did NOT want to do.) Once we discussed the purpose of the ticket, they were honest about their skills and appreciated knowing that we could go over that concept again if we needed to. When I used this in math it was clear to me that all three of my 6th graders grasped the day's topic and were ready to move on.

I would really like to find a way to incorporate Flipgrid into my classroom. I had fun playing around with it so I know my students would have a good time using it as well. I could use it to have students demonstrate their knowledge on a subject or even use it as a reflection tool. I could even see using it as a way for students to teach each other concepts digitally.

I love using Kahoot and Quizziz for reviews before a summative assessment. Students can work individually or in teams which can help with the low level anxiety. I also love edpuzzle for reinformcement videos and learning checks

I would like my students to be able to use formative assessments as a way to be more independent in their learning. Thats why I think it's a great idea to use "Spot the Mistake" so students can individually find what is wrong with the work that is being presented to him. Students learn best from their own mistakes.

# data[].attributes.body
I have used self assessments to understand what specific areas students need help in. I've found this is effective in understanding students in the classes I've done clinical experiences in because the students are able to go into as much detail as they want. They can share their honest thoughts that they may not get a chance to share aloud. This is a simple way to help students through their misunderstandings and understand their concerns.

As a Title I paraprofessional, I do not have access to iPads or Chromebooks for each student that I work with. I involve the students in several non-tech assessments such as exit tickets, thumbs, and white board work. I recently had a group of students finish prewritten, incomplete sentences and then switched boards to have other peers read. It was a quick assessment of sentence building (capitals, punctation) and reading skills.

I was reminded by Christy's response of how much I love using individual whiteboards for formative assessment. There is an element to them that students find more relaxing because it isn't difficult to erase and change answers yet I can get a response from each student to see where they are at in their understanding of the concept. I find they work best for math problems or short answers. I do use them regularly for practice in small group instruction but haven't used them in whole group instruction in awhile.

I did the formative assessment, the 3 minute pause with my students. They really liked it. We have been talking about verbs. We brainstormed different verbs on the board. They each had to write a sentence using one of the verbs. When they were done, they met with a partner and read their sentences to each other.

One formative assessment I like to use is white boards. My students enjoy using them because I often give free draw time when we're done. I A simple way I use them is in phonices....for example, I give them 3 sounds, they write the corresponding letters and sound out the word. Or if we are working on blends, I tell them a word and they write the blend they hear, etc. White boards are a very simple way to see where students are in order to guide my instruction or create groups based on need,e tc.

I have had the paid version all year. I was able to get my school to buy it. It was worth every penny. I structure my whole class around my PearDeck. You can use PearDeck to present or set it so it's student paced. When schilars are absent, I have them go through the student-paced slides. It tells me who completed them and who didn't.

Students can even collaborate to create questions themselves.  And GimKit Ink allows students to create a product and publish it so their sharing goes beyond just the teacher.

I have just started using Nearpod in my classroom, but have not used the formative assessment side of it yet.  I have created some lessons because it is a great way to bring multimedia materials together.  I am virtual for the year, but am planning on using Nearpod for math exit tickets as soon as I can get them set up.  I think that will give me a good real time formative assessment of who needs more help on the concept.  I do use Jamboard for that process right now, but I like the aspect that students can privately write down their answers in Nearpod and I can see them all at once.

I like using 2.5' X 3' white boards in groups.  Each group is given a certain concept and has to illustrate it.  After all are completed, we have the groups walk around and look at each others work (gallery walk)

I like the use of whiteboards so that every student can answer every question and I am able to quickly check which students understand the material.  I also like Google Forms because of the instant results.

In the past, I have used whiteboards for quick formative assessments in my math classroom. I would write a problem to solve on the board and each student would solve on their whiteboard. I would walk around looking at their work as they solved and then they would hold up their boards after they had a solution. I feel like this helped me understand my students because it allowed me to see them solving problems in real time and provide reteaching instantly.

A few years ago I used Plickers a lot for quick checks about where students were within the writing process or to get a gauge on their understanding of a class novel. I'm not sure why I stopped using them, but this gave me a good push to start using them again!

I currently use exit and entry slips with my students. I work as a literacy tutor with first and second graders in small groups. I do not have access to technology when I am with my students that I see.
I have seen SeeSaw before when my son was virtual. I really liked how it has all different kind of options for the students and teacher.

I have used a lot of digital formative assessment tools with students (Pear Deck, Kahoot, etc.) so it's hard to find new things.  But I really liked VideoAnt for collaborative annotation of videos.  I could see having students get into groups and annotate on different videos and then jigsaw their learning.

I have really enjoyed using Peardeck on my Google slides in Google classroom. It saves me time not to upload recorded you-tube videos when my students need to hear my voice; not see my face. We can dialog later on the weekly group zoom call. They like to replay my recorded dictation until they can fill in the blanks with the vocabulary that they hear.

Jen Davidson - I really like using exit tickets to assess whether students understand the concept that I have taught during a lesson, so that I can figure out what students need more support right away.

I really like using Google Forms for gathering feedback.  It allows me to gather data and then see visual feedback of the results.  This is often helpful to get a quick temperature check of my audience so I can adjust further instruction and sharing.

I have added Pear Deck to my Google Slides and plan to add mid lesson checks.  I have used paper exit tickets in the past and have generally relied on question asking, a 4,3,2,1 finger scale of understanding and teacher monitoring to assess formatively during a lesson.  I like the idea of adding a quick tech check to my daily slides.

I really like the idea of checking for understanding as we go and having some record of it. I like that Edpuzzle allows you to create your videos (or you can use others that have been created) and embed questions. This allows you to see what they are understanding on the individual and class levels and you can go back and reference it if needed as you plan what to do next in terms of instruction

I am going to begin using Entrance Tickets on days we will be discussing a reading to collaborate with students on our objectives for that discussion. This will allow us to share responsibility for contributing to the group, and will help me know that students are getting what they want out of those discussions of texts. Because my goals and interests in looking at a text might be different than theirs, this allows us all to have a stake in the conversation. I can imagine these entrance tickets might say things like, "Can we talk about what x term means in this article?" or "I need help understanding the paragraph on the top of p. 5" or "I'm interested in the connections between this text and what X said about Y in the paper we read last week."

My school district is using Seesaw as the learning platform for virtual instruction and I love it!  I really like how teachers can create their own assignments/post videos on their for everyone to complete or only certain individual students.  There is also a library of tasks already ready to go, teachers just need to search around for one that fits what they want students to do and click assign.  With Seesaw students are able to demonstrate their learning in a variety of ways so it really does diversify and touch on the different multiple intelligence's for everyone.

I like to use Kahoots because they are so easy to make and  provide quick feedback on where students are.  Students seem to enjoy doing them as well.

I have used google forms, as simple as they can be it is easy to collect data from.  I like to do virtual daily check-ins since we can't see students to see how they're doing face-to face.  I also am looking forward to trying out answergarden

We use SeeSaw. We are able to create or search for anything that we desire to use. The students can demonstrate their learning on a variety of templates, and in a variety of ways. (Drawing tools, writing tools, voice recording, video recording).

I really like Quizizz. I have used Quizizz as a way for students to just have extra practice while reading a novel or formatting MLA to also having it be a graded quiz. I can create questions or use other teacher created question. And the Memes are hilarious!
