We LOVE Kahoot! I have used it for practicing vocabulary, math, and the kids also just love the random quizzes, like All About Football. They like to play in teams, which builds classroom community, and they are actively reading and thinking.

NearPod. I think it has potential to be hugely supportive of remote and hybrid instruction, but I do not know anything about it.

I discovered ToonTastic this spring and my kids ate it up! I plan to use it this year as a tool for writing fiction in Writing Workshop. It is only available as a mobile app through Google. Kids are provided the plot mountain and tons of settings/characters. They create individual scenes with recorded dialogue, background music, and animation that become a cartoon. So motivating and supportive of all elements of writing fiction!

I could teach you how to use PlanBook or Class Dojo. (PlanBook requires yearly subscription. But it is SO worth it.)

# data[].attributes.body
I've explored Notability and it has a lot of great uses. I am just not very comfortable with it. I need to as it can replace a lot of items either hard copy or in computer files and can synch with my Google Acct.

# data[].attributes.body
I love using PlanBook online as my lessons are easy access. I can quickly add standards, adjust lessons if there is a surprise assembly or 60% or more of a groups is gone, etc. It shows groups, times, lessons with standards, etc. Easy way to share LP's with Principal. I also really like Class Dojo to send messages, pics of student work, and student videos to parents.  It is a great tool for parent communication and as a behavior incentive (Students earn points for prechosen behaviors and could lose points for others. They use points towards rewards. )

# data[].attributes.body
Our class loves youtube. We use it for math calendar songs, transitions, and if we can't find a hard copy of a book we can usually find it on youtube

# data[].attributes.body
I love using ClassDojo. It's a great way to stay connected with parents. It's easy to share pictures, classroom news, and communicate behavior.

# data[].attributes.body
I would love to explore using SeeSaw more in the classroom. My grade level partners love using it, and I love hearing about all the things they are using it for in the classroom. This is my first year with 1:1 iPads, so I think next year after I have had some more experience with a 1:1 classroom I will be more comfortable with adding another digital tool.

# data[].attributes.body
I really love using Epic in the classroom. It gives easy access to thousands of books at all reading levels and in every genre. I have used Epic to find books for researching U.S. Regions for Social Studies. I have even created a collection on Forces and Motion for Science.

I feel that I am proficient at using the Class Dojo App. I have all but one parent connected in my classroom. I have used it for the past 4 years in my 3rd and 4th grade classrooms. I like how easy it is to communicate with parents. I make sure I send homework daily and spelling words weekly on Class Dojo. I love also how I can see whether or not a parent has seen a Dojo message. There are many more features of Class Dojo that I could explain...character videos, teachers toolkit, class story, quiet hours etc. This is a great app to have in the classroom for manaegment!

# data[].attributes.body
I would also like to learn more about FrontRow. Most of my students have pretested on all of the math topics listed. They have taken the reading pretest and word work pretest. These pre tests give me current levels of where the student performs, that I feel are reliable. I, however, do not know what to do next other than assign articles.

# data[].attributes.body
I really love using NearPod. I have used this frequently during science and social studies! I used a great lesson on Rural VS. Urban communities. The students got to explore NYC as an Urban City and design their own billboard. I have only used the teacher paced lessons. I would be interested in using some of the student paced lessons. This digital tool is easy to navigate. You can also see students responses right away, and share their responses with the whole class.

ClassDojo has been the app I use to track behavior data, use as motivation, and to communicate with parents. I post my website links into the class feed so parents get use to going through my website to get to my youtube channel. (insert wink emoji) I use the personal student feed as a portfolio, but have heard SeeSaw may be a better app for that concept. The last two years I have had 100% parent participation.

A couple other teachers told me about Front Row Ed. I am trying it out in my classroom along with another 3rd grade teacher in my building. We are curious if this is will be a great tool to use in prep for MAP testing that gives better feedback than Kahn academy. As of now, it is going well. I need more time watching tutorials to use it with fidelity.

# data[].attributes.body
My Youtube channel is so important to me since I share so many videos of my kiddos to their parents.  I love showing the kids videos of themselves being great learners as well.  Playlists and subscriptions make my life easier.  Next year's goal is to clean it up and be more efficient with it.

I would really like to know more about how to use my iPad as a digital whiteboard and produce tutorial videos to post to my YouTube Channel.

# data[].attributes.body
I use Remind all the time to send announcements to parents and students.  It is a wonderful communication tool.  I can send messages anytime, and parents can choose to receive the messages via text or email.  Additionally, I can schedule messages to go out at a specific date/time, making it super easy for me to input a message whenever I think of it - even late at night or early in the morning.
I also love Google Slides. Having used it daily for the past semester to produce our school's morning announcements, I like how easy it is to use and then download in various forms for posting to our website and scrolling on the TVs throughout the building all day long.

# data[].attributes.body
My favorite digital tool continues to be Nearpod.

iPad Screenshots

Classroom turns your iPad into a powerful teaching assistant, helping a teacher guide students through a lesson, see their progress, and keep them on track. With Classroom, you can easily launch the same app on every student iPad or Mac at the same time or launch a different app for each group of students. Classroom helps teachers focus on teaching so students can focus on learning.

* Lock into a single app to help students focus
* Lock screens to pause work or refocus your class
* Mute audio on student devices
See what your students see with Screen View
* See an overview of all student screens at once
* Focus on a single student screen
* Students are informed when their screens are being viewed

* Students can also share with you
Share student work on the classroom Apple TV
* Show the great work your students are doing to the entire class
* Use AirPlay to wirelessly present a student's screen
* Students are informed when their screens are being presented
Reset forgotten passwords right in the classroom
* Reset a Managed Apple ID password without calling IT
Organize students using groups

* Perform actions on entire groups or on individual students within groups
Great for use with both 1:1 and Shared iPad student devices
Supports IT-managed classes or teacher-created classes
All actions take place over the local network only

Requirements

iPad with iOS 14.4 or later
Bluetooth and Wi-Fi enabled on both student and teacher devices
Students within Bluetooth range of the teacher running Classroom

* Create smart lesson plans using agendas to keep on track with the daily schedule
* Assign actions for each task in an agenda to make it even easier to use multiple tools for learning at the same time
* Assign time expectations and use the built-in timer for each task to maximize instructional minutes
* Open a class directly from an agenda to get started right away
* Save and duplicate agendas to quickly use again for the same or different class
* Open multiple Classroom windows to create, edit, and preview agendas and classes in real time

So many issues!

As a teacher in middle school, I truly appreciate this app. It helps to make sure kids are on task and not just looking busy while playing a game. However, each time our roster changes at the end of a nine weeks it takes several weeks for the app to update to our new class rosters. This nine weeks we are six weeks into it and I still do not get to see my students online classes. They all show up as off-line even though we checked all the settings necessary. It has become a frustration. Whatever reason, each time I login I have to accept notifications again. Then when I "end a class" it takes me to a summary of the apps used rather than to my roster page. It is a love-hate relationship with this app currently. I would love to love it all over again soon!

Good app, but needs just a few improvements.

I am a third grade teacher, and love to use this app. It makes my life so much easier when trying to navigate students to an app or website. When I use it and lock the app, so students can't close it and get on something else it works beautifully. If I try and lock it on a website, students can click out of it. Students can click icons at the bottom of the webpages and manipulate their way out of the website to others. Needs to stop them if the address doesn't contain the prefix to that website they were locked on. The other thing that would be helpful is an icon students can click on to send the teacher a message and vice versa, but not each other.

Great, when it works

No, I as a teacher cannot STALK my students. I can only see what they have on their screens. If they aren't doing things they shouldn't be doing they have no need to worry about it.

Unfortunately the app doesn't always work. It worked well for all my classes for the first week of classes, now suddenly everyone is "offline." I've checked several students' iPads and they have Bluetooth enabled and they are on the school wi-fi. I'm not sure what the problem is and why it occurred suddenly. At this point the app is useless.
