I recently attended the MWGS and went to a Pear Deck session.  The below is a link to get the premium version of Pear Deck for the rest of this year.  Share!  Enjoy! :D

Also new... VOCABULARY... there is a really cool vocabulary builder/ game that you can have students play and the vocab list can be sent to Quizlet and Google Classroom.

EXTENSION: If you add the extension in slides, you can add Pear Deck questions/ responding to existing slides... only takes a little "extra" effort but has really cool interactive results!
