The teacher can also upload discussion topics to create meaningful classroom conversations. ]]> 2018-06-13 04:17:58 UTC https://padlet.com/ashley_curtis/8spao0yp7dzu/wish/266943113 ashley_curtis https://padlet.com/ashley_curtis/8spao0yp7dzu/wish/266943417 2018-06-13 04:22:00 UTC https://padlet.com/ashley_curtis/8spao0yp7dzu/wish/266943417 ashley_curtis https://padlet.com/ashley_curtis/8spao0yp7dzu/wish/266943421 This online digital library is equipped with thousands of books, and the number is always growing. Similarly to the commonly known Accelerated Reader program, myOn has assessments at the end that can also be used for a grade. Teachers can use this program during their lessons, as well as for station work or small groups. ]]> 2018-06-13 04:22:05 UTC https://padlet.com/ashley_curtis/8spao0yp7dzu/wish/266943421 ashley_curtis https://padlet.com/ashley_curtis/8spao0yp7dzu/wish/266943721 Nearpod has been the most beneficial software to my classroom to date. I am able to use this program daily for quick mini lessons, as well as small group and station time. I have also used Nearpod to present content in a meaningful way to my peers for professional development, and it was well-received. The best part? All types of embedded question styles. ]]> 2018-06-13 04:26:11 UTC https://padlet.com/ashley_curtis/8spao0yp7dzu/wish/266943721 ashley_curtis https://padlet.com/ashley_curtis/8spao0yp7dzu/wish/266943945 Google Forms is an easy and engaging way to collect data on any group of people, be it students or faculty, parents or support staff. The form is quickly sent through email, or can be added to a google classroom for easier access. I have used google forms to find out about phonics instruction in my school, and I have seen my admin team use it for a variety of things in my school as well. ]]> 2018-06-13 04:29:16 UTC https://padlet.com/ashley_curtis/8spao0yp7dzu/wish/266943945
