Socrative

This is my new favorite App/Website is called Socrative. This tool allows you to create multiple choice or open ended questions. It gathers the information and then creates a page with results!!!

I used this last week at a Math Center. Students had to answer open ended math questions! Be careful with open ended as you have to make sure you come up with all the possible correct answers!

It took me about 10 minute to create a 10 question quiz. You can even upload pictures into the question if there are any diagrams for science they need to see!!

For the results page I was able to see what percentage as a class we got right and who missed the question. You can either have the kids put their name or hide their identity!

Early Release Day - Staff members are tech learners, too!

While our students were home enjoying their time off from school on our 2/13 Early Release Day, BCES staff members Brought Their Own Device to different professional development sessions.  One team's focus was investigating technology tools to help promote students' mastery of math vocabulary.  Mrs. Boylan, Mrs. Carter, Mrs. Collins, Mrs. D'Elia, Mrs. Hunsberger, Ms. Page & Mrs. Shearer had fun learning and brainstorming ways they can use Linoit and the StoryKit app with students.  #lifelonglearners  #technologyrocks
