Technology Tools

Teachers often hear jokes and jibes about having 2 months off during the summer, but we know that we spend it doing professional development workshops and planning for the new school year. One of the things my teacher brain has focused on this summer is learning about technology tools that enhance lesson plans and classroom management. Here's some of my favs:

CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT
Class Dojo

Go Noodle -Get your students moving in between lessons to burn off energy!
Remind -Classroom messaging app to communicate with students, families, and staff
Online Stopwatch-Variety of fun timers to assist with time management
Live Binders -Organize your teaching resources in an online binder for f-r-e-e!
 
GAMES/BOOKS/QUIZZES
Brainpop Jr -Subject videos followed by fun quizzes and jokes. Some videos are for free if your school doesn't have an account.
ABCYA-Games for grade pre-K through 5
Scholastic Study Jams-Reinforce math and science topics with animated videos









Kahoot -Create online review games








   
  

Quizizz.com -Create your own quizzes or use those created by other teachers.
