Have you settled into
the calmness called Summer Break yet? As you are chillin' and playing Candy Crush or whatever your guilty pleasure is, why not check out a piece of technology that just might work for you and your students.
For most of us the school year and all of its craziness is just
around the corner and you and I will be expected to ‘hit the ground running’. What in the what does that really mean? It means that our plans will need to be done,
our rooms need to be decorated, and our technology game needs to have improved
over last year.
Technology game? What in that world is that? Well for me it means I should be prepared to
roll out engaging, exciting, rigorous activities using more than just paper
& pencil and/or talk ‘n’ chalk.
While perusing my school
email yesterday I came across a sale I have already taken advantage of. www.nearpod.com
is hosting a 50% off sale on their programs!
Repeating…50% off. Now you don’t
have to be a mathematician to know that this is quite a sale! Also,
there are many FREE presentations you can download and use in your classrooms!!
“With Nearpod you create
or download interactive presentations to engage your students using any device”. Taken directly from the Nearpod website.
Go ahead and create your
account. You will love it. When students are on a Nearpod presentation,
they are forced to move at your pace.
Students stay interested and the lessons are good for preview, review,
or just reinforcement of topics.
Once you check it out,
please comment on this post and let me know what you think.
