What Are the Online Resources
Additional resources that can assist students with in class, and at home study are listed below:

Kahoot: An interactive platform to gamify in class information and increase student engagement.
Gimkit: Gimkit is a classroom game-show platform where students compete by answering questions on their electronic devices. Instead of earning points, students earn virtual currency, which they can "invest" during the game to boost their score. Games can be played live or can be assigned as independent practice. Students connect via game codes and can play in a web browser on any internet-connected device. They can compete against each other or collaborate in teams or as a whole class. In KitCollab mode, students help build the game by submitting questions before play begins. Teachers can download detailed student reports after every game.
Google Hangouts: Students can access live, face to face instuction via the computer by clicking the Google hangouts link for their teachers available on their wesbites and in their virtual classrooms.
