bit.ly/DesmosFCPS
Desmos is a free online software that teachers can use to promote student engagement and get real-time formative feedback in all mathematics classes. Desmos has several calculators that student can use, but it is more than that. Classroom Activities engage students and allow teachers to become coaches in their classroom that can facilitate questions and discussions. Desmos is a great resource that supports our NCTM Principles and Mathematical Practices, as well as Kagan practices.
Students in Fayette County Public Schools can go directly to the Desmos calculator through the App Launcher on their chromebooks, or they can go access it through desmos.com. For participation in a Classroom Activity, FCPS students should use their Google Single Sign-On through student.desmos.com.
Teachers can find Desmos activities at teacher.desmos.com, or through any web search. They can also create their own activities through Activity Builder.

We want to know how Desmos is utilized in your classes. Please fill out this form to share your Desmo-ments with us on the FCPS Highlight Hub!
