If 4th or 5th grade students need more practice with directions and computational thinking, here's a site you can have them work on for a day or 2: https://www.abcya.com/games/robot_islands. It gets tricky really fast, so they will need your help! Work through them ahead of time! If you need some hints, check out this tutorial on YouTube.

Genially is available at https://app.genially.com/teams/69305176feec93c624b459ae/home. Students can make E-cards, list, surveys, etc.. Templates are provided. You set up your teacher account by logging in with Google and then share a class code with the students to fill in to get signed up.  There's a learning curve. Play around with it awhile and get comfortable with it before trying to introduce it to students.
