Cool Ideas to Try

Sarah Giannetto did a live Kahoot with her Science class through Schoology Conferencing. She shared the Kahoot screen with the students. They were able to see the questions and play remotely.

Steph has created a rubric embedded within a schoology assignment which makes grading a breeze, and students can see expectations very clearly. Step sheet on the Schoology page.

Laura has been using the editing tool in screencastify. You can mash clips together from your webcam and screencastify, trim clips, edit out your bloopers, and even add a title or captions. Check out her lesson here.

Sarah Giannetto is conferencing with her students and using the whiteboard in conferencing to display a math mini-lesson. These conferences are recorded right in the tool. For those students who do not attend the conference, they can view the conference and have another touch point of her lessons.

Jason Muhlenkamp created a media album on Schoology. The kids then videoed their science experiments and uploaded to the media album. The students are able to see each others experiments.

Nancy Rapp is hosting "Recess" in schoology conferences and using breakout rooms to let kids play outburst.

Stephanie has created a rubric within schoology for students to view as they write their essays. She will be able to grade within it and students see their feedback in the rubric. So cool!

4th Grade Math/Sci outlining expectations - watch the end of the video if you need a chuckle.

Mackley doing google photo albums to keep kids connected - she has one for "caught reading," "At Home Learning," and "General Fun."

5th ELA team divvied out a read aloud and recorded it in a podcast using Anchorfm.

Tammy helped kids create their own school schedule by creating a google sheet and forcing kids to make a copy (so they didn't mess up her original)

Laura created a "right way" and "wrong way" video to help kids know how to use schoology. Johnny Karate's example cracked me up. Feel free to copy the link and post if yourself if your students need to hear this message.

See Kerri dressed up and giving a fun message/video about St. Patrick's Day. (Click open when the pop up comes up) Fun way to engage kids!

Markle is using a discussion board for kids to discuss CNN 10. There are already 79 posts!

Kerri is using different ways to have kids create videos for science extra credit. Check out this one by Owen Costa!
