YoTeach!
YoTeach!
Whether you're looking for conversation starters, exit tickets, or formative assessment opportunities, this tool has you covered. Ask kids to create and post an original haiku, and have the class vote for their favorites. Let kids teach each other facts they've learned about historical figures, scientific discoveries, technological revolutions, or different cultural traditions. Show a film related to your content, and let kids discuss as they watch it, perhaps sparking a lively debate about a real or fictional character's motivations. Take a poll to see which real or virtual field trip interests kids the most (but be aware that students can vote for all available options).

Go to https://yoteachapp.com/ and sign up for a teacher account (on the right side of the page). (That is simply my suggestion; you do not have to create an account, but it's easier to track your rooms that way.)
Watch the two videos embedded to the right to learn what the teacher side to the site looks like as well as the student side.
For a little extra info on the site, take a look at this blog article by Richard Byrne. (FYI: the article is a couple years old, so some of the screenshots of the site might look slightly different.)
Create a YoTeach! room for your class. Make it work the best for your lesson according to what you learn about the platform in the videos. Just some tips...
You could use this as an online discussion for a video/movie you're watching in class.
This might be really useful for any online learners you currently have.
You could set up some virtual workspaces for your class.
Have your students take a poll on a certain topic!
The opportunities for this app are pretty widespread!
Teacher beware: this is essentially a chat room, so it is NOT recommended to leave the students unattended while using this tool. Using the Profanity Filter could be a good idea.
After you have used your Yo Teach! room in your lesson, please don't delete it. In the Google Form below, please give the shareable link to your room. An example is below.
If you set a password to your room, please share that along with the link.
Alternatively, you may download a .csv file of the room's conversation and share it with the Google Form below. For ease of sharing, you'll want to save the .csv file to Google Drive before sharing it. Please share it as an "Anyone on the internet can view" file.
