My name is Elizabeth Griggs and I have been teaching for 11 years all at Gautier Middle School. I currently teach 8th-grade math and accelerated math. I love getting to know my students and showing them how to have a love for math and learning. I am also the cheer and girls basketball coach. I love coaching and I am extremely competitive! I am also the Student Council sponsor at GMS. I currently live in Gautier and you can spot me at various sports events throughout the district.
Using games to engage students in the classroom. Video #1 discusses gamification in the classroom as a tool to reward students for various achievements and a new interactive game, GimKit. GimKit was created by a student, for students! My kids love it!
Video #2 covered Quizziz and Kahoot! which are both online quizzes for students. These are interactive and can be completely customized by teachers! Check it out! You can also play a sample of each game that I am currently hosting! Good luck, have fun, and keep on gaming!
