Polls
Polls
The polling feature for meetings allows you to create single choice or multiple choice polling questions for your meetings. You will be able to launch the poll during your meeting and gather the responses from your attendees. You also have the ability to download a report of polling after the meeting. Polls can also be conducted anonymously, if you do not wish to collect participant information with the poll results.
Each poll can have multiple questions. If your poll has multiple questions, the participants must complete each question before submitting the answers.
You can create a poll while you are in a Zoom meeting, but it will take you to the settings section to do so.
***Special Note - Requires a paid account***

Set up your breakout rooms to be escape rooms. Students have to work together to end the meeting early.
Set up your breakout rooms for the different ways students may want to work.
Breakout room #1: Students that want to work independently.
Breakout room #2: Students that want to work alone, but like to collaborate with classmates minimally.
Breakout room #3: Students that want to collaborate pretty much the entire time (extroverts).
Breakout room #4: Students who want a one-to-one with the teacher.
If you create a slide for each breakout room group and have students work there, you can set it to grid view and see which groups need help and track their progress while on Zoom. To do this, create a slide deck with identical slides for the number of groups you’ll have. Different colors or symbols help to differentiate the groups. Share a link to the slide deck in the chat with your class before you go to breakout rooms, then students will have access to the doc.
Make a copy of the slide deck here.

Share your screen and display a graphic organizer. Select a student (s) to insert text on the organizer. You could also create a Google slide deck with the graphic organizer on multiple slides and have the students complete the assignment in Breakout rooms.
As you are reviewing material with you class you can underline, highlight, or make other markings to help emphasize the material the students are looking at.
Share your screen so that your students are seeing a document you created with an image, diagram, map, etc. Then have one or more identify something on the image using the annotation tools.
The Spotlight tools functions as a pointer.

I would be interested in class management inside if Zoom. I see a lot of our teachers struggling with this and it’s hard to give the right answers to their questions.

Q : Any issue with camera on?

A : No, since it is school policy. If a child misbehaves, they get warned then removed.
Afterwards, phone conference with parent. Teacher only had this issue once and afterwards, no more issues.

A : It all comes down to relationships...The teacher needs to build them quick and strong. And it is how the teacher speaks to their students. They don't want to disappoint her.
