Tools

Seesaw
AwwApp
Scratchwork
Google Keep
Screencastify Chrome Extension
Padlet
Kami Chrome Extension
Google Docs
Google Classroom

Strategies

Task students with solving math equations and showing their work on collaborative whiteboard tools like AwwApp or Scratchwork. Students can take a picture or write an equation and use a variety of pen tools and a LaTex equation editor to solve problems in a digital workspace.
Convert a math worksheet from Word to Google Docs and assign it to students using Google Classroom. Students can use Google Keep create handwritten solutions and can insert their Keep notes into the Doc as an image file.
Task students with talking about how they solved a math equation by having them record their metacognition using Seesaw, Padlet, or the Screencastify Chrome Extension.
Convert a math worksheet to PDF and assign to students using Google Classroom. Students can open the PDF with the Kami Chrome Extension and can show their work by annotating on top of the PDF. The annotated version of the file can then be turned in to the teacher.
