ReplyDeleteGoogle Classroom has been a fun and engaging way to get students to take on responsibility for their learning. Just getting second graders to be able to log in on a computer was challenging. When Laura suggested to assign iPads to students where they use the same one each time has been a great help! We love Google Classroom and all of the apps that come with it! These students will be ready to use technology as they move to the next grade level.
ReplyDeleteOne of my students noticed the clipboard icon on their classroom homepages. This allows them to view and access all assignments quickly without even opening the classroom. We are loving that quick access feature!
ReplyDeleteI probably use Google Slides every single day. If it wasn't for the quick training sessions that Howard and Feck offer, I would have never even known about Google Slides! That (and curriculum writing) have provided a gateway for me to learn how to use all of the Google Apps. I'm really enjoying Google each day and I am not sure how I made it without Google Drive prior to last year!
