Chrome Extension for Google Slides

I love to walk around my Classroom as I provide instruction. I learned early on that this was important to minimizing off-task behaviors.

There are a couple tools available on the market that work with your slides presentations. One popular tool is Pear Deck. I'll be honest and say that I'm not as big of a fan. I know there are benefits by being able to add questions for students to respond to and controlling their screens. I just found it time consuming for my purposes.

Instead, I use the Google Chrome Extension Remote for Slides. It's a very simple tool that allows you to use your phone or tablet to progress through the Slides as you walk around your classroom. Basically, it allows you to have a remote.

If you're interested, search the Chrome Store and they have a video walking you through what it looks like.

Freebie Focus: All About Me Science Beaker

I hunted for new and free resources and found this get-to-know-me activity. It is a beaker for students to complete on themselves and can be found here . The creator, The Crafty Teacher TX , permitted me to share this resource. It is appropriate for a middle school classroom and has questions that are great ice-breakers, like if you were on a deserted island, what three things would you need? This could be assigned on the first day of school or completed in class and posted on the walls.
