EdPuzzle


Summary: Create videos that students watch and are asked questions as they view the video.

Advantages: 

  • EdPuzzle communicates with Google Classroom and can be assigned to students through it. 
  • Students can watch videos at their own pace. 
  • The video will pause if the students click off the screen.
  • There are several videos already created by other teachers that you can modify and save to fit your needs.
  • Helps with e-Learning since you can create an interactive lesson for your students.
  • Collaborating with other teachers in your building is easy.


Disadvantages: I have not figured out how to record their scores for the videos, if that is something you are interested in.

Use:

1. Create your account and search for videos on whatever topic you're interested in. (You can also upload your own video to start from scratch.)

2. When you select a video, you have the option to edit, copy, assign, or share.
Editing- allows you to modify the video to your needs

Copy- take the video as is to add to your collection

Assign- post on Google Classroom as is to your students

Share- get a link to email it or embed it online (see example below)

Nitrogen and Carbon Cycle Foldable

I was inspired to create foldables for my 6th graders on the carbon and nitrogen cycles after viewing one created by the blog " The Inspired Classroom ".  She had created a much cuter one for the water cycle.  Please forgive my pictures, descriptions, and handwriting. :)     If you would like a free copy of the nitrogen foldable or carbon foldable , you can find it at My Teachers Pay Teachers.

Pinterest: Find and Save Ideas

This is another one of those posts that I'm not sure why I have not written about it before! As a new teacher, I did not have a PLC for the first few years. There were some ideas I was able to borrow from teachers in my building, but I had to create my curriculum. That's where Pinterest became a huge time saver! How it works: Add the Chrome extension - as long as a picture is on the website you would like to save, you can create a brand-new pin. Download the app to your phone- sift through already created pins when you have downtime to get inspired. Use the website - You can create new pins like you would with a browser extension and find existing pins. It's easier to organize your pins, send pins, and add collaborators on the website (in my opinion). You can check out my science board here for some ideas I love and have been inspired by. You will also notice some of my creations as well.

Algae and Fertilizer Lab

 I am currently working on writing lesson plans for MS-LS2-4. I decided to offer a lab I created for the lesson plans as a stand-alone. You can find it here !
