2. Parent Communication and Involvement
Communication is key.
Class Dojo, Remind, Google Forms
and QR codes are some of the tools I

grades, conduct and the day-to-day
goings on in the class and school.

● Classroom Notes
● Anchor Charts
3. Plickers can be that go to app for:
● Quick check formative assessments
● Instant feedback

applications that can be download to help blend learning
● Whole Group Lessons (Interactive white boards, mimios, etc.)
● Ipad enter/exit tickets

7. ● Using Google Slides as an
instructional tool as well as a
way to create student
authentic work

collaborate with each other as
well as with me while creating
slides for their science project Link to student created Google Slides
8. Youtube and Livebinders use for
instruction as well as to highlight
professional responsibilities
