Here’s a short excerpt where I highlight the power of developing authentic learning experiences with digital tools: This interactive presentation tool is in my book #FormativeTech: Meaningful, Sustainable, and Scalable Formative Assessment with Technology. If you’ve visited my blog before, you know I’m a big fan of Nearpod.
With just a few clicks, I removed a couple of slides with extra information I didn’t think was necessary for my group. Although this particular lesson was designed for Kindergarten, I made a few changes to make sure it was Pre-K friendly. This way students could take part in a drawing activity and a virtual reality activity that wasn’t initially in the lesson. I found this great lesson on the life cycle of frogs and added a few additional activities. You can edit the lesson to tailor it to your group of students.
NEARPOD MY LIBRARY FREE
If you haven’t downloaded a lesson from Nearpod before, you can add either a free or paid lesson to your library. A quick keyword search in the Nearpod marketplace made it easy to find a lesson to share with this group. I knew this class was exploring life cycles of different animals.
I modified the most recent lesson I used with a group of Pre-K students from their library of pre-made content. The team at Nearpod has developed lots of content specifically for early learners. One of the highlights of this year has been working with an enthusiastic group of early learners in New York. Can you use Nearpod with early learners? You bet! This year I’ve had the chance to visit classrooms and work with teachers in different parts of the country.
