![]() ![]() ![]() Padlet can be a great classroom tool for small groups of students participating in collaborative research. It is best to generate a culture in the classroom that celebrates mistakes so that students see them as the very best way to learn and grow.) Here is an example of a formative assessment/conclusion after an inquiry lesson with fraction manipulatives. (I don’t typically project these Padlets because sometimes students are sensitive of their work when it is new learning. This is a great time to figure out what students’ perceive to be the important points about their learning, and it also highlights the misconceptions. You can post a big question, such as your lesson’s essential question, or a specific question to determine who has met an exact objective. Formative AssessmentĪfter teaching a lesson, post a “ticket out the door” question to find what students learned that day. Here is a sample Padlet in the classroom designed for this purpose. Leave the Padlet projected for all to see, and have families post their name and a picture of themselves. At a back to school night or open house, it could be part of a scavenger hunt. Ask students to post a note with their name and something they did over the summer or something they are looking forward to learning during the upcoming school year. This could also be useful at a back-to-school night. Not even close to a 1:1 classroom? Leave a the Padlet open on a classroom computer and allow students to type their answer during independent work time, station time, or during transitions.Ĭreate a Padlet in the classroom for students (or faculty) to get to know one another. It is so simple, in fact, that you can create one on the fly in response to a lesson that changes direction mid-class. Secondly, it is SIMPLE to create and does not require many devices. I’ve used Padlet for teacher book studies and anything that I want students to collaborate on. The post-it note can include a note, a picture, a video, or a website. Anyone with the link can place a post-it on the bulletin board. First of all, it allows students (or teachers) to collaborate. If you haven’t heard of Padlet in the classroom and you’re looking to add more technology to your classroom, this is a great way to start. Throughout the fall, I will focus on ideas for using each classroom tool like Padlet in the classroom. A few weeks ago, I shared a list of my current “top five” of free or low-cost technology tools that I use in my classroom for Arts-Integration or STEAM lessons. ![]()
