This is a checklist to use to check websites for reliability. This can be used for extra practice looking for high quality sites or during the research process. Students must look for certain criteria in their selected website. They then add up the totals to see if the website can be used as a reliable source of information. Included is a printable PDF file as well as an editable Google Doc. This way you can change the website evaluation before printing it out for your students or you can provide them a digital copy.

Use these Snapchat Exit Tickets as a formal assessment for your students. These Exit Tickets allow your students to show what they’ve learned in a fun way. This set includes 17 different exit tickets to print for students individually or to hang in your classroom for daily use. Exit tickets can reflect a specific question asked by a teacher, can ask students to simply rate their understanding numerically or even ask students to briefly summarize a concept or answer a problem writing their response.

These are blank Snapchat templates. Give them to students to write a story, draw a picture or whatever you like! This resource comes with: Full Page View Phone View 4 Per Page Each come in 4 colors; Yellow, Red, Blue, Gray

I use a lot of technology in my classroom. This survey is helpful to find out what kind of technology my students have access to at home as well as which students need extra support at school. The questions ask what types of devices the students have access to as well as if they are allowed to use them. I also like feedback on what parents think in terms of using technology within classroom. Print this resource out and get feedback from your students parents in no time!

This ice breaker is great to use with all your students for ANY grade! Students fill out “Social Media” styled profiles. It is a great way to learn about your students in an interactive way. This ice breaker can be used in two different ways: Print: • Print out the page and have your students fill in the information and draw pictures. Collaboration: • If your class has access to Chromebooks, iPads or computers you can have your students collaborate on the document. • Share your Google Slide with your class. • At the bottom of each Social Media page is a student number. Assign each student a number. All your students can work on their page all on the same Google Slide at the same time! • This Google Slide is set-up for 30 students!
