Formative Assessments
GimKit
Swept the nation this year with their "Among Us" version that students loved so much. A great game structure tool that can really get students engaged while they work.
PearDeck
Quick interactive tool that uses G-Suite to create quick and fun lessons. Used by English teachers a lot at our school.
Socrative
Allows teachers to create assessments really quickly. Easy layout and students are really a fan of the product as well.
EdPuzzle
Ask questions on videos that you love showing in class. Students have to answer the questions to move on into the video. Allows you to track where students are in the video.
Edulastic
Track assessments and align to standards all with one tool. Great tool for teachers to really grasp how their students are doing at any given time.
FlipGrid
My favorite tool when we were fully online teaching. Allows you to ask questions via text or video and then allow students to send video responses back. Fantastic tool.
Plickers
Plickers uses color-coded cards that students can hold up in-person or on their Google Meet/Zoom call. Makes it easy to see who is understanding a concept and who isn't.
Sprial A.C.
Part of Discovery Education. Ask questions in person or fully online and allow students to have a virtual whiteboard to answer questions all at one time.
Google Classroom
A quick question tool used right in Google Classroom for the millions of schools that use GC. Allows you to not have to leave your LMS and can be done quickly and effectively in any beginning or end to a lesson.
Formative
Formative makes formative assessments easier than your ever expected. It allows you to make multiple choice, T/F, and multiple answer questions in seconds. Super useful!
Google Forms
Another tool that allows you to not have to leave the Google family. Create Formative and Summative assessments and allow Google to grade for you as well if you are looking for a correct answer.
PollEverywhere
A really good exit ticket website. Can quick gauge and ask a question as students are leaving your classroom.
Quizizz
One of the most engaging of all the platforms listed. Students of all age love because Quizizz feels more like a game than actually studying.
SeeSaw
Used a lot by elementary teachers. Really great for creativity and quick feedback. Used at millions of schools around the nation as well.
Quizlet
Digital notetaking app that is used for studying for formative and summative assessments. Used a ton in my middle school classroom and students also enjoy because they can make Quizlet sets easy as well.
