GET PUMPED TEACHER FRIEND!

We are in the back to school spirit and we will be RAFFLING away TWO FREE year subscriptions to BerryWing’s Scan to Web app in this exciting post!  NO MORE HOMEWORK COLLECTION FOR YOU! Details below 🙂

 

 

Assuming you DO need to assign homework, what should be done with it?  Are you really going to collect and grade it every SINGLE day?  No way! The paper piles up!  It is too overwhelming, and I have stopped doing it.

If your bag is stuffed with student work,  DEFINITELY check out BerryWing’s Scan to Web smart phone app.   It’s a new, updated version!  You can easily save the data into a Google Sheet by using Google Forms.

This could be your new workflow:

  1. Walk around the class, verify assignment completion.
  2. With your phone or IPAD, scan a bar code taped to each student’s notebook to record credit or have a spreadsheet of codes on your clipboard to scan.
  3. Go to Google Drive and view your Google Sheets instantly.
    You can then use VLOOKUP in the Google Sheets to see who has not turned in their homework assignment.

Virtual Quizzes using Google Forms

Easy Delaney Cards.png

It’s 2019.
Are you still schlepping around paper in the classroom? Making photo copies? YUCK!
Who has time for that? NOT ME!
With Google Forms it is so easy to be paperless.
Google Forms allows you to collect data easily. I use it for the first day of school delaney cards, as worksheets, to collect volunteer information, polls, questionnaires, mid year evaluations and reflections.

In this post I will share with you my virtual quiz and exam system. Now, (If it has to be paper, I use a GROUP exam format – see my post on that system).

However, if you have computers in your classroom this is an easy way to cut down on PAPER!

Here is a link to the animations I use in this tutorial.

The Virtual Delaney Card – EASIEST TUTORIAL!

Easy delaney cards

As most of you already know, I am all about NO PAPER in the classroom! That is why a few years ago I moved to a virtual delaney card for the first day of school. It takes less then FIVE minutes… you won’t regret this easy change! You can write the link on the board so students can complete the delaney card as a homework assignment the first evening, or if you have computers in your room you can have students complete the information in real time.

Here is a link to the animations I use in this tutorial.
