FlipGrid in the Classroom

Flipgrid in the Classroom

I was so excited to use Flipgrid for the first time in my classroom. It was very user friendly for my upper elementary students. First my student created Blackout poems from various articles. After completing their poems and framing them with construction paper, students videoed themselves on Flipgrid reading their poems. This gave my students to opportunity to read their poems in their own voice, without the stress of standing in front of their peers. This was a simple way to introduce Filpgrid to my students so that in the future, we can continue to use these videos in our learning. To check out Flipgrid, visit https://info.flipgrid.com/

I may not be a member of their particular community, but I follow and learn about new programs, apps and approaches from the work they are doing and sharing. This has been beneficial for me when I’m looking for something new or if I’m looki...

Why Use an ePortfolio?

COLLAPSE I already touched on this in a previous post, but as teachers, we are so much more than a one day formal evaluation or the answers to the handful of questions we are asked during an interview. I love how the ePortfolio can give some insight into who we all are as teachers, show personality, and show how we are all in this journey. This can be a great asset when applying for future positions, but I see it as so much more, too. Now that I have started to establish relationships with my classmates, I am excited to learn from their blogs and ePortfolios just as if I've walked into their classroom during my conference or after school to chat about the day. I plan to use this to show snippets into my classroom for others to learn from, but also, I hope to gain suggestions and tips from those who comment. My classroom is no where near where I want it to be as far as integrating technology consistently. I feel these ePortfolios will provide another place I can draw ideas from...
