We review social studies content with Kahoot games. It allows me to see which students need addition review time and to see if as a class we are prepared for an upcoming quiz or test. It tells you, by student, how they performed overall. It also tells you, by question, the percent of students who answered the question correctly, so you can reteach. A sample of what appears on the Smartboard while the formative assessment is being played is at the bottom.
Google Presentation: Tools of Navigation
Students were studying the tools of navigation during our exploration unit. They were to find pictures and define the given navigational tools and terms. The descriptions the students provided showed their understanding the term.
Interactive Notebooks
Students create interactive responses to lessons in their interactive notebooks. These responses were for the lesson about the Bill of Rights. By looking at the rights and illustrations created, I can assess how well they understood the lesson.
