How I Like Working With Padlet
I liked working with Padlet. It is user friendly and offers a great way to organize and store relevant information pertaining to a subject or unit. I found it easy to collaborate, and my colleagues receiving the request from me liked it as well. Here is the link to my Padlet.
Two Ways I Could Use A Tool Like Padlet In My Teaching
One way to use this in my teaching is to digitize the way that I store information and lessons pertaining to a unit of study. We will be hatching chicks in the Spring. I can link great books, videos, and other info on this Padlet to be used and ready to go. I don’t have to go looking for anything. It will all be organized on one page.
I could also see loading information with safe links to videos, books, and other resources for my first graders to access.
Description of The Collaborative Project
Our First grade teaching team is collaborating to get info and activities around the hatching of chicks onto one page. We included everything from our original Design plan, notes, photos, videos, books, lesson plans, activities, and journaling.
