Application Products Toolbox

1. Engagement- https://bouncyballs.org/
This website is a noise control indicator. The teacher or students can pick
what object they want to use to display their noise level. Theres options for
plastic, emoji, bubbles, and eyeballs. The louder the classroom is, the more
the objects will bounce around. By using this visual, students can see their
noise level and adjust accordingly.

2. Representation- Anchor Chart

This anchor chart can be used for a problem and solution lesson. This anchor
chart can be used as a visual for students. Students can use this anchor
chart as a reference when working on problem and solution. By including
pictures definitions and text definitions, I can appeal to various types of
learners.

3. Engagement- Stop Light Desk Tent

This tool can be used to quickly evaluate a students understanding. By
displaying this tool on their desk, the student can quickly let the teacher
know how much they understand the content. This tool can help teachers
because instead of asking each student how they are doing, the teacher can
quickly scan the room and see who they need to go help.

4. Action and Expression- Padlet

This Padlet can be used as a formative assessment after a prediction lesson.
The teacher can use a video or story for this lesson. The teacher can play the
video and stop it. Then, the student can predict what is going to happen
next. Students with typing difficulties can use the voice to text capability on
their devices to help them complete this activity. The teacher can access this
Padlet using the QR Code or the website link.

 5. Action and Expression- Plickr Cards
Plickr cards are a way for teachers to do a quick assessment of the students.
Each card is different so the students cannot copy one another. The cards
encourage students to work hard to get their answer. The plickr cards are
great for a classroom because it is a different type of assessment that
teachers can use instead of giving the students assessments on paper. Plickr
cards are an example of action and expression because the teacher is
meeting the needs of all students in the classroom. Also, the teacher is
allowing the students to express their knowledge in a different way.
