Plickers intregration
Plickers is a great tool to use when you want to give a multiple choice, true/false or want to give a survey. Every student has their own plickers card to provide a response with. Students will rotate the card to show their best response. I use my projector and screen to show the question. Every card has a number on it that corresponds with the students names and letters (A-D) that correspond with the answers. Think of the card as a QR code. Videos
Variations:
Teacher can verbally give the students a question or project them on a screen.
Teaching Suggestions/Tips:
Purchase a set of 40 cards on Amazon for $20.
Adaptations for Students with Disabilities:
A student or aide could hold the card for the student.
