If you haven't been using Pear Deck in your classroom, you need to!
Pear Deck is a great tool that turns Google Slide presentations into interactive lessons for students. Not only is Pear Deck engaging, it is also a great way to administer formal and informal checks with your class. In this session we will practice using Pear Deck and discover a few tips and tricks that make Pear Deck a #1 tool for increased student engagement and quick classroom data checks.

Who doesn't love google slides?!?.
In this session you will be creating multiple google slide templates for year round use. We will focus on templates for planning, daily/agenda slides, seating charts, student activities & parent communication. You will also have the opportunity to create slides with locked backgrounds, fun design elements and interactive pieces.

Bring your devices! There will be ample time to create/customize. You will be leaving with finished products to start using in the classroom right away!

I am a busy mom of three and enjoying making my teaching job “easier” by using technology when I can! I have been teaching for 8 years, starting in elementary school SPED and then moving to my current position as a 6th grade math & science teacher at LTMS.
