Applied Digital Skills

Google and Donorschoose have partnered up to offer free training and a gift card. I’ve used the Applied Digital Curriculum several times in the last few years but they have added some new coding curriculum.

If you have the time, I’d suggest signing up for one of the trainings. My favorite part of the training was learning how to create a hidden picture and color by number activity. The student version of this included short videos explaining how to create their own. I am trying the activity with my students this week.

After completing the training, you get a $100 Donors Choose gift card while supplies last. Check back tomorrow for some activities with hidden pictures and color by number.

Long Division in Google Docs

I was making a long division worksheet for my students in Google Docs when I realized that it wasn't under equations. Here's how to insert it. This does not look very pretty so I have another video on how I do it in Google Sheets which takes longer but looks nicer.

Baby Yoda Pixel Art Template

This template is set for 3 sets of answers. I have the answers that are currently set, you will need to reformat them to use with your content. Baby Yoda Pixel Art Template Be on the lookout for this activity given 2 ordered pairs and asking for slope, y-intercept, and the equation of a line. I'm also formatting this for converting between percents, decimals, and fractions. If you want to reformat it before I post the above activities here is how.

Blooket Game

A week ago my students kept asking to play Blooket so I looked into it. Blooket is much like Kahoot and Gimkit but they earn money. Blooket has several different game modes and the students LOVE IT. Once a student has been eliminated they will keep playing to earn more gold which they can use to buy rare items. Each week Blooket has a theme and those rare items can be bought for the week and then they are gone; the items include accessories or special characters they can play as. My students will play for hours if we let them. When we finish a game they are ready for another round. Blooket has a FREE version which has been enough for my class but you can also upgrade to a paid version. They have games that are already made or you can create a new game. My students love the battle royale mode and the gold quest the best. If you haven't given it a try I would highly suggest it.
