Desmos Calculator

 🖩

In Virginia, our students are preparing to take their SOL(Standards of Learning Test).  If you are like me, this last semester brought a lot of change and a lot of new.  I teach middle school and Covid brought many changes to my classroom.  We spent almost the entire semester virtual and switched to a 4x4 schedule.  My students are set to take their SOL in a little over a week, and while all the curriculum has been taught, I still need to show them  how to utilize more than the basics of the calculator.  From talking to my peers, I learned I'm not alone in this area so I started putting videos on my youtube channel explaining how to use the calculator.  I am working to add more as they are requested but these are the ones I currently have.

Gimkit Tag Domination

  Gimkit came out with a new mode called Tag: Domination.  This is currently one of my students favorite modes(fishtopia is the other).  This game is similar to physical tag.  Students are split into 2 teams.  To earn energy to run and get upgrades, students must correctly answer questions.  The time to tag and run away alternate and students can see which one they are in on the top left of the screen.  At the end, the team with the most tag win.
