"If you are a Mac school, you would use Text Edit. Those sites look good Vicky. I think I will go through the tutorials myself. I learned HTML in 1999 so it would be great to update my knowledge.
I have done some very basic HTML with fifth graders by…"

ScootPad?
8 Replies
Is anyone here using ScootPad? It seems a bit like study island. It is completely based on the common core. I was thinking it could be good to use with my students in the younger grades. Any…Continue

I work at a school that tends to be very conservative about technology use. Our classrooms don't yet have internet access for student computers and they are very limited even in my classroom. This is…Continue

Lauren Boyer replied to Ruth Tutewiler's discussion Fund Raisers"You can collect old cell phones and get paid for them. We used phoneraiser. We didn't do to well, but that was more because of our school population. A friend of mine made about 500 dollars in her first shipment.
If your school allows you…"
Lauren Boyer replied to Lynn's discussion Does anyone give their students tests?"I am not sure what I will be teaching next year but I am thinking the same thing. I am not required to do a pre or post test but I am thinking about it! I am actually a elementary and special ed teacher but I got this job and jumped on it! I really…"
Lauren Boyer replied to Natalie Markey's discussion Safe Image Search?"I have this problem as well. With my younger ones I have had them use kidrex and look for "pictures of ..." this just takes a lot more time. I really try to use clip art as much as possible but it isn't always possible. I teach K-8 so…"

Hello Everyone! I have just started my 8th graders on learning HTML. They are only with us for 1 month before graduation (we are a K-8 charter in Philly) and I miss them one of those days. So I decided to start wrapping things up with them. They worked in wix.com last year but they are really interested in coding and HTML so we are taking it a step further. They have been working on Code Avengers and some of them do it in their spare time at home (one girl is through the first level of the…See More
Lauren Boyer replied to Diane Wilde's discussion Curriculum Mapping"DeAnna,
lboyer@hostos.aspirapa.org is my e-mail. Would you be able to invite me. I have an account but it won't let me join! "
Vicky S replied to Lauren Boyer's discussion ScootPad?"I like that you can share a class with another teacher which means both the classroom teacher and I can have access to the information and we can each have our own login."
Vicky S replied to Lauren Boyer's discussion ScootPad?"From the comparison, it looks like the spelling lists are only in premium, too - those were available when I first signed up but I guess they're now premium. I'm going to have my earlier finishers in 1st Grade start using this probably…"
Teri Pope replied to Lauren Boyer's discussion ScootPad?"I get NO money to run this lab so yes, we are using the free version. "
Vicky S replied to Lauren Boyer's discussion ScootPad?"Right now, I have 30 days premium (they upgraded all users to that for this month) but I am and will be using the fre version. Premium lets you differentiate - with the free version, they can only be on the standard learning path and you don't…"
"Are you using the free version? $4.99 per month per class doesn't seem too steep. You get the premium version free for 30 days when you sign up, so I can't really tell if I'd like the free version and what aspects go away…"
Vicky S replied to Lauren Boyer's discussion ScootPad?"I have signed up and set up my 1st graders but haven't started using it yet. I want to coordinate this with the classroom teacher so I can get the weekly spelling list and see if she wants to use the Reading Log."
Teri Pope replied to Lauren Boyer's discussion ScootPad?"I am using Scootpad with my 1st graders. They seem to enjoy it. "
"I just checked out the website. I'd be curious to hear if anyone else is using it too. Looks good!"
