Teachers/Educators: distance learning resources possible@@

[Jalapeñomel]

I thought it may be nice to help each other out:


Here’s is a compiled list of companies offering free subscriptions:


docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1NUKLZN7hGSu1Hzm70kfzBKs-lsSELaEMggS60Bi2O2I/htmlview

[Jalapeñomel]

Edpuzzle will give you more storage, but you have to email them.

[jssymom14]

Actively Learn has some great articles (social science and science) with questions integrated and it’s super easy to link to googleclassroom

I posted these in another thread:

All of these are completely free/or have some free resources:
Scholastic
Scholastic Study Jams
Teacher Pay Teacher
XtraMath
CommonCoreSheets
Math-Aids

That’s good. I couldn’t see the google doc so wasn’t sure. I was going to say to google for a username and password.

This is my running list of everything I use-- or can use, both in person and online (mostly online, which is why I'm posting it). It includes hyperdocs and libraries to all sorts of resources. I haven't updated this version in awhile-- this is the shareable one that is editable by anyone who opens it, so feel free to add your own!

ETA: forgot the link!

Can we also post if we need something?

I can imagine we can share more specific resources, a la, "8th grade civics, online interactive / hyperdoc / something to introduce the judicial branch..."?

Absolutely! Let’s help each other as much as we can.

I’m using CommonLit for my 10 day plan; it is a great resource. I think it’s opening up services for free. Most Ed services, including Google, are trying to open up free tech for use during shutdowns.

Yes this is on the google sheet above, it is opening up.

[lo]

Mystery Science is also putting out some free and easy to do at home projects. My second graders love it.


I’m currently on maternity leave and it’s a very strange and helpless feeling... I know many of my students do not have computers at home or even basic school supplies. I don’t know how my district will address that, but I believe they intend on trying remote learning. We are not closed yet (in NY), but I think we will be soon. Also, all students in my district are eligible for free breakfast and lunch and many get food backpacks over the weekend :/. To top it off, my sub got a concussion in the classroom and was out for like 6 weeks and was only just cleared to return, but is still not 100%.

I love me some CommonLit, but I’ve never paid for it. What do you get, with the paid version?

I don’t think I saw nearpod mentioned yet. My students love it! It’s not free but they do have some free lessons. I know on a Facebook group a ton of Ed companies are offering free subscriptions to their sites as well!

It has almost a lesson on everything. There’s a library of different lessons posted. You also can make your own. It’s super interactive (they can type a paragraph, draw, find pics online and post it back on their account, take VR field trips.) My students are 2nd graders but it’s k-12 platform.
Check it out it’s awesome! If you have any other questions, let me know because I was trained to become a nearpod ambassador for my school so I can help you if needed.

I am going to tote the actively learn website again. It claims this is for 7-9 levels and you can assign them a section. If you have google classroom set up, you can link this site to their accounts directly. Also has some videos that have questions that stop the video for them to answer on making the constitution.

I don’t. I just cut and pasted this one. I do have a different google doc with online resources I can send you. PM me your email.

Repost from ML -

I teach at a university that has moved classes to online only. The next 2 weeks were supposed to be group presentations. So I'm trying to figure out if it's at all feasible to have students record themselves and then send the recording to me.

I'll preface by saying I know there might be accessibility issues. I'm working on that. However, I know that the vast majority of my students do have a smart phone. So what I'd like to do, if possible, is set up folders in my Microsoft OneDrive account - one folder per group - and students can record themselves with their smart phone, put their individual videos into the group folder, along with their Powerpoint presentation. And then I'll watch the individual videos in order by following along with their Powerpoint, to try to get a sense of what the group presentation would have been.

The issue I'm running into is that I don't know of a non-clunky way for students to get their videos into my OneDrive.

I have an iPhone, and I figured out that I can make the video and then log into my iCloud account on my computer, create a link to the video and then put the link in my OneDrive. I, personally, don't believe that's too difficult, but would like to see if anyone has an idea that is simpler. Also, I don't know how non-iPhones work, if there's an equivalent to iCloud and an equivalent process that students could follow.

If anyone has any ideas, I'd love to hear them! Thanks!
