Link and Learn Friday
Friday March 7
Classroom
- Reading level choices and quizzes are right next to the article, making it easy for students to complete the assignment
- Although not required, the free account allows you to setup a classroom, student logins and assign articles to a class. Each students results are then stored to your account. This allows you to go back and review their actual test, not just the results.
One thing to note about this site, while all of the articles provide levelling choices for the reader, not every article has a quiz. Look for the anchor in the top right corner above the titles before assigning them to your class.
APPS

... you can use your headphones as a remote to snap a picture?
....there is an embedded feature called "guided access" for little ones?
...you can add folders and apps to your home row?
