Kahoot.it is a free site where the teacher can sign up for an account, and find pre made lessons on a variety of topics. This is similar to the Nearpod app, and is a student response system. Kahoot.it shows student answers and the correct answers to science questions. My class and I thought it was an excellent prep activity before the Science CSTs that fifth graders took in May. Totally motivating and fun! We found that one of the kahoot.it science lessons matched the online released science questions that I had printed out into a packet.
We were so excited about this site, that we shared the idea to use it with our 2nd grade Tech buddies at our school. The buddies were paired and they answered questions about the life cycle of the butterfly. The 2nd graders were studying that in their science lessons, so it was thrilling for the tech pairs to work together to answer the butterfly questions.
What a fabulous discovery for use in an all iPad classroom!
