I've been a fan of Padlet for awhile now and it always amazes me the ideas that can come to use it with all levels of Students. This was what we did with our 4th Grade STEM Students. They had to go on and tell whether they are Scientists, Technologists, Engineers or Mathematicians and answer why they think so. It's been fun reading their posts...clearly these kids are going places.
Here are other ideas: Guided Reading responses to text....Chat about Genius Hour activities or mapping out a plan with their teams...Discussion Wall about their hypothesis and then the results of their science experiments. Endless ideas!
We're also always looking for ways to bring up being good Digital Citizens...before going onto Padlet, we have yet another discussion about thoughtful, kind posts and not leaving too many personal details or tracks for other online viewers. Not only does this discussion minimize crazy posts, but it brings the activity into focus of what is expected when they do leave their mark!
I also like how easy it is to start a Padlet wall, share, print, and more. Nicely done Padlet...nicely done!
