Edmodo!!!!

Edmodo is by far one of the places I visit on the internet most often.  To begin- a quick YouTube video to explain the basics.


Not David Letterman, but Anna Mitchell's Top Ten Reasons to LOVE Edmodo:

1. All resources for class in one place-no more paper shuffle
2. Students who are sick can still access the day's activities
3. Saves copies because students can easily view what they need on their computer screen and print only what they feel they need.
4. When students have questions at home-Edmodo allows them to ask their classmates or teachers the questions and they don't get stuck.  This makes it much easier to get their homework done!
5. Quizzes and assignments can be created, graded and the results posted for the teacher's convenience!
6. Documentation so no parent can say their student didn't know of an assignment, paper or due date!
7. Connecting with other teachers is as easy as setting up your own classes.
8. Teachers can share resources quickly and painlessly.
9. There are PLNs within Edmodo to find many resources from teachers around the country who like to share and network.
10. A text at 11 o'clock at night lets me know my kids are working!!!!

All it takes to get started is an email and a password.  Edmodo-give it a try!
