I brought in a new technology piece to 5th grade. Problem is, I can't get the name straight. What is with my brain? The students are even starting to laugh at me, I continually call it FlipChart. Ugh! FlipGrid is awesome. It was easy to learn because it is very user friendly and very intuitive. Setting up classroom connections was very easy to do and the kids hit the ground running. They REALLY liked adding emojis and flare to their videos, I even had some students film in front of the green screen for very cool special effects. My favorite learning leap was figuring out how to make a "mix-tape" something I was very skilled at in the 80's and was able to blend videos into one to make a cohesive video. All said, Flipgrid is fun and engaging for students and even their name forgetting teacher!
