Professional Development

I had the opportunity to work with a few teachers and create blabberize projects with their class. If you or your grade level would like a tutorial on how to use blabberize just email me and invite to your grade level meeting or we can set up a time to meet individually. I've included some tutorial videos if you just can't wait and would like to use it. Not only can I train you to use blabberize, but there are also specific steps on how to embed it onto your website that I would be happy to explain.

Google Classrooms is a game changer! You could utilize this for just about anything.

Teacher ID- Log In by going to google.com and add account/login at the top right of the screen. You will actually type your usually email address there. For example, I sign in by typing casey.crumbley@henry.k12.ga.us and then my usual password. If you usual password doesn't work you need to make a new password that is atleast 8 characters with a capital/lowercase/number or you can contact helpdesk at helpdesk@henry.k12.ga.us and have them help you.

Once signed in to google using your Henry account. Go to classroom.google.com and select I am a TEACHER at the bottom right to get started. From there you will create a class (two if you teach both 4th and 5th) you can get your class code for students by clicking the "students" tab. The class code will be on the left.

Student username is their student number @henry.k12.ga.us

For example:

12345@henry.k12.ga.us

Their password is their initials, six digit birth date, and #

For example:

cc112809#

I would sign in to each of your student accounts on google if I were you, and then go to classroom.google.com and join a class (it's at the top and looks like a plus sign +) This is where you will type your class code.

Student will then be in your google classroom. I've barely even scratched the surface of what you can do with google classroom, but I know multiple students can work on one document/assignment at the same time. Their work is automatically saved, therefore no need for flash drives. Google has google docs, students would use this in place of Microsoft Word, there is also Google Slides that students can use instead of powerpoint. There is so much more!

I made a separate Popplet Guide. Click below for the link.
