Hello Literacy Land Friends and Followers! I'm Deniece from This Little Piggy Reads. Today I'm going to share a website with you, Padlet. There are a few reasons that I love Padlet. First, it's incredibly user friendly for both me and my students. Second, it's quick! I mean super quick to set up a "pad". Third, it is incredibly versatile and would work for a variety of grade levels and most subject areas. Finally, it works on any device - phone, Mac, Google, tablet, etc...
Now, I'm going to discuss all the uses of Padlet in a classroom. There aren't many websites/apps that are applicable for PK - High School, but Padlet is! In an Early Elementary Classroom, you might use it in place of a Bubble Map. In an Upper Elementary Classroom it could be used as an exit ticket. In a Middle School or High School Classroom, a teacher could easily use it for a novel study, literature circles or a socratic seminar.
If you are looking for ways to integrate technology into your classroom instruction, give Padlet a try!
