Class Kick App: Appy Hour Monday Link Up


I am linking up again with Tech with Jen for Be Appy Monday!


The app I wanted to blog about today is one I really wanted to test out with some kiddos/teachers last week but the snow got in our way. I'm looking forward to trying it out!



Class Kick is a really awesome and FREE app for providing instant feedback on student assignments that you can see in one location in real time! This app makes it SO easy to create assignments (blank work pages, links to videos, embed images, leave voice recordings, web content, etc.) once you create a FREE teacher account.





One of the coolest features that I can't wait to test out is that students can anonymously help each other if someone gets stuck solving a problem.

All students do to "login" is tap on the Class Kick app and enter the class code that will be provided once the teacher sets up his/her account.

When I first saw this app I could only think to use it for working out math problems. However, this image below that can be found on the Class Kick Website gave me the idea to design a lesson that would target geography (then a plethora of ideas started flowing!):

Here is what you would see on the teacher end:


I have created a lesson on Ancient Rome for some 3rd graders to test out. I have to say, it was EXTREMELY easy...woo hoo! Do you use Classkick in your classroom? If so, what do you think? I'm interested!
