Our 5th graders in Mr. Robert's math class are learning how to use Plickers. Plickers are an quick interactive tool that will help our teachers get student feedback using QR cards. The students determine their response and then hold the card according to that answer. The teacher uses their cell phone to scan all of the cards and the responses are recorded. The students thought the activity was "awesome" and they asked to do it more often.
