Socrative... New Assessment Website

Here is a new website that I would like for us to try.  It is an amazing tool that can help us think about what we learned, take quizzes or polls and document our learning in a fun and efficient way.

The link is called Socrative.

You do not need to have an account. However, I want you to write your whole name as you enter.  The site will not record your name for any purpose.  All data collected will be sent to me only.  So, it is a safe and approved site. 

Once you have successfully signed on, you will be taken to today's challenge.  It can be a poll a reflection question, an exit ticket or a quiz.

There can only be one task assigned every time. So when there is an assignment, you will follow the sign-on process the same way every time.  Here is the process.

2. Enter Student Login
3. Enter Crame217 (no spaces) for the Teacher's Room Name
4. Click "Join Room"
5. Enter your whole name. Don't worry the site is safe.
6. Do the task.
7. Submit.

Try today's challenge.  It is a 7th Grade Basic Skills Test for Science.  You will notice that some of it you know, while some you may not.  Let's go over it together as you explore it the first time.  There are explanations to help you through the ones you don't understand.
