Welcome back teachers to another new school year. The beginning of a school year is always filled with excitement, new goals, new students and always new challenges. By now everyone has decorated their rooms, prepared their lessons and are ready to greet those new faces. One of the first items teachers will address will be to determine where their students have left off academically from the previous year. Three months is an eternity to an elementary student and the summer months may have left a gap you need to fill.
Enter Quizlet Live, a new collaborative learning game. It helps reinforce foundational knowledge by allowing you to use your study sets to create an interactive, fun learning experience. It also helps students to learn important life skills like teamwork and collaboration.
In order to play, every student will need a mobile device or computer. You will then select Live, Study Mode and finally Create Game. Your teacher computer will then display a code your students will need to enter in order join your Quizlet Live Game.
Quizlet Live will randomly select groups of students which encourages collaboration between students who would not normally be working together. At this point, students would move to their groups and work as a team to answer a set of questions from your study set.
The teacher computer will display a leaderboard. If any team gets an answer incorrect, they will be reset to zero to start again. The first team that reaches 12 points wins. This is where the excitement happens!
At the end of the game, the teacher will have a snapshot of how well students know the material. Most importantly, teachers can easily determine what areas still need more attention.
If you haven't tried it yet, give it a try. Learn more here: https://quizlet.com/features/live
