TechMas Tip#3: Winter Magnetic Poetry with Google Slides

Does the chilly weather get your students a little over-energetic?  This is the best opportunity for you to take advantage of those creative and active minds.  Today's TechMas Tip comes to you via the Shake Up Learning blog, who created this awesome Google Slides template for Winter Magnetic Poetry.

There are over 100 tiles in the template and a word list is included on slides two and three.  You or your students can add more text boxes or remove existing tiles in order to adjust for vocabulary levels.  I do have to note that when you add a text box it may not look exactly like the original tiles.  No big deal, though. Creativity has no limits, right? You can either use this as a collaborative activity or an independent activity.  You could also use it as a writing prompt.  Regardless of how you decide to implement this in your classroom, I'm sure no two poems will be alike.

Share some of your students best creations via Twitter and be sure to use hashtag #TechMasTips and tag me, @rfluegel. Give Kasey Bell from ShakeUpLearning a shout out, as well @ShakeUpLearning,

Enjoy!
