Boom Cards™

You guys!!  Have you heard of these yet?!?  My awesome friend at Krejci Creations told me about this site!  This site collects data on students for you!  Enough said, right?

Data!  Data!  Data!  

We need it for EVERY decision we make for students!  The Boom Learning℠ site tracks student progress for you!  Hooray!  As a special ed teacher who tracks data for all things, I find this particularly helpful for tracking student goals!

There's tons of free products there and some awesome stuff to buy, too.

I'm not an expert on it, but here's the basics.  You can get "decks of cards" from Teachers Pay Teachers OR from the Boom Learning  site.  

With your Teachers Pay Teachers purchase, users new to Boom Learning get a three-month free trial of student progress reporting for up to 150 students. Your trial includes the ability to make up to 5 free DIY decks. You may upgrade or cancel at any time. Boom Cards play on modern browsers (released in the last three years) on interactive whiteboards, computers and tablets. Boom Cards apps are also available. Not sure if your browser is modern enough? Try a free Boom Cards deck first. When you redeem your purchase, Boom Learning opens an account for you if you do not already have one. If you do not subscribe at the end of your trial, you will be able to continue using Boom Cards with the Fast Play feature. Fast Play does not track individual progress. If you do not subscribe we will delete your student records 3 months after the expiration of the trial to protect student privacy.

So, you get a "deck", then students play!  It's great if you're a 1:1 classroom, to use as a station, or even to project on an interactive white board for the whole class!!

So far The Differentiation Shop has 4 decks available to practice dividing large numbers by 2 digits!  

I'd love to hear what types of Boom Card products you're hoping to see!

Until next time!
