Interesting apps that can be used from teachers.



Hello .How are you doing?
This week I thought of posting about an interesting topic at least I found it so .We as future teachers shall take into account every single opportunity ,every tool that helps us to improve or to upgrade let’s say our process of teaching our way of teaching because there is always place for improvement .
I have mentioned it many times that multimedia or technology serve the purposes of teaching ,the main aim of us as teachers which for the most is to teach properly.Why  not the traditional way intertwined with the newest ones ,and of course technology is a main aspect of this intertwined method having this in consideration we as teachers personalize ,make it our own way so as to love what we do .
While looking up some articles about apps and technology I found out  a very attractive and engaging article about the variety of apps that we as future teachers may find helpful to use while.
I thought of sharing five of these apps I took note of with you.Take a look if you want.
The first one is ‘’Kahoot.’’
1)Teachers love to turn a boring lesson into a game to motivate their students, but not everyone has the skills to make a game from scratch. Thankfully, the GetKahoot website makes it easy to turn your class into a gameshow. All you have to do is enter your prepared questions and answers into the site to create an instantly playable game with a web browser. Your students can then download the Kahoot app to use as a buzzer to join in on the fun.
Then after Kahoot we go on with the 2nd one which is ‘’Seesaw’’
2) Parents want to celebrate their kids’ achievements every step of the way, so it’s important to keep them in the loop on their kids’ progress throughout the school year. With Seesaw, a student portfolio app, students can store and post their best work to share with their parents. Teachers, on the other hand, can provide concrete examples of their students’ strengths and weaknesses to their parents during teacher-parent meetings.
The 3rd one that follows is ‘’Teach  Learn Lead’’ which serves a lot to us as teachers.
3) Don’t you wish you could meet other teachers who teach the same subject or grade as you, even if they don’t work at your school? Teach Learn Lead is like Facebook for teachers, where you can meet like-minded colleagues who may be anywhere in the country, but have relevant experience to share. You can start discussions and polls to share lesson plan ideas or career advice, or just gab about your students.
Whereas the 4th one is ‘’Remind’’.
4) Remind (formerly known as Remind 101) makes it easy for teachers to communicate with students and their parents beyond the classroom. You can make class announcements, group chats, or contact individuals privately through the app. Your messages can even be translated into over 70 languages, making it possible to communicate with parents who are non-native English speakers.
And the last but not the least is ‘’Addittio’’.
5) There is a better way of keeping attendance, grades, and class notes than in easily misplaced notebooks or on random pieces of paper. As a digital gradebook and classroom management app, Additio lets you take attendance, calculate grades, and plan your timetable, all on your mobile device. For additional features, like performance analytics and note-keeping, you need to opt for the $8-per-month Plus edition.

Feel  free to share your opinion of what you think of these apps .
Thank you !
