Nearpod Place Value

Nearpod Place Value

One of our favorite apps to use in math is Nearpod. The teacher makes problems on her ipad and then shoots the problems to our ipads. We have to answer the questions and when we hit send our answers go to her ipad and she can see out work. Then, she can share our work and show each of us how others in our group solved the problems different ways. It is fun to do this in our math rotations. 2LC foodies.
