students in their learning?
Learning Target

We will be skilled at understanding how Flipgrid can

enhance learning in order to implement Flipgrid into
our classroom learning experiences.
 Stage 1
Make meaning of Flipgrid
What is Flipgrid?
● Student voice
● Formative assessment tool
● Responses through recorded videos
● Grid view- “Home Base”
● Responsive feedback (peer/teacher)

● Links to outside resources within post
S: Create a Flipgrid video to engage in a
discussion instead of face-to-face
A: All students engage in the discussion by
