Kahoot!: ​Kahoot! is a resource in which teachers or students can create interactive

learning games. A typical game of Kahoot! is displayed on a SmartBoard or other
classroom projector. Students are then able to use a “game pin” to join the round using
a computer or smartphone. Then, students can create a nickname and interact with the
game by reading the question and answering the questions, using their phone or other
device as the responder. Kahoot! is a great way to incorporate technology into a review
activity.

No Red Ink: ​No Red Ink is an educational resource in which students can practice
their language and grammar skills. Teachers are able to assign quizzes or study
sessions directly in No Red Ink, which students can access from their Launchpad. No
Red Ink also allows students to select movies, bands, or TV shows that they are
interested in. With that information, No Red Ink uses characters, actors, or musicians
from those movies, shows, etc. in the practice sentences. Additionally, No Red Ink
allows students to test out of certain study sessions or topics. For example, if a student
is assigned 3 lessons on active and passive voice, the student can either complete the
practice or take a test to see if they can test out of the lesson.
