Flipgrid in the Classroom

Using Flipgrid

I previously posted an introduction to Flipgrid, but wanted to follow up on how we've been using in classes this week and also a video tutorial. 

For an overview of how to get started with Flipgrid here's a video I created on the basics of using it.

This past week, I worked with a great second teacher to introduce students to Flipgrid. We began with a basic introductory video and it was a huge hit. Students were great. Respectful to others who were recording around them, giving great details about the question they were asked. It was so fun to see. Here's students watching the sample video we made and recording their own.

Ideas for using it in the classroom

Write a  math problem and have students explain/show how they would solve it.
Write an incorrectly solved math problem & have students explain what's wrong with your math & how to fix it. Make a video recommending a book they read. Have students give a summary of something you read in class. Have students compare and contrast two objects or characters (related to science, social studies, or reading characters).
