With Mentimeter you have lots of options. One great option is to create interactive quizzes that will make your classroom fun. What better way to get students excited about learning than to introduce a fun interactive game or quiz to the classroom? Create some friendly rivalry between students and create a sense of community by using an interactive quiz. Switch up standard teaching techniques and wake up students with some interactive games.

Mentimeter allows you to build interactive presentations with the easy-to-use online editor. Add questions, polls, quizzes, slides, images, gifs and more to your presentation to create fun and engaging presentations.

Your audience uses their smartphones to connect to the presentation where they can answer questions. Visualize their responses in real-time to create a fun and interactive experience.

Once your Mentimeter presentation is over, share and export your results for further analysis and even compare data over time to measure the progress of your audience.'

There are many partners who play significant roles in educating children. Parents are the first teacher of their child, and theirs is a crucial role in the education of their children.
Conferences are the formal framework that parents and teachers can use to learn together how to provide the best possible support system for the child’s learning.
While many schools still use the standard fifteen minute conference format in which a teacher will see parents individually over the course of an afternoon or evening, in recent years, the traditional meeting has been challenged by two alternative conference formats: the three way conference and the student led conference.

Passport for Life supports the awareness, assessment, development and advancement of physical
literacy among students and teachers. The four components of physical literacy that are assessed in
Passport for Life are Active Participation, Living Skills, Fitness Skills and Movement Skills. Passport for Life combines student responses to online questionnaires with student data resulting from
their participation in fitness and movement skill tasks that teachers administer and observe.
Based on the results of the physical literacy assessments, the Passport for Life website generates a
Student Passport and a Class Passport. These passports highlight gaps in students’ physical literacy
levels and support teachers in adapting their programming and instruction to provide targeted lessons
that are relevant at both the class and student- levels. The passport results are user-friendly for
teachers, parents and students and offer these target groups a platform to engage in meaningful
conversation about student physical literacy assessment outcomes to support future improvements.

I use this assignment whenever I teach Personal Finance. There is no better way to teach budgeting skills and the power of money than to have the students track and record their spending for five months. This is probably the most powerful activity that I have used in teaching this course.
