Session description

The past few years have been difficult for students and teachers. Participants will explore creating differentiated (SEL) check-ins using Google tools such as Slides, Forms and Jamboard. Visual and text-based options will be explored and incorporating Bitmojis and emojis for younger students or students with special needs.

Purpose & objective

The purpose of this session is to give educators tools to help them interact more effectively with students both in and out of the special needs classroom. Participants will explore Google tools to create differentiated SEL check-ins with students virtually or in the classroom.
Google Forms will be used for text based questions. Google Slides will be used for image based SEL check-in questions including using Bitmoji and Emoji images. Google Jamboard will be used for younger students or teachers with limited computer skills.
SEL check-ins will also be discussed as an effective tool for administrators to use with teaching staff as well.
