This class uses blooket. This is a fun, gamified learning platform that enables students to review class material by answering questions in a quiz-style format. Students do not need an account or additional device to play the game. I will send a direct link to the game where the student clicks and joins the game directly.

Content is age-appropriate and will be screen-shared. Learners will not go onto any external websites.
