Thank you for all the wonderful ideas to use on Digital Learning Day. I am going to try out QR codes in Social Studies. The students will be finishing up their explorer research. This is a fun and interactive way for them to share their essays with each other! Believe or not, I have never made a QR code. For some reason it seemed like a really daunting task. After watching your video, I can see that it is actually really easy. Thank you!!! When scanning the QR codes on the Ipads, do you need a special app?

Hi Jacqueline,
I'm so glad that you are going to try QR codes. I like to use the SCAN app https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/scan-qr-code-barcode-reader/id411206394?mt=8 for reading QR codes. Our iPads already have this app on them, so you should be good to go.

I think there's an app missing on this list, OMG! Nearpod should definitely be here! It's amazing.
