Week 8: Infused Classroom: ChatterPix x Flipgrid
ChatterPix x Flipgrid
ChatterPix is an easy to use app that allows people to create fun greetings, playful messages, creative cards, and more. This app can be used with Flipgrid, so that students can share their videos and information with peers. This is a great way to keep learners engaged, and they can have fun in the process!
How can this be used in the classroom?
- Create book reports- Assign students to famous/ historical people and have them create an informational presentation
- Have students describe a specific animal and it's habitat and/or facts about the animal
Benefits of using ChatterPix:
- All students can report and/or tell a story or summarize events and information in their own personal space.- Students can collaborate with one another in fun and engaging ways.
- It is quick and easy to use.
Kayla,
ReplyDeleteHow fun! I could defiantly see my students getting into this. Especially since some of my students really do not like to film themselves. This could be a great way to keep them engaged and wanting to participate! I am curious since I am still remote... do all my students need to download the ChatterPix app in order for it to work with flip grid or just me? Thanks for sharing!

Kayla,
ReplyDeleteI love this! I could definitely see my middle school students having fun sharing with classmates. We have been virtual since March in JCPS so my students have constantly been begging for new ways to interact with peers. I love that they are able to collaborate while being virtual. I would love to use this for book talks. Thanks so much for sharing!

Hi Kayla,
ReplyDeleteThis looks like so much fun! I really like your idea of using it in the classroom to have students create and present an informational report on a famous/historical person. My higher reading group chooses a "Who Is" or "Who Was" book at the end of each year to read and then write a small report on the person. I think this would be a great new, fun and engaging way for them to complete their report!
