Have you heard of Boom Learning digital task cards? Wondering what the hype is all about?
I recently stumbled across this relatively new platform and I LOVE IT! I tested Boom Learning out with my students at the end of last school year. Boom Learning provided great paperless practice for my kids and they really enjoyed it! Whenever they had extra time, they would beg to work on Boom Learning decks! I was shocked! It's really hard to say no when they WANT to practice skills!
Here are a few reasons why I'm loving Boom Learning digital task cards:
1. It's digital! - For you this means no printing, cutting, laminating, storing and NO CLUTTER! Boom Learning gamifies the task cards to keep the students interested. My kids had a ball buying new avatars with the points they earned by answering questions.
2. It's flexible! - Boom Learning cards can be used on ANY internet connected device - NO capability issues! Also, you can assign decks to individual students or the whole class. Students can use Boom Learning cards at home or at school. Boom Learning is perfect for a whole class setting, math stations, and individuals.
3. Data! - Unlike traditional task cards, Boom Learning task cards are self-grading and students receive immediate feedback after each question. You gotta love that! Boom Learning also has reports so you can see where your students are having trouble.
4. It's affordable! - You can easily afford to buy your own license if your district won't purchase one for you. You can begin with a FREE starter account to try out the Boom Learning app. Currently, the basic account is only $9 a year and is perfect for teachers of self-contained classrooms. $9 is a steal and I'm sure this promo WON'T LAST LONG!! You will need to purchase decks of digital task cards. You can get them either through Boom Learning or Teachers Pay Teachers. There are many free decks to choose from and the others are reasonably priced. The best part is you can preview 4 task cards from any deck that you are interested in buying.
