Google Drive apps to support and engage diverse learners

The best Google apps for Kindergartens

 

            `When it comes to finding ways to teach elementary schoolers is hard to come up with something they will catch their attention. Technology has come to save teachers life and having apps that are very helpful for different levels. Today a came out with the best three apps of google drive for the younger students, they are easy to use and creative. 

 

These are the three google apps for kindergartens students:

 

Google slides 


Google slides is one of the best apps for kids to start using, this app helps the younger students to start knowing about technology. The teacher can analyze their students’ abilities with technology in a long distance and get their feedback instantly. As an educator, I consider this application as Creative, Analyze and Understanding in the Bloom’s Taxonomy category.

Google Drawings 


Google Drawings provides for the students to learn while they are drawing, uploading pictures, videos or graphs. This app makes the young students to learn with creativity and working physically with their hands. In this app the students also collaborate and work together in real time, and all files are store in google drive. Students can elaborate with their learning skills with this app by telling a story or a poem. Comic strips are a great way for students to summarize and tell stories.

Google Jamboard


Google Jamborad is a white board that the students can use to collaborate and create. You might be wondering if is the same as google slides, let me tell you that there are not the same. Jamboard has a lot more to the students that the can use and navigate and create new things. As an educator this app is very useful to teach younger students, this app can it be used to create shorty stories to read as a group. Sometimes kids don’t find the books very interesting, but what if we use Jamboard and add some pictures together while we are reading?

In conclusion, using google dive apps is the best way to teach with technology. Google Drive can be used by both students and teachers in any classroom setting. Google Drive can use services like Google Docs, Slides, Sheets, and more to assist in any educational or professional material. Working with google drive can save you from losing you work, in all the apps that they provide all the work saves to you google account. You can also view the work anytime and as much as you prefer.
