Small Group QR Lesson and Self Check

Small groups are hard to get started in your classroom. How do you give the kids directions? How can you ensure they are learning in the right direction when you are busily working with your RTI small group? Have you ever considered using a QR code as a self check for kids? What if your small group station did a worksheet, then used a QR code that sent them to an answer check? Or maybe even the top of the worksheet has a video tutorial of the skill they are working on?

Steps to get started:
1. Create your worksheet - based on student needs and standards (Duh right?!)
2. Either create a quick lesson explanation (maybe using Educreations) or locate one online

    Virtualnerd.com
3. Use a QR generator like bitly.com to create your QR. Bitly will also save all of your links in case you'd like to create bundles to use and share.
4. Create a quick google doc with your answers to your worksheet. *If you use a google doc you can continue to use the same QR for your answers page if you just change the doc every day. Make sure that you open up the rights to the doc to share with anyone who has the link.
5. Use a QR generator to create a QR to your answer page.
6. Print out your worksheet and QRs, cut them out and glue them to your worksheet (or, if you created the worksheet just cut/paste the QRs on your worksheet before printing).
7. Teach your kids the protocol and procedures for the small group station and how to use the QRs.
8. Go work with your small group and let the kids learn with a powerful lesson and self check!

**Worried about your kids going straight to the answers... or do they need a little brain break? Post the Answer QR across the room so they have to get up out of their seat to check their answers. **
