CREATE Stations: January Digital Stations - Inclement Weather Plans

Watching the forecast, it looks like we may be getting some snow! We love a good snow day! In the event of snow days or when I am absent, I have set it up for students to access our CREATE stations in a digital format. I have 3 separate google slides that can be accessed.

This is my January bitmoji classroom with interactive pictures, games, and coding actvities set up in a winter scene for students to search, explore and access: 

The students can click on almost anything in the classroom to get to a game or a book. This is fun for the upper grades who like to explore. 

Feel free to view the bitmoji classroom HERE.

My next google slide is where I have taken my CREATE stations and put them in a digital format for my kindergarten and first grade students. This gives them some structure and takes the guessing out of a bitmoji classroom. My favorite part of this choice board is that my first graders get to practice with beebot, which helps when they code the actual robot in person. I have also included a couple of choice boards and activities that I found from other sites and librarians (credit is given on their google slide). 

The hardest part is trying to figure out where to put these links for the younger students to access easily. I have the K-1 CREATE choice board embedded in my Gordon Libguides, but my Instructional Designer also put my link in the students' Clever backpack. This was a perfect solution because they are already used to accessing their backpack for Dreambox and Lexia. This has been really convenient. 

Take a minute to look at the CREATE digital stations and VIEW HERE.

Finally this is the choice board I use for learners in grades 2-5.This has more coding, building, and even an art hub station that the students really like. 

For the second grade through fifth grade CREATE digital stations, you can  VIEW HERE. Scroll down and you will see the choice board!

THINK SNOW!! In the event we are asked to provide a choice board or an enhancement activity, I thought this would be a good start for January. Hope that this helps and someone is able to use these actvities! Be safe and stay healthy my friends!
