Poll Everywhere



Tired of students using their cellphones for texting? Give them a specific use and keep them occupied with some pre-planned or off-the-cuff surveys! With a free account, you can receive up to 40 responses for one question.


Some of the ways I use this in my classroom:
  • Grad song & theme selection!
  • Bell Task
  • Pre-learning activity
  • Check for understanding
  • Exit slip
  • Brainstorming session (with moderation - does cost $) - but what about staff meetings?
  • Take the brainstorming a step further - convert to a Wordle!
Let's give it a try!


Would you use this website in your classroom? (poll)
