Each Google Slide deck is designed for independent, interactive practice with clear instructions.

For assessment, we offer two options:

  • Multiple-choice questions at the end of the slide deck
  • A self-grading Google Form with the same set of questions

Google Form assessments are auto-graded and can be saved to a Google Sheet for easy future reference, thus providing an efficient, no-prep solution to tracking student progress.

Our school had to close down for a week because of a flood. This came in handy during our closure. It was so helpful and the kids enjoyed it. It was great review for a unit we had just competed.
