Edmodo

Edmodo is a free website that is also available as an app that connects teachers with their students but also allows parents to view what is going on in the classroom. As a teacher you can create groups for your students to work in, post assignments, and also plan tests and quizzes. Students have easy access to Edmodo since it is all connected with Google Apps. Parents can also view exactly what is going on in the classroom with the Edmodo Parent App. This app allows parents to see when assignments are due and can also see when test and quizzes are taking place. Edmodo helps parents get involved with their child's learning instead of just relying on what their child says about what is going on in school. Lastly, Edmodo allows you to reach out to other teachers and other students to get helpful ideas for you in the classroom. It creates a safe space for you and your students. https://www.edmodo.com/
