Remind: Keeping Families in the Loop
Objectives:
To increase student ownership
To increase home/school communication (2 way)
Description: Remind is a free and safe app that can be downloaded from the App Store or Google Play from your smart phone, and/or can be operated from the PC/tablet/laptop at Remind.com. Creating classes is so simple. Inviting parents/guardians, and students is also easy.
I love this app because it is so easy to use. It helps me communicate with parents and guardians and keep them informed about important dates and events. We can easily start chats with each other. This is especially helpful if parents or I have a quick question. Many of my students have downloaded that app as well and they appreciate the reminders. Because my students are under the age of 13, they cannot start chats. It makes 2 way communication easy.
Advice for Implementation: This app is user friendly, so jump in and give it a try!
