: Imagine taking your task cards with you on a tablet or computer. Your student(s) work independently, getting
in my homeschool. They may be just what you need as well.
Sometimes your students are more inclined to do a technological activity. Sometimes you want them to work hands-on with clip cards, or puzzles, or other task cards. The great thing news is that I can now bundle together the physical task cards that I create with the digital games. I've had so much fun making both types of products for my kids, and I'm excited to keep creating.
Here's how the TPT-Boom connection works: Once you purchase on TPT, you can redeem your purchase at Boom Learning. You will create an account for Boom Learning. The account you get with your purchase allows you to play the Boom Cards on interactive whiteboards and with individual students using Fast Play. Fast Play does not save student progress reports. Boom Learning will give customers who are new to Boom Cards, for one year, and at no charge, the ability to collect and maintain student progress reports for up to 80 students. To collect and maintain student progress reports, you must assign students individual usernames and passwords. At the end of the one-year period, you will need to purchase a paid account to continuing saving student progress reporting.
As I mentioned, I've enjoyed creating. Keep reading to see some more information on what I can offer to your classroom or homeschool.
Below is my current catalog of digital task cards! As you can see, I'm in the process of adding many of them to TeachersPayTeachers. (Not all are available there yet.)
Let me know which decks are your favorites and I can make sure to either add them to TPT soon.
Cinematic documentaries, movies set in a specific time period, chemists performing experiments on-screen: these are just a few of the ways that you can utilize movies in homeschooling to enhance learning. If you already use unit studies to teach your children then you probably know that a great way to meet the needs of your visual

Last week my daughter and I read some great books about community helpers and did some activities to recognize the community workers all around us. Now we are noticing all the people that help us on a regular basis. The librarian, the eye doctor, the worker at the dry cleaners, and the construction workers along the side

“It’s morning, Mommy!” As usual, I start the day with my 4-year-old daughter’s cheerful greeting. After a hug and a kiss, she runs off to get ready for the day and “make her bed,” and I hop in the shower. Since my homeschool day with almost 9-year-old, 4-year-old, and almost 1-year-old kids (Raisin, Strawberry, and

I am so excited that my 8-year-old son Raisin is finally becoming mature enough to be a lot more self-directed this year! It’s just in time. This year my daughter is going to be home preschooled, and I also have a soon-to-be-walking baby! It’s going to be crazy enough, so I’m really grateful anytime my son can

My son’s science class in our co-op finished learning about the ocean just before break. Although there is not often take-home work, the teacher did in this case give the class an assignment: learn about a sea animal and report back to the class in some sort of presentation (a poster, a pamphlet, etc.). Since

Today’s Teaching with Technology post focuses on how we use Google Earth. I say I use it for “our homeschool,” but really, I just let my son play with it and explore the world. Maybe next year I’ll give him more specific assignments. There are so many tools as a part of the Google Earth
