Digital Task Cards: What is Boom Learning℠?

Written by Rebecca Reid

Teachers and homeschool parents: Imagine taking your task cards with you on a tablet or computer. Your student(s) work independently, getting instant feedback on their work, whether correct or incorrect. They even take their spelling test right there in the app! When you get a chance, you check their progress on their digital task cards. At a glance you can see what they need help on and where you need to focus. Which digital task cards do they need to revisit? Sounds great, doesn't it? My son and my daughter love learning digitally. Boom Cards are digital task cards that play on any modern browsers (released within the last three years) on interactive whiteboards, desktops, laptops, netbooks, Chromebooks, iPads, iPhones, Android tablets and phones, and Kindle-Fire tablets. Boom Cards apps are on The App Store, Google Play, and the Amazon Kindle Fire store. And now, you can buy digital task cards right from TeachersPayTeacher's stores! See more information about how Boom Cards encourage independent learning in my homeschool. They may be just what you need as well.

Buy Games and Digital Task Cards Together

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.  
Get my top selling compound words puzzle cards and clip cards now BUNDLED with the digital task cards as well!
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.
