Popplet has quickly become my favorite app because we've been using it in all different ways. Recently, the students in my small reading groups have been making popplets to practice sequencing. They've been reading stories such as "Making Pizza" and using popplet to recall the order of what they learned in the books. I've also been using popplet with my team literacy group. We've been working on asking questions. This app allows the students to organize their questions and color code them into questions they have before they start reading, while they are reading, and after they are done reading. Everyone in the class made popplets to show what they learned about wants and needs after our unit. They categorized things that people need and things people want and created their own webs to organize their ideas. I am so proud of the students and how much information they are organizing!
