Morning meeting for grades 9–12
Use this screen at the very start of the school day to set the tone and keep everyone on track. Students see today’s date, the current time, a checklist of arrival tasks, and a question to answer from their own device.
The word cloud collects student answers in real time, building engagement right away. The timer keeps the routine moving, so you can start class smoothly and on schedule.
Free for teachers. Your screens, classes and uploads are saved to your account.
