The new Class Dojo

I have to admit- I wasn’t a big Class Dojo fan.  As a former 5th grade teacher, I

thought they were a little old for a visit to the dojo.  But Megan Velardi (Arleth)
reached out to me about their new portfolios and I was impressed. What a simple
way to have students create digital portfolios!

Here is what Megan had to say:

“Class Dojo has added Portfolios to their program! This addition gives students a

voice (literally) as they share their learning by adding photos and videos to their own

portfolio and parents are absolutely LOVING it! They are currently using their portfolios

during independent centers. It’s been so engaging for the students and it’s exciting to

see them on task for a longer period of time!”

The photo above shows the first day we implemented it in her first-grade classroom.
Her students were a pleasure to work with and the process was painless.

The student above is recording his reading. Megan can then approve it and share
with the parent.
