NGPF Middle School Course on Pear Deck!

 

Thinking of using the NGPF Middle School Course this school year? Back in April 2023, four of the units in the course were available in Pear Deck. With the start of the school year, we’re excited to announce that ALL Middle School Course lessons are now available on Pear Deck

Pear Deck transforms presentations into formative assessments and active learning experiences to engage all learners. Teachers are able to interact with students using proven instructional strategies, synchronously or at their own pace.

Note: teachers can access and use all the NGPF Middle School Lessons that have been created in Pear Deck (and maintain access to the Lessons after the 90 Day free trial period) by creating a free Pear Deck account. Premium Individual and Custom-level Pear Deck licenses unlock additional dashboards and features on the platform, but are not required in order to use these NGPF Lessons.
