QR Code Linky Party!

Click Measuring to the Nearest Inch QR Codes or 
Addition/Subtraction Task Cards with QR codes 
to see how I used QR codes in my class! 

Calling all QR Code Lovers!!  Carrie and I are on such a huge QR code frenzy and we would be delighted if you joined us on this fun journey!!  We are also sooo excited to be hosting our very first linky party!

Just a few simple rules:

1. Follow our blog.

2. Follow our TpT stores/Follow us on Pinterest.

3. Grab the "I heart QR Codes" image and write a post on your blog about how you have integrated QR codes in your classroom. ** (If you have used QR codes in your classroom, make sure to link up one of your most favorite products you've used!)  

Here's my post: 

It's only been a few weeks now since we have even heard of the term "QR CODES" but ever since then, we can't stop learning more about them!!  Carrie and I tried our first QR code activities this week. Since we are newbees we started with a simple QR code activity. Our main purpose right now was just to get familiar with how to use QR codes in the classroom.  So we have been using it as a self-checking system.  

One activity went with our measurement unit-measuring objects to the nearest inch.  Students did a "measurement hunt" in their desk and measured the objects. Students then took their ipads and used the QR scanner to self-check their answers!  Today, we also had students start working on addition and subtraction task cards (with QR codes, of course!!). Students solved the problems and then self-checked their answers on the Qrafter QR code reader app.  Carrie and I were both so amazed at how quickly the students adapted to this new way of integrating technology and how focused they were on their work.  We are very excited to learn more ways to make QR codes apart of our classroom!  We can't wait to hear what everyone else has been up to!
