Padlet (https://graniteschools.padlet.org/) is a tool that allows teachers to make collaborative pages where students can respond, collaborate, and communicate with each other. We’re excited to announce that all Granite teachers now have access to a paid district Padlet Backpack account!

Getting Started with Padlet

Granite teachers can follow these instructions to get logged in and started with Padlet. The video below shows the basics of creating and sharing a padlet with students once you have an account. Students do not have accounts in Padlet; they can view and contribute to the padlets that their teachers share with them without signing in.)

Sample Padlet Wall

This is a sample Padlet wall we created a few years ago listing some ways you could use Padlet in the classroom. Feel free to add your own ideas or just practice posting to see how Padlet could work with your students.
