Khan Academy- Online videos and practice for math, science, and world history

Khan Academy- This a a great website with videos that teach students how to do certain topics.  The website doesn't have ready-made note worksheets like some sites but I created a template for it and can just change the titles of the videos and the examples from the videos.

Back of the worksheet- Each box is labeled with it's title
and separated into example and notes columns.
Front of worksheet- The VIDEOS are the
titles of the videos on Khan Academy


What is really great about Khan Academy is that it is a really simple login for students using Google.  Once they are logged in their Chromebook, they click the Sign in with Google button and they are set.


You as a teacher can set up classes that your students would add you as their coach and you can then track their progress.  You can see what videos they watch, what practice they do and what progress they have made.



I send them the links to the specific videos and practice via email so it cuts down on the time spent searching for the specific videos.  Hope this helps to start and/or continue your Chromebook/online teaching and learning.  :)
