*Note: This was published the the beginning stages of quarantine.  You may want to read my more recent Digital Tools for Teaching Math at a Distance post.

As we start to see more schools being closed due to COVID-19, I thought it would be helpful to put together a list of free resources for math teachers preparing to switch to online learning during the closure.  Thankfully, there are many free resources available to help you teach remotely and many companies are offering their premium services for free for schools dealing with closures.  
Teaching Math Remotely During Coronavirus School Closure
1) Free Math Lessons, Videos, & Practice Quizzes
As always, my Pre-Algebra, Algebra 1, Algebra 2, and Geometry online math lessons are all free.   The lessons include practice quizzes with instant feedback and helpful videos with examples.  Many of the lessons have printable study guides that would be helpful for students going through the lesson on their own at home (grab a free study guide).


2) Self-Checking Google Activities
It's easy to make Google quizzes that are graded automatically. They're a great way to assess learning and give feedback while teaching remotely.  You can quickly learn how to make your own Google quizzes or try out this free activity for Google drive.

3) Digital Boom Cards
Boom Cards are digital, self-checking task cards.  Students are shown one question at a time and get instant feedback on their answers, which makes them a great option for online learning.  Boom Learning is now offering free Ultimate subscriptions for schools that need to close due to the virus.  You can reach out to help@boomlearning.com for more details.  (Never heard of Boom Cards?  Here are the Top 7 Reasons to Love Boom Cards.)   There are lots of free decks of cards available or you'll be able to create your own with the free Ultimate subscription.  You can test out this free deck of Boom Cards to see how they work!
4) Use Zoom for Online Meetings
Don't have access to Google Hangouts?  Zoom is another great option to host an online meeting with your students.  Their free plan allows you to have up to 100 people in a meeting at once.  Zoom can also record your meetings so you can easily upload the video online for students to access.

5) Kahoot & Quizizz
Have you tried making Kahoots?  Kahoot is currently offering free premium features for schools facing closures.  Students love being able to play live against each other or you can have them complete the quizzes at their own pace.  You can also search Quizizz for free gamified quizzes or create your own.

6) Additional Online Tools
Many companies are starting to offer discounted or free subscriptions for schools affected by the virus.  Stay up to date with more useful online tools by following this Wakelet by Erin Flanagan.

Individualized instruction is not only to enhance Math skills but also to prepare kids for success. An online math tutor program will assist children to achieve it.
