    Hi Matt,
    I tested this out today as our school is now "virtual" for a number of weeks. The problem I had, was that there does not seem to be an effective way to "end" the meeting. Even if I as the teacher leave, the kids can still stay on there. I googled this and it seems there is no good answer. Any ideas?

    Thanks,
    Sue Surine

 The Frayer model is one of my favorite tools for building student vocabulary. Whether you are face-to-face or in an online environment, building student vocabulary is an important aspect of learning. The Frayer model provides students with four quadrants to fill in with definitions, characteristics, and examples of a term.  Why I Love the Frayer Model I like this tool because it provides students with multiple ways to represent a term. There are many different variations of the Frayer model; however, I created the following variation to provide students with an opportunity to write, draw, and supply background knowledge. Plus, students can draw their own Frayer model on paper or use an electronic version.
