NGPF’s Semester Course now includes Pear Deck slides!

Designed with diverse learners in mind, Pear Deck’s interactive features engage students with varying needs and learning styles. Plus, the ready-made decks mean you can spend more time thinking about your lesson and implementation instead of working on slides for your class.

Get a peek at some of the new Pear Deck and NGPF decks available for download.

Which NGPF Resources Are Available on Pear Deck?

NGPF’s Middle School Course and Semester Course are both fully available on Pear Deck.

Many lessons from the Trimester Course and Full-Year Course are available on Pear Deck because they overlap with the Semester Course. Lessons that are unique to the Trimester or Full-Year Courses will not have an accompanying Pear Deck.

Where Can I Find Pear Decks?

You can find a lesson’s Pear Deck in the lesson materials section.

How Can I Use Pear Decks?

All Pear Deck Lessons can be done synchronously or asynchronously! This makes them great for:

• Students who need to make up classes they missed
• Differentiating learning for your students
• Mixing up your lesson delivery

If you’re looking for slides to accompany a lesson, click the Pear Deck button.

• Pear Deck offers ready-made Google Slides - simply click the button to copy them to your Google Drive.
• Then, you can edit and use the slides.
• Use the Pear Deck Extension to incorporate Pear Deck’s interactive features.

Note: Teachers can access and use all the NGPF lessons created in Pear Deck (and maintain access to the Lessons after the 90-day free trial period) by creating a free Pear Deck account. Premium Individual and Custom-level Pear Deck licenses unlock additional dashboards and features on the platform, but are not required to use these NGPF Lessons.
