Nearpod's Sub Plans feature allows teachers to create substitute plans made up of Nearpod lessons, videos, and activities. Teachers can attach additional documents for subs and then easily share premade Nearpods. Check out the video to see how easy it is to use.

This December, Nearpod will be upgrading the following collections to the 21st Century Readiness program:

  • Digital Citizenship & Literacy (DCL)
  • Social & Emotional Learning (SEL)
  • College & Career Exploration (CCE)

By December 22, 2023, you will see the 21st Century Readiness program in the left-hand navigation menu. Here you will find DCL, SEL, & CCE lessons, as well as lessons on Financial Literacy!

NEW! Nearpod Brain Breaks

As a part of 21st Century Readiness, you will also have access to “Brain Breaks”! Either during a session or on its own, you can launch a Brain Break to help energize or calm students with some short videos.

What will happen to lessons from the old collections?

At this time, any DCL, SEL, or CCE lessons that have been added to “My Lessons,” a school library, or the district library will still be available, but you will use the 21st Century Readiness program to find new lessons to use.
