QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS:

Q: Do I need to have a Boom Account to create?

A: Yes, you will have to create a Boom Account and pay for the Ultimate Membership which is $35.00 per year.

Q: Do you think it is worth it? Do your Boom Decks sell?

A: Ya’ll… It’s SO worth it! Now, keep in mind – my Boom Decks sell MUCH better on TPT, so you will definitely want to sell on both platforms. In the past year, I’ve seen a huge increase in Boom purchases. Another thing I’ve found is that the buyers of Boom Decks are always coming back for more and buying bundles like crazy! (Which tells me they are loving what they are getting).

Q: How long does this course take to go through?

A: I tried to keep the videos short so that you can watch and work as you go. I’ve created a lot of “Play decks” for you to use as we go through the videos so that you can work alongside me.

But also keep in mind that you can come back as long as you need. You will have access for the life of the course. This means you can work through the course whenever you have the time!

Q: Will the course be updated?

A: Yes, I am always creating Boom Decks, so if I find that they have added/changed up things, I will go back into the course and update.

Q: What’s Included?

A: 15 videos, 1 PDF and 8 practice decks

So are you ready to start creating digital resources that are truly interactive, engaging, and FUN? If so… I can’t wait to go on this journey with you!

Do You still need convincing?

My Boom Decks are SELLING like HOT CAKES!! We are in a digital world, and more and more schools are moving to 1:1 devices. Our students need and deserve the chance to work independently as well as cooperatively with others. I believe in having many different options for our kiddos, and Boom is one of those options.

Boom Learning also allows for Free Play where teachers do not have to purchase anything, they can just give students a pin, and students can practice sets.
