My Take

I would highly recommend Quiver to everyone. It is truly an amazing tool that provides students with opportunities to learn and explore the world around them in a more engaging way. These educational coloring sheets are great for center activities, lesson extensions, and for individual hands-on learning activities.

How I Use It

Quiver is an amazing app that allows students to color a special sheet that can then be scanned and come alive in front of their very eyes. This app has provided my students with a more engaging way to learn and explore the world around them. For example, I taught a science lesson about volcanoes. As a follow-up activity, I then provided my students with a volcano coloring sheet that I printed from the Quiver website. Once my students colored their volcanoes, I then scanned their sheets with the app on my phone and their volcanoes came to life. They were able to view a volcano as it erupted, the flow of lava, and the ash that came out of the top of their volcanoes. It was amazing to see the impact this amazing tool had on my students.

Extend a Lesson with 3D Coloring and Creation

Students love this app and are always wondering if other worksheets will come to life if we use the Quiver app with it. They are disappointed when they learn that only coloring pages made by Quiver works with the app. Remind students that they shouldn’t color dark on these pages, otherwise the app can not detect the image and it doesn’t work, we have had better luck with crayons than markers. They are continuing to come out with more coloring pages, including more with an educational focus. I’m excited for Quiver to produce more pages that tie to what we are learning in the classroom.

It's so exciting to see coloring pages come to life when you view them in 3D!

My kids absolutely loved this and were so excited to do another page. I can see how this app could really enhance our science curriculum by viewing pictures from a variety of angles. I liked that they could view the picture from different angles. I also like how easy it was to print off pages and use the app. I really wouldn’t change anything about how this app works.

Make student writing projects come alive!

Using augmented reality to spark student interest and excitement has made ColAR ( now called Quiver) a valuable tool for teaching, primarily as a way to encourage writing and close reading for detail. My criticism is that there are a limited number of free pictures, and if you pay for a picture to use, it can only be viewed on the specific device it was downloaded from, not any device with the app.
