Beginning in the Morning With Checkin and Continuing All the Way Through to the End of the Day
One of the hardest parts about distance learning is not being able to see and talk with our students on a regular basis. Even if you are doing video conferences, it is hard to know how students are doing and if they need help. One option is to have daily check-ins using Google Forms. This post shares free daily check in google forms for distance learning and some tips for how to use them.
Note: The PDF now includes links to Weekly Check-Ins as well!
About the Daily Check-In Google Forms
These daily check-in Google Forms are one way to check in your with students on a daily basis. The responses can also be shared with special education or any support staff who serve the students.
I have included two check-in forms for you: one for the beginning of the day and one for the end of the day. You can send both of the forms or choose to only send one.
Beginning of the Day Check-In Form
This form is designed to check in with the students before they begin their assignments (but after they locate them).
The form asks the following questions:
- How are you feeling today?
- Do you have anything to tell me? This can be about school or life.
- Were you able to find all of your work for today?
- Do you need any help getting started with your assignments?
- What questions do you have about your assignments?
End of the Day Check-In Form
This form is designed to check in with the students as they finish their learning for the day.
The form asks the following questions:
- How are you feeling now?
- How did you to do today?
- How do you feel about your assignments today? (This is a linear scale with "I didn't understand anything" at one end and "I understood everything" at the other end.)
- Do you have anything to tell me? This can be about school or life.
Note: There are now links to Weekly Check-Ins included in the PDF download as well!
Modifying the Check-In Forms
After you copy the forms to your drive, you may go in and modify any of the questions and/or add new questions. These screenshots are also included in the free download.
Assigning the Check-In Forms
When assigning the forms, I recommend you make a new copy for each week (you can keep the responses organized using the spreadsheet that Google Forms generates).

Another way to send the Check-In Forms to your students is to link them via a Google Slides Template. Here is an example template. The link to copy this template can be found in the section titled Get the Free Daily Check-In Google Forms and Slide Template Here.
Viewing the Responses
You can easily view the responses by generating a spreadsheet. The spreadsheet is automatically sorted by date and time so you can keep your responses organized. You can also sort the responses alphabetically by student name.

Note: make sure you copy the forms to your drive. If you manipulate the link, you will be compromising your students' data. YOU MUST COPY THE FORM TO YOUR DRIVE AND CREATE A NEW FORM THAT IS ONLY ACCESSIBLE BY YOU AND YOUR STUDENTS!
