The Week in Review - The Most Popular Posts - Free Technology For Teachers

Good morning from Maine where it is a great day for a walk in the woods. On a walk earlier this week the signs of spring were all around us as we saw frozen streams starting to melt and more birds than we’ve seen in months including a Great Horned Owl. Here’s a little video that I made on our walk. Of course, the next day we had two inches of fresh snow fall. That’s life in Maine and I wouldn’t have it any other way. Wherever you are this weekend, I hope that it’s a great one for you.
