Good evening from rainy Paris Hill, Maine where I’m home after a few days of fly fishing. It was nice to get away and recharge offline before a busy few months of workshops and conference keynotes starts on Monday when I fly to Kansas. I’ll probably be offline most of tomorrow too as I soak up as much time with my kids as I can before the week starts. I hope that you get time for fun and relaxation this weekend too. If part of your plans call for catching up on some ed tech reading, take a look at this week’s most popular posts.
These were the week’s most popular posts on FreeTech4Teachers.com:
1. Free iPad Apps for Creating Animated Movies
2. 10 Overlooked Google Docs Features

As I write this, I only have three days left in my 2018 workshop calendar. If you would like to have me lead a professional development day at your school in November or December, please get in touch ASAP. I can be reached at richardbyrne (at) freetech4teachers.com – more information is available here.
I’ve given keynotes at conferences from Australia to Alaska for groups of all sizes from 50 to 2,000+. My keynotes focus on providing teachers and school administrators with practical ways to use technology to create better learning experiences for all students. I like to shine the light on others and so I often share examples of great work done by others as well as my own. Send an email to richardbyrne (at) freetech4teachers.com book me today.
