Poetry, Google Classroom, and Twine – The Week in Review

Good evening from Maine where it is a crisp, cool early fall evening. The change of seasons is one of my favorite things about living in northern New England. Yesterday afternoon I had a great time walking in the woods with my dogs. Today, we had fun taking our kids for a walk along a river. I hope that wherever you are, you’re having a great weekend too. If part of your weekend includes catching up on some tech reading, take a look at the following list of the most popular posts of the week on Free Technology for Teachers.

These were the week’s most popular posts:
1. Two New Google Classroom Features That Everyone Has Been Asking For!
2. ReadWorks Now Integrates With Google Classroom
3. Poetry 180 – A Poem for Every Day of the School Year
4. 250 Google Tools Tutorials for Teachers

Book Me for Your Conference

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.
