Good morning from Maine where it is pouring rain. It was a busy week here as I hosted the second session of the Practical Ed Tech Virtual Summer Camp. Today, I’m going to relax a bit by splashing in puddles and doing some arts and crafts with my daughters. I hope that you’re also planning to something fun and relaxing this weekend.
Before I jump to the list of this week’s most popular posts I want to remind you that in addition to the daily email newsletter from Free Technology for Teachers, I also offer a weekly Practical Ed Tech newsletter. That newsletter comes out on Sunday evening. It features my favorite tip of the week and the list of the week’s most popular posts. Sign up here.
