Good morning from Maine where I’m still groggy from all of the turkey I ate on Thursday. It’s either that or my coffee hasn’t kicked in this morning. Like many parents of young children I try get up an hour before my kids do in order to get a quiet moment for coffee and writing a blog post or two. I hope that all of you also get a quiet moment for coffee or other beverage this weekend.
Every Saturday I take a look at the analytics for Free Technology for Teachers and put together a list of the most read posts of the last week. Take a look and see if there’s anything interesting that you missed during the week.
These were the week’s most popular posts:
1. Ten Google Meet Features for Teachers – Fall 2020 Update
2. The Differences Between American and Canadian Thanksgiving
3. A Crash Course in Computer Science
4. An Easy Way to Make Videos on Windows 10 Computers
