Good morning from Maine where a fresh coat of snow fell last night. It’s just enough to make for good sledding and skiing, but not so much that it’s a pain to clear from the walkways and driveway.
This week I was school vacation week here in Maine. I took most of the week off from writing new blog posts. I did, however, publish a few new videos on my YouTube channel. The rest of the week I spent mostly tinkering around the house, riding my bike, and doing a little skiing. Now I’m ready for school to start again on Monday.
These were the week’s most popular posts:
1. Three Easy Ways for Students to Make Short Audio Recordings – No Email Required
2. Whiteboard.chat – Create Online Whiteboards You Can Share and Monitor
3. Some of my Favorites – Creating Green Screen Videos
4. Video – How to Annotate Your Screen in Google Meet
5. Ten Time-savers for G Suite for Education Users
6. Some of my Favorites – Flipgrid Whiteboard
7. Some of my Favorites – DIY Common Craft Videos
