Germs, Math, and Videos – The Week in Review

Good morning from Maine where it’s a clear and cold morning. Earlier this week we had our first real accumulation of snow. That snow covering will make it easier for me to drag our Christmas tree to the house later this morning. My daughters are excited to help decorate the Christmas tree this weekend. I hope that you have something that you’re equally excited to do this weekend. 

Every once in a while a blog post that I published months or even years ago is resurfaced by someone who then shares it on social media. That’s evident when you look at this week’s list of the most popular posts. The post about math problems was published in July but was one of this week’s most popular posts. The whole list is included below. 

These were the week’s most popular posts:

1. Germ Science Investigation – A Game About Stopping the Spread of COVID-19
2. Three Updated Google Docs Features

3. Five Helpful PowerPoint Features You Might Be Overlooking
4. Three Places to Find Fun and Interesting Math Problems
5. My Big List of Tools for a Variety of Classroom Video Projects

6. Two Easy Ways to Make Your Own Mobile App

7. Scan Documents and QR Codes With Your Chromebook
