It’s the last day of April. In some ways this month seemed to fly by and in others it seemed to drag along. The part that flew by was all work related as I was constantly answering questions from students, colleagues, and readers in between hosting virtual class meetings and webinars. The part that dragged along was all related to weather. Winter wouldn’t give way to spring here and we had more than a handful of snowy days here in Maine.
As I do at the end of every month, I’ve created a list of the most popular posts of the month. It will probably not be a surprise to you that most of the posts in the list address topics related to online instruction. Take a look and see if there is something useful that you missed earlier in the month.
These were the most popular posts in April:
1. An Option for Making Sure Students Know They Have Google Classroom Assignments
2. An Overview of How Students View and Return Assignments in Google Classroom
3. Now You Can Use Flipgrid to Make Screencast Videos
4. 5 Google Classroom Tips for Teachers – Things You Might Have Overlooked or Forgotten
5. Google Classroom Assignments from Teacher and Student Perspectives – Nine Lessons
6. 5 Things You Should Never Do In a Virtual Staff Meeting
