Good morning from Maine where the the air is cool and crisp, the leaves are colorful, and everyone is dressed in their favorite flannel. These are the days that everyone pictures when they think about New England in the fall. I can’t wait to get outside! I hope that wherever you are this weekend that you can get outside too.
This week was my first full week back in the classroom on a full-time basis. That’s my reason for having fewer blog posts that usual. But I’ll get back up to speed after I get my classroom on track. I took over a computer science program that had an instructor quit in the first week of school so I’m trying to fill in a lot of gaps right now.
These were the week’s most popular posts:
1. 15 Digital Citizenship Resources for K-12
2. Fraidy Cats’ Book of Courage – An eBook of Writing Prompts
3. 7 Styles of Classroom Video Projects – Tools and Tips for Making Them
4. How to Find and Create Primary Source Lessons With DocsTeach
5. Loop – A Nice System for Gathering Feedback from Students
6. How to Create a Transcript of Any YouTube Video
7. The Practical Ed Tech Podcast Episode #10 Featuring Adam Bellow
