Week of October 19, 2015
Ask and you shall receive. Seems to be that kind of week :-)
For the Teachers #1--Self Paced online Prof. Development
The NCEES is offering online professional development for CEU credits.There are several choices in the self paced section. I have not taken any of these but I signed up last night. Take a look if this sounds interesting to you! (Thanks for sharing this Amy W.!)
this is a freebie that allows you to save articles, images, & videos from the internet & put them in your "Pocket" to read/reference later. You can tag, send to a friend, favorites, and more. It's so cool!
For the Teachers #3 - Canvas (the software WCPSS chose to replace Blackboard, effective June 30, 2016)
I am looking for some boots on the ground from each grade level/team who are willing to hike through the features with me. Canvas offers integrated Google Doc Collaboration, teacher video feedback/lesson creation, assign work, assign tests/quizzes, group work features, calendar, posts notes, project rubrics, newsletters, and more. We can meet (3-4 times this year) afterschool or during planning- PLEASE email me if you're interested!!

RMS and HES Teams,
My techie thought for the week is to go off the grid this weekend...I think rainy days are sent to us from time to time to remind us to spend time in conversation with those we love. So, bake cookies, build a fort, cook dinner together, tell crazy weather stories, or play a board game.
Have a great weekend!
