Hi, Blog Followers! Last week I share ideas on how to reduce paper use and I enjoyed meeting with a few of you about it this week. Did you know that I'm here to help you convert paper assessments to an online platform? I'll show you how but, once you understand the process, I'll even help you do the work! I know it can be overwhelming so lets teamwork it so we can get you up and running faster. If you'd like to get together to work towards using less paper or chat about any of the other resources I've shared, just set up an appointment with me on my website at  http://appointment.simmonsclassroom.com . I'd love to connect with more teachers! And, as always, you can see the tips from the past weeks by  clicking on the slide below  and then using the arrows to scroll through the other slides in the deck.

Hi, Blog Followers! This week's theme comes to you by request from a teacher at the high school. Did you know that our printing costs actually went UP at the high school when we got 1:1 laptops? With the budgetary concerns, I'd highly recommend thinking about how you can put your technology to better use and reduce your paper use at the same time.  If you'd like to get together to work towards using less paper or chat about any of the other resources I've shared, just set up an appointment with me on my website at  http://appointment.simmonsclassroom.com .

Hi, Blog Followers! Google Expeditions have been going strong in the science department at the high school lately. Google also released a big update to Expeditions that makes it super easy to take students on tours that we create. I would love to create tours with anyone that is willing!  If you'd like to get together to learn how your students can create a Google Expedition or chat about any of the other resources I've shared, just set up an appointment with me on my website at  http://appointment.simmonsclassroom.com .

Hi, Blog Followers! Today's message is focused on productivity thanks to several conversations I have been having about our connected lives. You might even want to share some of the resources with your students to help them manage their time better. I recently subscribed to a filtering program for my house and it has helped to make us more aware of how much time we are spending looking at screens.  If you'd like to get together to learn about any of these things, plan a lesson together integrating more technology, get some guidance with setting up your GP/HOW check in on Synergy, or get non-evaluative feedback just set up an appointment with me on my website at  http://appointment.simmonsclassroom.com . And anyone who makes an appointment gets to pick a prize from my staff of stuff!
