Let’s be grateFALL for Google’s free fonts. These GOURDgeous fonts have a fall feel. πŸ‚

Fonts with strong personalities are great for stylish titles and logos, but their readability make them unsuitable for body text. #EduSky #EdTech

#EduSky where my #ruraled peeps at?

One way I try to impact my little area is to do a Saturday Morning Live Story Time for my local Arts Council.

It's not great, but it's a story and a quick lesson about c/g sounds.

I used this activity to introduce the frayer model to my 2nd graders, quickly assess their level of mastering sorting/identifying vowels and consonants. A fun way to begin the school year.

It is a training. It's very good.
A lot of what's covered is in the book "Uncovering the Logic of English," which is an excellent read for anyone on #EduSky looking for a good book about reading instruction.

Hey for those of you that need to create student accounts, I found a really handy Google sheets add-on for creating kid-friendly passwords. They're totally not secure so if that's a big deal, don't use it but I thought I'd share it here.

IMO, most educators are too overwhelmed by an ineffective system.

I think things can be so incestuously tangled/corrupt in smaller communities.

MOST of our $$ goes to district admin & staff, not suport staff.

So, we're just surviving a broken system.
