I always love to visit @TechTorpey and watch this master teacher at work! Today her students are making magic happen with ShapeGrams! She shared a @edpuzzle video and @Schoology Google Drive Assignment with a drawing template. A great way to explore the functions of G Drawing.

#DigCitWeek Day 2! The internet can be a fun and informative place, but it can also be dangerous! These rules won't just reduce kids' risk as they navigate the online world—they'll make them smarter, safer navigators of the real world, too 🌎 brnpop.co/3ERmkqH

My wife loved math. Her dream job was to help teachers pass her love of math on to their students.
I just helped public school classrooms on DonorsChoose, in her memory. Support a classroom in need today. donorschoose.org/?utm_source…

Counting the days, @os_tigers, until we are together again.
@NewlineIDEAMAX boards are going into our classrooms. I hope you are as excited about our new technology as I am!
This room should be an easy guess!

The Tiger reminds you: Don't forget your computer today!
Make sure you are charging it each night -- whether you take it home or leave it in the cart at school.

Cross curricular learning at its best! Students in @TechTorpey class extend their Virginia Studies learning and apply it into customized, self-created maps in Google Earth. #bettertogether
