Back to school...collecting resources for students!

In researching tidbits my students will need, I ran across this on FB shared by Cool Cat Teacher

This will be a valuable resource for my students. We do a lot of research in science and I teach them to give credit.  This will be the first hand out I give.  

Hope this is helpful to your class.

26 ways to go paperless!

For a teacher paper is a big deal! I am constantly fighting my students to bring paper. I am always buying paper for my class. It is a fine line between pencils and paper and you can't teach without it.  

Last year my district adopt a new policy that students can bring their own device to school.  So I quicky tried to become paperless.  We put almost everything on google docs.  They emailed me their work.  I edited, graded, and sent it back. It was great.  I am working out the bugs, but I like it.  

I found this post I wanted to share ;
