What is Your Favorite Google Easter Egg?

 

One of may favorite brain breaks is exploring Google Easter Eggs. I love so many of these and they are always a hit as a fun and creative brain break in my classrooms.

An Easter egg is an undocumented feature or novelty in a program that the makers added for additional fun and credits. Easter eggs are in no way destructive to any software or hardware in the computer and are usually meant for something unique and fun. (Source)

We Were Made For This!

 

Learn. Believe. Change. Grow. Become. Succeed.

I personally have struggled as a teacher and a learner this year. It's been hard, but I am always reminding myself that this is a learning experience. I'm not saying I love remote learning or the hybrid experience, but I have to believe that all of this will help me become a better educator and that is always my goal. I believe in you!

That's all I have today, other than this playlist. Just a little something that helps keep me inspired.

Digital Literacy for Teachers and Learners - #DigLitCon 2021

 

#DigLitCon is less than a month away. I am looking forward to learning and exploring with some incredible educators.  More than ever I believe we need to engage students in digital literacy, media literacy, SEL, and digital citizenship.

We are connected to the world like never before, but the world also has unprecedented access to us. Navigating the digital world and building digital literacy skills is an essential skill for all learners.

ISTE Student Standard 2: Digital Citizen Students recognize the rights, responsibilities, and opportunities of living, learning and working in an interconnected digital world, and they act and model in ways that are safe, legal and ethical.

Today, I wanted to share some resources we've compiled to support teachers and learners build essential skills for digital learning and digital life.

Thank You Educators - I Appreciate You and All You Do Now More Than Ever

US Teacher Appreciation Week 2021 is here and Google does not disappoint with a new Doodle that highlights 5 awesome stories about teachers. 

US Teacher Appreciation Week 2021 Begins!

Today I wanted to take a moment to add my own thank you all the teachers and educational leaders who are doing so much to support all learners. I am thanking you all as both a parent and an educator. I also know that we all need to make an extra effort to do this more often. #TeacherAppreciation
