Google Updates - Anywhere School, Accessibility, and Educator Resources

Google has some great updates coming this summer and today I wanted share a few that we are excited to explore.

Create a QR Code Activity - Get Students Up and Moving With QR Code Creators

 

I thought QR codes were done, right? Apparently, not so fast. (get the reference?) Maybe it is a side effect of the pandemic and more paperless menus or maybe there is more two these odd little images than I ever realized?

Today, I wanted to share some easy to use QR code creators and ideas on how to use them to engage students with something besides games on those pesky phones. You could also use a laptop or Chromebook with a web camera, but this is sometimes a bit awkward. 

Music to Celebrate and Inspire Our Students As We Close the School Year

It's graduation season and I was thinking about songs to celebrate and maybe inspire students as the year comes to the end. I think a YouTube Playlist is the easiest place to organize and share, so here we go.
