The Art of Learning to use a Chromebook and other great finds!

This Chromebook training by Nadine Gilkison is AMAZING! I think it is intended to use with students but I think it would be awesome for adult training, too!


Actually, all of Nadine's stuff is great. You should definitely check her out on Twitter or on her blog!

TeacherLed.com

TeacherLed.com is a website full of teaching and learning resources. All are compatible with desktop and mobile devices and no subscriptions or log-ins are needed. Here are some of my favorites: Letter Reveal : Scratch off one box at a time as students guess which letter is underneath. Virtual Dice : Roll 1, 2 or 3 die at a time to work on subitizing or addition. Hundreds Chart : I especially like this hundreds chart because you can “roll” it forward or backward to reveal negative numbers or numbers past 100. Magnetic Numbers : I like that the “flip cards” reveal random numbers. For example, for the image above you could work on mentally adding 45 and 30. Then you can click either the 4 or 5 in 45 and work on counting by decades from a different number. There are many more interactive activities for both math and language arts. You can check out their resources here as well as a collection of all their resources here .
