Post #2: This weather is intense!

Will this heat ever get better?! I work at a daycare with sixty school-age kids and it has been terrible trying to keep them inside as much as possible. Since my last blog, I was semi-depressed that the U.S.A. women's soccer team lost, but Japan just made better decisions in the end. I was in Dayton last night to visit family and friends and I am getting ready to head to Indianapolis for the night and then I am going to Wisconsin tomorrow for the weekend. I have some family there and my cousin's little girl is turning one so we are going for her birthday party. I'm excited to just get away for a couple days and enjoy a little family time!
For the class, I am liking all of the projects much more than I thought I would to be honest. I never thought I would think all of them would be such valuable resources but I can truly say that the majority of them are. I had never used Google Documents before and I love how easy it is to make such detailed and visually appealing resources for your classroom. I loved being able to make an online quiz and using Flubaroo as a grading tool. I think that could be a great resource for practice quizzes that your students could work on with their parents if they are struggling or want a little extra practice.
I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend and are surviving the heat!
