Apps and Technology for Today's Educators





Whether you are no stranger to technology or are a newbie, I have created a small but great list of the
latest apps and websites educators can use to make life easier.

Want to spice things up a bit and bring more life to the literature in your classroom? This wonderful website has 23 books for the K-5 classrooms that "are designed to stimulate higher level thinking skills and to connect the story’s themes and messages to the issues of the real world in which students live."
 
 
 
In addition to these forms of technology, you can check additional ideas and resources on my pinterest board: Technology in the Classroom...
