Tomorrow starts "Read through the Constitution in a Month" Month! Here's the calendar. Each day, I'll post that day's section of the Constitution plus a brief explanation. We all need to know our nation's foundational document to stay wise in these times. Thanks for joining me on this project!

Discovered TA.Padlet.com yesterday and love how easy it is to make worksheets! Made a match up one in ten seconds today! They have other tools too but that’s all I tried so far.

A fun free online game (similar to Pictionary) - that can be educational if you upload your own list of words (think spelling lists or review words on a topic you have been studying) is Drawasaurus. You can play on any device but easier on bigger ones as there are ads that get in the way.
