Welcome!
Smore is one of my favorite tools for creating newsletters and flyers! It is visually stunning and user-friendly. Smore provides the templates and takes care of the formatting - the user is just responsible for plugging in the content. I hope you enjoy this format as I share amazing tech integration ideas from your classrooms!
