Hello Teachers,
This month I'm sharing with you a few tools I think you will love--just in time for Valentine's Day! I've got something for my elementary folks (GoNoodle), something I think both teachers and students will enjoy using (Canva) and then the tool that is going to change your life (Classroom Screen). Check them out when you have time and I hope you enjoy adding more tech tools to your toolbox.

Classroom Screen
This awesome tech tool was developed by a teacher in the Netherlands (Laurens Koppers) who wanted to provide a "free" and simple way to help students stay more focused by turning your screen into an interactive board.
Things you can do with Classroom Screen:
- change your background
- use a calculator
- set a timer
- create a QR code
- draw on it
- write text
- traffic light for classroom noise
- and more...
See the link below for everything you need to know about this "cool tool".
