Digital Process Logs
With regards to the digital piece...have I told you how much I love Seesaw? I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Seesaw! It is so powerful and very kid friendly. You could easily make your process logs digital with Seesaw. For those of you who have not checked it out yet, you need to! If you want to learn more about Seesaw, let me know. I would love to share.

Microsoft Outlook Clutter
Are a lot of emails falling under Clutter in your inbox? Did you know you can disable Clutter? I didn't know either, but you can!
To disable Clutter:
- log into Outlook 365 (the website not the desktop client)
- click on the Gear (upper right hand corner)
- choose Options
- under Automatic Processing click Clutter
- select Don't separate items identified as Clutter
- click Save
This will sync with all outlook accounts once done. Yay!
