- This link takes you to a presentation that helps you with clipart, fonts, templates for creating your own documents.
- Google Voice (fake phone number to give to parents that will connect them to your cell phone. This way they will not know your actual number and you can get a new fake one each year. It also time stamps every call and transcribes your voicemails and texts.)
- Click on "resources" and it will take you to all the presentations by these two ladies. Many of them are on using the ipad and apps in the classroom.
