Library resources for students with concussions
Fun way for students to present information
Our subscription to Discovery Ed includes Board Builder, a way for students to build online posters that incorporate text, images, videos and audio. I have collaborated with a few teachers on projects using Board Builder and would be happy to help you design a project as well.

New Chester County Library Resources
An English teacher and I recently collaborated with a public librarian to distribute library cards to students, after which they explored the awesome resources available to them and their families. Contact me if you're interested in doing this for your students.
Recent articles from education journals
The links below will take you to recently published articles in Education Digest and Education Week. Our EBSCO subscription includes the ERIC database, in which these publications and many more are found. If you are taking grad classes, the ERIC database is a go-to resource. You will need to log into EBSCO to view the articles; email if you need help logging in.
