1. Sphero Kits-We now have Sphero kits available for projects! We have 12 Sphero Sprk+ and 12 Ollies. Both are programmable robots that can be used in a wide range of projects! Use this site and filters to explore projects that you could use in your classroom! Check out our Spheros in action! Shout out to Kim Basile and Jeni Teramoto for being brave and being the first to try them out! 2. Google Apps Shortcut-When using Chrome, there is an 'Apps' shortcut in the top left-hand corner. This shortcut opens up a dashboard of quick links to most of the Google Apps and extensions that you have added to Chrome. 3. Google Expeditions-I wanted to remind you that Google Expeditions has a ton of really neat new resources! They have now enabled the AR experience for some tours (versus the VR experience where students stay in one location and move their iPad in all directions to view a scene around them). This means that students would now see an object placed in the classroom and then can walk around it and view it from different perspectives. Here is an article that goes more in depth, but definitely check out the video at the bottom of the page! The best way to view all of the tours Google Expeditions has to offer is by downloading the app and browsing their list. They have tours of colleges, body systems, landmarks, historical events, ecosystems, etc. As always, please reach out if you have an idea for a project or starting the goal implementation process! I'm also happy to meet with content teams to listen to your upcoming units and propose ideas that fit with your activities.
