- Snow Day Reprise
In ten years of being a chair, tomorrow will be the second day I have missed a county wide meeting (so I can work with my AP Comp kids to better prepare for the AP exam). I was going to present on how to teach students on a snow day. But...
- What To Do On A Snow Day Tomorrow
The other day I learned that my book has gone to be printed and will definitely be out on the 27th of this month. One of the topics I discuss is how to deal with "alternative days" such as snow ones. If you like what you see below, you might...
- Flipping The Classroom Presentation
Tomorrow I am doing a presentation for my county on flipping the classroom. If you can make it it will be at the Leis Center at 1-3:30. For those of you who can't here is what we will be doing. What will be taught: We will learn...
- School On A Snow Day
I will admit that I can't get away with this with all of my classes, but my AP Comparative (which is AP US Government and AP Comparative in one year) is a motivated bunch. So while today is our second snow day (actually a "cold day" since it is 5...

Screencasts to Help In The Classroom
I love Screencastomatic as it allows you to record and very quickly upload into Youtube a screencast of up to 15 minutes. Thursday one of my colleagues will be at a meeting and so he actually recorded two fifteen minute lectures where we spoke while showing the screen to his students. So the kids will bring in their ear buds and once they are done presenting their projects, they will not miss a beat without their teacher.
As if that is not enough above is a video detailing how a friend/colleague can record their screen and send you a link to see what problem they might be having. The site is called "show me what is wrong." For me this is perfect for students who are having problems accessing their e-books or really any problem they are having. I found this video along with a bunch of other ways to create screencasts on FreeTech4Teachers.
