Every Wednesday I highlight some of our amazing MVSD staff on our social media pages. Everyday our staff are using tech in new and exciting ways, are learning new skills, and are sharing ways in which ed tech is assisting them in their practice. This week goes out to Jordan Dyck who launched his own app to help make home learning more accessible for his Phys-Ed students!

Every Wednesday I highlight some of our amazing MVSD staff on our social media pages. Everyday our staff are using tech in new and exciting ways, are learning new skills, and are sharing ways in which ed tech is assisting them in their practice. This goes out to our MVSD staff who have elected to offer public class portals through our school websites! These not only provide resources for families but are a great way to share resources with colleagues worldwide. This is just one of many great pages now available.

Good Things Sunday
This post is inspired by the stories at the collaborative blog, One Good Thing. – I have a student in one of my classes who is dealing with many personal issues both at school and at home.
