You can take notes & define words right within your book in Sora! And, those notes & definitions remain on your "Home" tab even after the book's returned. Need to bring your notes to class? No worries! Just export them. #TipTuesday #SoraInTheClassroom #EdTech #EBookLove #EBooks

I recently put together a few Healing Library kits to loan out. I am surprised at how much use the "Death of a Loved One" kit has gotten so far this year. Our families are so thankful that we have this resource for them. thehealinglibraryus.com/

I have been working on a project where I get info on all sorts of apps and websites used by PreK-12 teachers. My targeted advertising is so confused right now trying to figure out why I am suddenly interested in such a diverse set of interests.
