Hello all. It's finally Friday and its Super Bowl weekend and the Olympics are happening.   I plan on watching both this weekend as well as cooking some yummy appetizers for my family. 


Monday is Valentine's Day. If you are looking for a way to print a personalized card for your students or colleagues, I recommend using Canva which has printable folded cards available for free. 


Did you know that Nearpod offers free test prep activities for all grade levels and content areas? We're just a few weeks away from testing season.

Nearpod is also offering FREE trainings and webinars on February 25 - 27. The event is called Camp Engage and will be virtual.  If you register you will be able to participate live or watch the recorded sessions when you have time. Register here if you are interested. 

That's all I have time for today. Thank you for reading this post. Have a great weekend and stay warm!
