How was your week? I hope you have a restful and/or fun weekend ahead. My husband and I have plans to visit our son in college. UW Whitewater (football) plays UW Oshkosh tonight and then fall baseball starts tomorrow (baseball). I love this time of year where the outside temps are cooler and yet we can still enjoy the outdoors comfortably. 

This week I listened to two new podcasts and enjoyed one more than the other. Before I share the two podcasts, have you noticed that some podcasts are now requiring a subscription to listen to certain episodes? I'm not ready to pay for additional episodes for any of the podcasts that I listen to. Not yet anyway.


The first podcast, which I really enjoyed, is called Best Friend Energy from The Home Edit. I've been following Joanna and Clea for a long time on social media and Netflix. It shouldn't be surprising that I enjoy following two people who are into organization and creating stunning spaces. The first episode made me laugh and smile throughout the entire 30 minutes.

The second podcast, Digital Learning Podcast,  by Matt Miller and Holly Clark I found to be a bit dry and the content didn't keep my attention. I know quite a bit about Blended Learning, which was the topic, so I wasn't really learning anything new. Perhaps this is why I found myself losing focus and thinking of other things. I'll still listen to the next episode and continue to give this podcast a listen.

Anyway, this week's Links and Loves covers several updates to platforms that we use often in our district: GoGuardian Teacher and Canvas LMS. I hope one of these is useful to you.

See you next week ðŸ¤—

Concrete poems are words written in a shape to convey a poem. They look like this: Recently I went on a mission to search for a site to use with a fellow colleague and her students. They wanted to make concrete poetry on their Chromebooks. There aren't many sites that allow the user to actually write words into any shape.  There is the Read, Write, Think interactive for Theme Poetry.  Here is what it looks like. The words can be added inside of a shape. The interactive guides students through the writing process There is a site from WildAboutWoods.org  where a person can choose a shape or draw one of their own and add words inside of the shape. There are word banks to choose from or a person can type in their own words to add to the shape. I like that adding words is as simple as click and drag f
