Teaching with"APP"-itude! □ - Blog
#2 This is the SECRET to my success...Seriously, it has changed my WHOLE classroom. I download all my products from Teachers Pay Teachers on my iPad. Whatever I plan to use for the week, I download into my iBooks. I take screenshots of the things I need and will use for the week. They are in my photos for me to use whenever I need to send them to students via AIRDROP or to put them into different time-saving apps that I use. These first two tips alone will change your life and will save you from running to the copy machine.

We chatted about her favorite songs and TV shows, and I asked her what she likes to do with her friends. “We go to the mall,” she said. “Do your parents drop you off?,” I asked, recalling my own middle-school days, in the 1980s, when I’d enjoy a few parent-free hours shopping with my friends.
