There are thousands, maybe even millions, of chrome apps and websites that could be useful in a classroom. How can you possibly test them all out? Well, you can't, but I can show you a handful of purposeful apps that can be used in all subject areas. During this full day workshop we'll learn the ins and outs of apps that are specific for math and language arts, but also delve into a number of platforms that can be used in any subject. These are apps that I use on a regular basis in my classroom because of their versatility, teacher control, data options, and student engagement.

This workshop will be very hands-on so it's important that you bring a chromebook or laptop.
