Daily Instagram Updates
The objectives and activities for the day must always be neatly markered on my classroom whiteboard for students and principal to see. Wouldn’t it be great if I could put that same information online without having to retype everything I just wrote out in pretty colors? Couldn’t I just take a picture on my phone and send it out to all of my eager and absent kids? I mean I suppose I could copy and paste my lesson plans into a Google Calendar that I embed in the class web page, but maybe I’m just lazy. And spoiled. I want to do everything from my phone, without all of that clicking and toggling and mousing around.

Now, did that really save me more time than just typing them all out? Well, no. But it will. I’ll have this page set up now, the system for searching lessons by hashtag, and a quick update as I walk out the door…and into 4G territory. So really, I will be getting more use out of the time I do spend.
And it looks kind of cool.
