Hi! Am here! Yes! It's a "Toys, Tools, Tech" topic tonight!
-
And no leader for tonight! :) Am happy to or if anyone wants to jump in feel free! :)
-
hi how are you? Might not be here for all of chat as I'm studying too
-
That's fine! Am still waiting on tweetchat to get itself settled! HOw is everyoe?!
-
Hi all sorry having tech issues too- trying another computer! All good here, how are you all?
-
Am in tech issues as well! Tweetchat is slow to load tonight! Have been poorly w a cold for 2 weeks! :(
-
Oh no 😷 have you been off ? Warmer weather might cheer us all up soon 😊 hope you're on the mend?
-
Few and far between or a daily occurrence, those moments of joy shared with your students are priceless, Love and laugh.
-
I hope so! Going for massage after this- I think the cold is knotted up in my back? Am stiff! Can't move!
-
Toys, tools and tech! Our favorite topic :)
-
The weather here is definitely getting nicer! Sunny and warm for February! Feels like have been sleeping!
-
still no tweetchat for me- you?
-
Yak! poor you. Hopefully chat will make you feel better must admit V tired and not feeling inspired
-
haaaa am feeling the same exact way!! :) Shall we call it a night?
-
Tell us more about StoryBots as sound fab
-
Looks like you have the floor! :) Tell us more about Story Bots :)
-
I don't use it anymore as it never works for me- use Tweetdeck now :) Would let me login and then not load chat
-
100% free for teachers :) We have hundreds of learning ebooks, videos, new math skills games, teacher tools
-
hmmm- I've been ok w it for awhile but I know is being less than friendly to developers like tweetchat
-
You should go to bed :) We could be inspired next week? up to you :) nothing worse when you feel ill

Interesting article! Thank you for sharing this and your app with us! :)
-
-
-
Thank YOU! We would love to hear any thoughts/feedback you have once you give it a try
-
-
will do! I go up and down w tech so will be sure to take a look! :)
-
I miss using it tbh, but it just will not load for me anymore :( easier than Tweetdeck that's for sure!
-
Awesome! Are there other particular platforms/products you like or dislike for the classroom?
-
it's less the this or that of tech its that tech is opposite of what kids need today They need f2f x
-
So that's why/how I get super saturated on the topic. Little kids are learning to share, work together.
-
So I guess my answer would be I'd look for apps that require multiple kids helping on one ipad
-
We agree! We aim to create content that is complementary and works 2 increase interaction, not detract
-
Ok friends, I think we have an early night here on Tired teachers! :) Let's regroup for next week's party?!
-
-
So important! Thank you for knowing! So many are noisy, gimmicky, some great! Will take a look for sure!
-
:) OK Heidi goodnight and feel better soon
-
TY! Most of our teachers prefer using as whole class/group activity on white board or stations
-
As tech becomes super saturated into kids lives, school is critical for interaction, teamwork, social, empathy Soft skills
-
Will be sure to take a look! Thank you so much! :) Closing up early tonight here! Goodnight all!
-
Good night all! Thanks for your consideration :) Let us know any feedback you have
