Sing-A-Long Playlist for Teachers I don't know about you, but I sound really good in the car with the volume all the way up. If you like to sing along, this is the playlist for you!

Awards Certificate Templates My favorite professional development ever was with the Friday Institute at NC State University. One of the reasons it is my favorite is because there was intentional time built in to build community and celebrate one another. Funny awards was one way we did this. We could award anyone, anything, at anytime. I imagine you using these award templates in the same way. Make up funny award names, randomly give them to your students and other teachers. Watch the smiles bloom! *The first page in the template is done as an example for you. The template is sized at 11 x 8.5. You can resize this with the Canva resize tool to be able to print more than one to a page.

Digital Papers Paper crafting is one of my hobbies, and I've always loved stationary and patterned paper. I have now discovered digital paper and all of the fun things you can do with it. Think slide backgrounds, printed notecards, patterned frames in Canva. This list can go on and on!

Mood Boost Playlist for Teachers Its been a long week, and you probably need a little bit of a mood booster on this Friday!

Curiosity Creators According to an article in Edutopia, curiosity makes our brains more receptive to learning, makes learning more effective and enjoyable, and curios students not only ask more questions, but will also actively seek the answers. These Curiosity Creators work great as bell ringers, or tie them to your content for an added bonus.
