Mobile Permissions

 Mobile Permissions is the excellent free site the educators are using to easily send "digital" permission slips for FREE.  Recently, they launched a new feature which lets educators send permission slips "on demand" which is ideal for when teachers need immediate permission of a parent/guardian and don't have time to wait for a form to be returned.  Also, this is a perfect tool to use w/ Remote Learning due to the closures of school from the worldwide pandemic.

Finally, Mobile Permissions has been hard at work creating Virtual Field trips.  These field trips can be an asset to any educator for students required to do Distance Learning at home.  These field trips are easy to use as they incorporate "guided tours" of different museums and cities around the world.  These "guided tours" come w/ a packet of questions/answers for teachers to use w/ their students when taking their virtual tour.

Blackbird

Blackbird is an excellent new online platform designed to teach students how to program/code.  This is done through a very easy-to-use interface where students progress through stages typing code and watching their results.  If a student gets stuck there is a "show me" button to help them progress as well: tips, videos, and helpful tutorials to help students and teachers integrate coding into their classroom.  Best of all, Blackbird has an educational portal to monitor and track student progress to make it easy to assess student learning.

Below is a brief demo...
