March Appy Hour
Come join us to learn and/or share about interactive creativity apps: Creative Book Builder, TouchCast and ThingLink. Yes, that is thing followed by link. It's March madness! Get your creative juices flowing and be inspired whether you have used the app or not, please join the collaborative discussion and learn about how other teachers are using the apps in their classrooms with great success.
Why just engage your students when you can empower them?
We hope to see you there!

Creative Book Builder
Create, edit and publish eBooks in minutes. Everyone can write a book...a multimedia-packed book that dares the reader to skip a page! Yes, your claim to fame can also be author. Ready to write, draw and act in an interactive eBook?
TouchCast
The iTunes store describes it beautifully, "A TouchCast is a video that is fully browsable, responsive, and alive. Webpages, images, and an assembly of video Apps (vApps) can be tapped for a two-way video experience." Green screen is cool too. Intrigued yet?
Professional Development Opportunity
Teachers have the opportunity to earn the professional development rate of $38.00 per hour for attending Appy Hour events or earn hours toward units to move over on the salary schedule. A sign in sheet will be available at the event for teachers to indicate which option is preferred.
