5C Badge Program Reminder

Would you like a Chromebook that you can use whenever you want? Even take it home to use there too? Complete the Frisco ISD Tech Department's 5C Badge program and a chromebook is yours (as long as you remain employed by FISD). 

Work with your DLC (Penney Matos) to create lessons that integrate 5C skills into your curriculum using technology to showcase the 5C skill. 

Let me know if you're interested and I'll enroll you in the 5C Badge program Canvas course!

Humor Boosts Creative Thinking and Problem-Solving in the Classroom

TCEA recently shared this on Facebook:
"When we think about creativity and innovation, the words “humor” and “goofiness” don’t typically come to mind. But I’d argue that this is a critical piece of what it means to cultivate a climate of creativity."
It then linked to John Spencer's Five Ways Humor Boosts Creative Thinking and Problem-Solving in the Classroom.

It's worth your time to take a look.
