Coming This Sunday Evening If you're not subscribed my newsletter, you can do so right here. But if you don't want to subscribe to my newsletter, that's okay. I do have the following videos to share with you on the topic of email etiquette. The video below was made by a teacher for the purpose of sharing email etiquette tips with students.  Watch Clear Email Communication by Common Craft to learn how to get a recipient's attention and how to get a response from that recipient. Disclosure: I have a long-standing, in-kind relationship with Common Craft.      Five Things To Make With Google Slides Besides Standard Presentations Create Choose Your Own Adventure Stories in Google Slides This is a project that I helped a fourth grade class do a few years ago. The students wrote short stories in Google Slides. The ending of their stories had three possible outcomes. Each outcome was linked to the final paragraph of their stories. When readers got to the last paragraph they could click to choose the ending they wanted to read. In this video I demonstrate how to create choose your own adventure stories in Google Slides.  Create Comic Strips in Google Slides By using tables and the built-in clipart in Google Slides you can create your own comic strips. Watch this video to learn how to do that.  Make an Animated Video With Google Slides More than a decade ago Common Craft pioneered a new style of video using very simple animations to craft clear explanations of complex topics. Students make that same style of video by using some clipart, some basic Google Slides transitions, and a screencasting tool like Screencastify. That process is demonstrated in this short video.  Place Yourself in Front of Any Landmark With Google Slides I mentioned this idea last week in my video about icebreaker activities with Google Drawings and Slides. The idea is to use a tool like Photoscissors to remove the background from a photograph of yourself and then overlay that new image on a Google Slide of a famous landmark or any pretty scenery of your choice.  Make Interactive Diagrams and Charts in Google Slides This is the activity that I mentioned in yesterday's blog post. As I shared yesterday, you can have students make interactive diagrams of just about any process or sequence. I've had students make interactive diagrams to mock-up mobile apps and I've had them make interactive diagrams of trouble-shooting processes. When I taught U.S. History I had students make interactive diagrams of the branches of government.    The 2021-22 Practical Ed Tech Handbook 1. Communication with students and parents – page 5 2.
