Summer Bloggin’ – Monday Meet Up!

This is so exciting!
I’m new to the blogging world so any chance I get to “meet” other amazing bloggers, I jump on it! The Teaching Tribune is hosting week-long summer bloggin’ goodness and I’ll be linking up as often as I can!



I got to “chat” with Charlene over at Diamond Mom’s Treasury. She’s a super cool lady with lots of teaching experience! Here’s what I learned about her!



Click on Charlene’s button to head on over to her blog!


Stay tuned for tomorrow! You won’t want to miss this!

    Loved the post! Charlene seems like a very compassionate person, and man, 30 years AND blogging? That. Is. Awesome! I love when experienced teachers share their ideas and experience via technology so that we can learn from them from miles away! 🙂

Have you used @playosmo at home or in your classro Have you used @playosmo at home or in your classroom??

We were lucky enough to be gifted this Little Genius Starter Kit and it is the coolest thing ever! My 4 year old is hooked and I love that she's learning while playing on the iPad. ➡️ Swipe to check out the letter formation game she was working on.

From phonics and numbers to storytelling and coding, there are so many games, activities and kits to choose from! There's even a Disney Frozen activity kit that I may already have hidden away for Hanukkah!

Osmo would be the perfect addition to any classroom too (especially if you already have an iPad!) I could see this being used during reading or math centers. How would you use Osmo in your classroom??
