Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!

In observance of our holiday break, the 10 Minute Tuesday will take time off too! I plan on resuming the 10 Minute Tuesdays on January 9, 2018. 


January topics will include the New Google Sites and making your site more ADA compliant. 

I hope everyone has a relaxing and enjoyable break! See you on January 3rd!

Breakout Boxes -- Done Digitally

Breakout Boxes -- Done Digitally

December 12, 2017

I am the world's worst at using locks that do not have a key. With that said, the library has 4 Breakout boxes that can be checked out for you to create your own Breakout. One box is missing a 4 letter word lock but I hope to replace that soon.

As I have had several teachers wanting to use the boxes on the same day since we had our recent inservice, I began thinking how can we make this happen quickly. Solution, let's go digital!

I have found many resources on this topic and thought I should share them with you.

Just Replacing the Box: 

This is for the person that has a breakout planned but didn't realize how popular the boxes were going to be or needs more than what we have.






Creating a website to make the entire experience digital: 

I found this website that has template site for you to copy and even an example. You'll still need to create a form like above, but this allows you to put your clues online as well.

If you have any questions or want help creating a form, come see me in the library.
