Technology applications, low and high tech, are appreciated. Above all--be positive and professional in sharing your experiences and ideas. Thanks.

My creative friend, Lauren Swedenborg, just created this video on activities to develop hand skills. What a way to use her snow days here in Virginia! Enjoy this first of many videos to come.
