TECH TIP:  JustBeamIt

If you ever have students who need to share large files with you, especially ones that are too big to email, you could use JustBeamIt.  With JustBeamIt, you drag the files you want to share - and you can drag in multiple files - onto the BeamIt page, and then once they have uploaded, you get a URL link that they can share with you to gain access to the files.  

Thanks to FreeTech4Teachers for this tip.

BOOK TIP:  Truly Madly Guilty by Liane Moriarty

 I've long been a fan of Liane Moriarty, who writes realistic novels that deal with emotional traumas.  From page one, I'm drawn right in.  One of her novels, "Big Little Lies", is now an HBO show starring Nicole Kidman.  In her latest novel, Truly Madly Guilty, three couples get together for a Sunday afternoon barbeque, but what happens at the dinner, changes the lives of all forever.  But you're left wondering what happened throughout much of the novel, keeps you turning the pages!
