Faculty Notes

Happy Friday!

I hope your first week back in the saddle was a good one!

National Junior Honor Society

Many thanks to Kathy Pirtle, Anita Ellis, Kelly Long, and Elizabeth Mosely for making this year's NJHS induction ceremony such a rousing success.  I would also like to thank Greg Fuller and the SAGE staff for their work.  The ceremony was simply fantastic, and that was due to the hard work of the people mentioned above.  Thank you!!

Professional Development Resources

Here are some resources that I hope you will find helpful in your daily teaching:

TED-ED Brain Trust

This is a new forum you can join for lots of creative ideas for use in the classroom.  I blogged about it recently here.

"Fakebook" and "Twister"

Facebook and Twitter are both locked down here at Trinity during the school day.  However, the folks over at iLearnTechnology have a neat article about alternatives to these two sites that can be used in an educational setting.  I invite you to check it out!

Khan Academy

If you have not looked at Khan Academy, you really need to do so.  There are tons of great educational videos on every subject imaginable.

Have a Great Weekend!
