    Wanted you to know... I’m 61, and this is my retirement year. The technology world has been very frustrating and confusing. If it hadn’t been for your TH-cam videos, I don’t know what I would’ve done. Bless you!

      I taught for 34 years and retired in 2019. I feel for all of you that are still teaching. I would still be there if I had not been getting sick. I had gotten sick 6 times in the period of 12 months. I was teaching in a much older building that had gotten flooded the previous year. I did not know about that until I thought to ask a custodian. I was shooting for 4-5 more years but, I had to go. A teacher cannot be sick that often. Thankfully, my immune system was able to build back up before the pandemic. Michelle's videos are fantastic. I have been getting ideas from them so I can start my own tutoring business. I have been tutoring for a company that teaches English to students overseas. I really do enjoy it but, with so many of our schools having to go back to virtual education I thought it would be better to help out here, in the US. I have seen the cost of many tutors and there are so expensive. I know that many kids would need it but, I cannot think of many parents who would pay $40. an hour. I just found this video site about 3 days ago and it has been terrific.

    You can also save a desktop icon for each Google Account instead of logging out & back in. For instance, on my home desktop, I have my personal Chrome icon, my school Chrome icon, my daughter’s school icon, and our business icon. That way, you just click the desktop icon for the account you need. You can also have more than one open at a time and can toggle back and forth.

    My Sunday morning routine is to watch your new video while I eat breakfast! I saw a video this week with a Jamboard hack to lock the screen. This person put a textbox over the jamboard and stretched it out beyond the lines of the jamboard. Then they put a second textbox over it. Once they had done that, the images were no longer moveable. Might be something to try out until Google solves this problem. Hope you had a great honeymoon!

    Hi there! I am a Science teacher from India and watching your videos since when I had to switch to Online mode of teaching. I am very thankful to you for all your videos. Your videos are not only having good information but good energy and enthusiasm tooo... That's what I love to watch. It has really helped me to improve my Online teaching, keeping records (which was really tough job for me 😀), making good, interesting things for Students. I get inspired and motivated to do more for my students. Thank you sooo...much

    You inspire me! I am an avid organizer and train my students to be but after watching you I see that I have a long way to go. If I can do half of what you are doing I'll be golden. You are doing a fantastic job. Stay encouraged and keep the faith. The students love you. Try to remember many are struggling with their inner pain and circumstances. It is not necessarily reflection of you or your teaching. You're a sweetheart. Keep praying. (I sent this comment today to a previous video that you did some years ago. I sent it here to a more current video to make sure that you saw my comment)

When I was growing up, we didn’t have manipulatives to help us with math.

    I love google chrome too! There are 2 extensions that I love as well.
    1. Mindful browsing. You put in sites that distract you like amazon, TH-cam, etc. Then when you go to those sites it says “are you sure you want to use this site?” It also reminds you every 10 minutes, without completely blocking the site.
    2 Ecosia. It’s a search engine that works like google or bing, but every 45 searches it plants a tree in an area that needs it most.

I shared it with my school after you mentioned last time.

    Hi Michelle, thank you for the video.
    There's a program that I've been using for years, which I think you will really like. If you like google keep then you should try Microsoft OneNote. It works way better than Google Keep for making notes.
    You can make notes organize them into notebooks, sections, pages. You can edit text like you would in a typical document editor.
    You can also make sections protected by a password for any sensitive information.
    It works on your browser, you can download it for Windows, Mac, iPhone, Android.
    I definitely recommend it for your notes.

    CLASS KICK is super awesome as well! it can serve as a virtual worksheet. It grades it. The students can work out problems, you see what they are doing LIVE. You can also provide LIVE feedback by typing or drawing. Students can also use the "raise hand" feature and you can help them or designate student helpers
