Last Day!
My final takeaway is to not fear checking out new multimedia tools! I benefitted so much from the exposure to so many different types of media and know they will translate into some great teaching methods for the upcoming school year. Look out kids. Here comes the fun!

I need to remember to review and explore more with Wakelet for Educators, Online Audio Editors, Seesaw, ABCyaAnimate, Flipgrid, ThingLink, Nearpod, Screencastify and more, and look through the public library resources (update your library card). And add Google extensions!
I must go on and explore PearDeck and Blooket, and not be afraid to create a teaching folder in YouTube to make videos, just like Amy. I actually have a private channel where I read bilingual stories to my nieces and nephews who live in PA and AZ. Time to make one for my students.

Amy - 
You have been an excellent teacher. It is really hard to do a class remotely from the teacher's side and not always easy for the students. You rose to the occasion! You were quick getting back to the group or individually. And I really appreciated the fast turn around on grades so I knew if I had completed something and if I had done a good job.

At times, I did feel overwhelmed with the amount of work for some days, but most days it was a good amount of material and very easy to work through. I will say that it took me 2-3 hours some days, while other days it took up to 8 hours (due to taking breathing and eating breaks). I can become overwhelmed, but walking away and coming back to things gets my brain recharged and ready to go.

All in all, a really fun course. Do NOT loose your enthusiasm during your videotapes. They were not over the top. And, I love the videomumble, because I am SO guilty of that. It shows you are human and relatable.
Thank you for a wonderful class! 
Have a wonderful rest of your summer. :)
