Play Halloween Jeopardy in your classroom! Pre-made games on Factile provide team management, buzzers, and score keeping. 👍 Read about it in Issue 46 of Learning in Hand: learninginhand.com/issue46

@talouis Thanks Tricia! I have a few others I can use but was hoping to stick with what we were using.

@rlangenhorst I might have another option for you for a collection & sharing - grab a time with me using my calendly link on my contact page and we can google meetup and I can share!

Wakelet is trimming back its free features to stay sustainable and ad-free. Free accounts will be limited to 3 editable collections and 50 items per collection. All other collections you might have will become read only. Unlimited plans are $90/year.

@DesireeHinsch @KristinaMcSwee6 @erika_schmyth @CatalystSB_ @CatalystLab_ Yeah, Des!!!!! This is AWESOME!! Go Jacks! It will be amazing to have you and your fam around again! 💙💛

If you’ve played classroom buzz-in games, you know one team can dominate. Factile’s new Buzz-In Sequence Randomizer lets teachers shuffle the order of who buzzed in, giving every student a fair chance to shine. playfactile.com #Sponsored #EdTech #Teaching
