Today the SES Technology team met to discuss the following topics for our school:

• APP Updates for the IPAD Cart and Classroom IPADS for primary grade levels.
  
• Kahoot!
  
• TodaysMeet
  
• Keyboarding in the classroom.
  
• A resource area for our colleagues to share our news updates monthly on technology tips, tricks, and topics.
  

A Kahoot is a collection of questions on specific topics. Created by teachers, students, business-people and social users, they are asked in real-time, to an unlimited number of “players”, creating a social, fun and game-like learning environment. You can create your own Kahoot! OR you can search topics or ideas on Kahoot! and find ready made Kahoots by other teachers. Check out the below article for more information and some great ideas!
