Back to School-Cultivating new values and expectations
In lockdown or out, it cannot be refuted that this year brings with it certain challenges and opportunities. Facilitators have imbibed the strength that came from teaching during an immensely challenging year.

A New Google Forms Feature Teachers Have Requested for Years!
This week Google finally added a feature to Google Forms that teachers and students have requested for years. You can now save your work in progress when answering questions in Google Forms!
Google Forms will now save students’ work in progress when they are completing a quiz or any other Google Form that you give to them through Google Classroom. The only thing that students have to do to have their work saved in progress is make sure that they are signed into their Google accounts. Students’ work will be saved in progress for 30 days from the time that they first open the form.
