Tool 4

I love google doc. It makes life so much easier. As teachers, we can really work as a team more efficiently without sending a document over and over again many times just to come up with a final copy. We can share the same document and everyone can add to it without the necessity of cutting and pasting. Now, we can concentrate on contributing on getting things done at one time rather, than sending emails back and forth and making revisions. The possibilities of using this tool range from working together to prepare materials, roadmaps, etc. to parents presentations for open house, math/Literacy night. etc.

Google reader is also a great time saver tool. It does the search work for you to keep you updated. It allows you to get the latest posted information on particular subject areas, or to keep you in touch with a network of interest.
