Pay It Forward Day Is April 26 - What Can You Do?

TeachAde Store Has Materials to Help Prevent Bullying
|
Isn't it safer to be informed versus the alternative? According to national statistics, bullying has become an epidemic that is quickly turning deadly among our children. 
TeachAde quickly realized this and has included new books and resources in our store to help professionals. Take a moment and check out these new books. Keep in mind the TeachAde Store accepts purchase orders from schools as well as most major credit cards. Shipping is free on orders of $25 or more.

Have You Used EduApps?
|
 A group of schools in Scotland, supported by Learning and Teaching, recently evaluated EduApps through a series of case studies to support learners with additional needs. Most of the schools chose to use MyStudyBar, which is designed to support learners with literacy-related difficulties such as dyslexia. For more information, check out TeachAde's resource called EduApps.
