Office make-over

I have been in this office for going on 6 years and ready for a change!  I am hoping to brighten it up and purge!  My first item to spruce up is my file drawers. I haven't been using these much this year because I was so tired of the black look. So I decided to get out my handy dandy decopauge and make jazz them up. Lucky for me, I am a scrapbooker and have a secret obsession with decopauge, so this ended up costing umm...NOTHING!  Yay!!!  These are going to be great for organizing my "To Do" piles and hopefully keep things looking more cheery!

Ga Ga over Google!

I knew that Google was amazing, but this year, I am learning even more amazing things that Google can do, and how to incorporate into my Counseling Program.  For starters, I have upgraded my School Counselor Request form and learned how to make it two or three forms in one.  I plan on doing a screencastify tutorial very soon!  This has been a game changer.  Now, students, teachers, and parents need only find one link in order to communicate their needs to me.  Next on my Google adventures is how I've been able to use Google Sites to develop Leadership Notebooks for all students in Grades 3-5.  Students are loving being able to add their data into this digital notebook, and I am certain this will be big selling point for parents when Student Led Conferences begin next month.  I helped all the students set up their site in Guidance this week, and they have each shared them with me.  This is allowing me to see right away how they are doing in their ...
