Colorful & Spooky
Kids love to color! Well, okay, so do adults at times! Sometimes, pulling out a coloring sheet is one of the easiest arts and crafts activities to do when kids are getting restless.
Around the holidays, it's always fun to have kids help decorate in their own special way. Having them color a simple page of scenes for the season, is always fun!
I am including links below to both printable and interactive Halloween coloring pages! Have fun!

QR Code Fun!
I have never personally used QR Codes in a classroom setting but I do find that concept very interesting! I think that with as popular as QR Codes are in today's world, incorporating them into an educational setting just makes sense.
Now, in order for any QR activity to work, you would need enough QR readers available for student use. This could prove to be a challenge since sometimes that technology is not available. Also, most likely younger students wouldn't necessarily have SmartPhones on them as frequently as older students would.
Still, there are so many fun ways to utilize this technology. To find QR reader apps for SmartPhones, you can try one of the following sites:
To create your own QR codes, try one of the following sites below:
Once you've explored these sites, feel free to create your own fun! If you'd like to try out an activity using QR codes, before you begin creating your own, try out these FREE Resources listed below! Enjoy!

Online Halloween FUN!
When I taught Elementary Computers, I always tried to allow my students some fun times in the lab around each holiday. I also gave them options so that if they did not celebrate certain holidays, then they could still have fun with their classmates! They loved it!
There are so many fun games online for Halloween that are appropriate for kids and students of all ages. I am including links to many below! If you know of others, feel free to share those as well! Enjoy!

Ed Tech on the Wall
This year I have been trying to come up with new and creative Ed Tech bulletin boards, wall displays, or door decorations. My bulletin board outside my computer lab this year looks like a giant Facebook page. I display the students' computer lab creations on there.
At Halloween, I created fun "Going Batty over the Web" display for my door. On the bats and spiders I put names of fun and popular websites that the students like to use.
For after the Winter Break, I am thinking of doing something Valentine's Day themed. My hope is to get the teachers in our building to decorate a heart and put either a technology tip, tech goal, or favorite website on it, along with their name. This way, the students can see how all teachers in the building use technology often and in the real world. What would a good title for this display be??
I would love ideas for a title! Please help me out? In the meantime, here are some more links with ideas for bulletin boards regarding computers and ed tech. Enjoy!
