So, the elevator speech here if you have just joined in:
Knowsaic shares observations and curates content to help families raise lifelong learners and develop healthy information and digital literacy habits. Idea here is to save you screen time and offer up my Librarian/Mom approved, researched food for thought take-aways. Grazing instead of 4 course meal. Bit by bit.

Bookmark the post in case you start hearing about any of these and want to understand what you are dealing with, or ask the teachers in your students’ world about tools they are using so you can try them out for yourself or post and discuss here. Good format for skimming and comparison, and to use as a reminder that as we get back to the classroom routines here at home, we’ll be ready to learn too!
