The Most Popular Posts in October

Good evening from Maine where the sun has set on the month of  October. Some of the colorful leaves of autumn are still clinging to the trees, but more are on the ground than in the trees now. Hopefully, I'll get them cleaned up before the snow flies (that could be any day now). But I do have some other projects and fun things planned for the last two months of the year. I hope that you do as well. 

As I do at the end of every month, I've compiled a list of the most popular posts of the month. Take a look and see if there's something interesting that you missed earlier in the month. These were the most popular posts in October: 

1. The Science of Cake! - And 83 Other Food Science Lessons
2. Two New Google Docs Features to Note
3. Ten Skills Students Can Learn from Google's Applied Digital Skills Lessons
4. Taskade - A Complete Project Planning Solution for Teachers and Students
5. Get Your Free Copy of The Practical Ed Tech Handbook
6. Samsung Solve for Tomorrow - A Great STEM Contest for Students!
7. An Overview of Google Forms Quiz Settings
8. BookWidgets - Create Unique Online Activities for Your Students
