Snipping Tool, VPN, and Online stories and podcasts

1.  Snipping Tool- 

 The snipping tool has been a user favorite in the past 6 months!  Once you use this tool, you'll never remember what you did without it.  To snip/cut a part of your screen, simply select the Window button in the bottom left, and choose Snipping Tool.  Then hit create new and use your mouse to snip around what you need.  This is especially helpful for screenshots, tutorials, making presentations, and so much more!

2.  VPN directions

Here are the reminders for logging into the Pennridge Network from home.  There are many reasons why you may want to do this.  Please note:  It is also imperative that you are on the Pennridge Network for signing into OTS.

3.  K-8 Online Stories and Podcasts 

Many teachers have been using Storylineonline.net (they just added some new books),  EPIC! books, or similar sites for online libraries, but I wanted you to also know about this wonderful site for listening to online stories, podcasts, and more!  Please take a moment to look at Kid Lit TV.
