Lots of Articles

I keep a running list of articles that I think would be good to share with students and parents in a word document.  I have been trying to post some of the articles with various blogs and it has been successful in getting me from 11 pages down to 8 pages of articles, but the reality is that all of these articles have interesting topics and helpful tips and they aren't doing you any good if they are just saved on my computer.  So, its the weekend and perhaps you are looking for an educational diversion or maybe you will want to save this post to look at on your independent learning days to scroll through the list and see which ones might resonate with you... but here is a long list of articles on a wide range of topics.  Happy reading!
