I came across this in one of my education news feeds and got excited to explore the possibilities of integrating more technology in my classroom and with my FEFE lessons. I haven't had time to explore them all but the ones I have looked at are certainly intriguing!

Hi guys, Some of my classes just started the Language of the stock market and I am wondering if anyone has any really fun or cool ways they make the lesson super "unforgettable" for the kiddos. Currently I am planning to use www.weseed.com. If you have any tips or ideas I would appreciate them
