"Need a pentagonal pyramid that's six inches tall? Or a number line that goes from ‑18 to 32 by 5's? Or a set of pattern blocks where all shapes have one-inch sides?

Printable version of the "Life on Minimum Wage" game. "The goals of this game are up to you. The first person to reach all of their goals wins (or do they?). In order to reach your goals you must work hard. By working hard and being careful with your money, you can reach your goals. Rules: 1. You must identify your goals before the game begins. Everyone needs at least five goals. 2. Everyone will be randomly assigned to a job that pays minimum wage. 3. In order to earn money you need to complete the requirements on your task card. When you complete those requirements you will be paid. 4. You can work more than one job, but you have to complete all of the requirements of your assigned job first. 5. You can not work any more than 39.9 hours at any one job. 6. You must pay all of your bills including Taxes, Food & Beverages, Rent, Utilities, and "surprise bills" before spending your money on any of your goal items. 7. You cannot steal money. If you steal you will be sent to jail and disqualified from the game."

As funding becomes tighter and schools are looking for ways to save, switching to Google Apps for Education makes sense for many school districts. The decision is one that is often preceded by a lot of questions from school boards and school administrators. To answer some of the more common questions like "are there ads on Google Apps for Education?" and "what about COPPA compliance?" Google has released a PDF addressing those common questions.

"Students at Asher Public School, Asher, Oklahoma, are currently collaborating with students in Illinois, Indiana, and Washington using a global platform that consists of the project Ning, Wiki, and Skype. The Ning is located at: http:dontextandrive.ning.com/. Membership into the Ning is representative of their pledge not to text and drive. The Ning sufficiently addresses current research, data, laws, and even legislation through active blogging and forum discussion exchanges. We are interested in collaborating with schools from within the United States to outside. This is a global issue and deserves global attention. We want to be part of the solution and not part of the problem. Please join us."
