      Another very useful Teacher tool to teach History or even Science by uploading images, later you can tag different parts of the images to link out to further explanations.
  • Applications for Education Tools like Record MP3 are great for posting short reminder messages on your blog for your students to hear.

Then your substitute teacher can hear the directions and your students can too and nothing gets lost in the chain of communication.
