Tech Tips for Teachers is a blog by Steve Quann and Leah Peterson of World Education for the LINCS Region 1 Professional Development Center. Our goal with this blog is to provide a resource to adult education teachers and tutors who are interested in integrated technology into their instruction, but are not sure where to start. We hope that our blog offers some practical ideas as well as some inspiration to try something new. We are kicking off our new blog with a month of tech tips that can be used to support reading. Each month we will select a different theme. Leave us a note in the comments if you have a requested theme!

Dear Leah and Steve,
Hope you will share MakeBeliefsComix.com with your constituency as a useful, free educational resource to encourage literacy and language acquisition. At this comic strip generator, visitors will find 128 characters with different emotions to choose among for their comic strips, blank talk and thought balloons to be filled in with text, story prompts and hundreds of printables that encourage writing and reading. There are also features showing educators how to apply the site in the classroom as well as lesson plans.
Please take a look and share.
With thanks,
Bill Zimmerman
Creator, MakeBeliefsComix.com and www.billztreasurechest.com

Thank you for the tip, Bill. I'm familiar with your site and have recommended it before - lots of fun! Next month we'll be featuring resources related to writing, so it may fit in nicely there.
Best,
Leah

Hi Leah and Steve,
Great content so far! If either of you would be interested in writing a guest blog entry for the Florida Literacy Coalition's blog, please email me. I'd love to have one of you write an entry similar to the ones you've posted. You could also provide a link to get more traffic to your blog in the entry on ours as a new resource for literacy practitioners.

Thanks,
John

Thank you John, we'd love to. Let me touch base with Steve, and we'll be in touch.
Best,
Leah
