Go Ask Siri to Divide 0 by 0. I Dare You.
The best laugh of today came from asking my iPhone's Siri what zero divided by zero is. I won't spoil it with her response. It's something you will have to give a try. She would make quite the math teacher.

A Whole Lot of Outdoor Learning Coming to Saugatuck
Here are my Saugatuck Rock Star sessions and 2/3 of them will be led outdoors. Day 1 is all about tricking out Apple's Keynote, but Days 2 and 3 are about taking advantage of learning in one of Michigan's coolest little town.
Day 1: If you can't build it in Keynote, you don't need it.
The antidote to torturous presentations lies in Apple’s Keynote. Now free and online to anyone with a web browser, Keynote can make presentation slides, but excels when you let your creativity run wild. It is the ultimate app smasher because what you build in Keynote can enhance just about any creative project. Build infographics, animate, create high-end layered videos, and blow stuff up in this, “Hey, howdya do that?” kind of session.
Day 2: On Top of Mt. Baldy All Covered in STEAM
Bring your athletic shoes and sense of adventure as we head down the hill and across the river to the 302 steps of Mount Baldhead. Along the way we will stop to play some Project Wild games, use the sensors built into your smart phones, and explore a fragile dune ecosystem.
Day 3: Shooting Around Town
Discover practical ways to build high end photography and video skills in you and your students as we explore the target rich environment of the Saugatuck area. Within two hours you will learn simple to lead activities and editing techniques that will boost your confidence and creative abilities.
Check out the rest of the offerings at the camp sessions page.
