Time and time again, we're reminded of nature's beauty. It's hard to believe, but these photos of real landscapes, not abstract paintings.
Andre Ermolaev, through his photography has captured the beauty of Iceland's geomorphology. Being on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, Iceland has abundant volcanic ash which adds rich color to the fluvial systems.

A great introduction to Lucidchart, a robust online graphic organizer that is free for educators (and their students) and allows students to collaborate on projects. A few of the ideas suggested in the post are below:
* Use Lucidchart as an alternative to Think, Pair, Share
* Brainstorm with mindmaps (and have students collaborate, having each choose a different color if you want to follow them individually)
* Real time feedback on assignments
Remember, this is a free tool and the post provides great directions on how to set up your account and request it be upgraded to educational!
I look forward to using this tool in my classroom.
