I am starting to focus in to think about what I want to do with my classes during the first week of school. For Calculus, I think the choice is obvious.

misscalcul8: Remind App
http://misscalculate.blogspot.com/2015/08/remind-app.html
I LOVE the Remind App. And I use it often. I know we've talked about it on Twitter some but it seems like more of my blog readers are not my Twitter friends. I wanted to share how I use it in case someone hasn't heard of it yet. Students just need to text a code to a number (don't need a smartphone or the app). Students cannot reply to me. Students don't see my number and I don't see theirs. No messages can ever be deleted. Every message is saved to your message history. You can have multiple classes.
