This is a great app to use to put a small amount of information on the screen quickly. Like a web address or simple instructions. It lays over the top of what is already on your screen so that students could see what it would look like when they get to the address. 

 

Slam Session: Sessions Buddy

Sessions Buddy is a great Chrome extension that allows you to save a set of webpages so that they can be opened at a later date. 

For me this is helpful around MAP testing time. There are always four tabs that I have open during the MAP testing. Sessions buddy allows me to save those four tabs as a “session” and then open them all at once with two or three clicks. 

I also use this for my four pinned tabs. I have four tabs that are open all of the time, which I have pinned, but if I close Chrome incorrectly, they won’t pop back up. With Sessions Buddy I am able to quickly reopen the session with those four tabs any time.
