About the "Best of Blue & Gold" Program

Welcome to the Best of Blue & Gold! Each week CFCS staff members will receive a Tech Tuesday email. Complete the weekly Tech Tuesday to earn an entry into the weekly drawings and to earn individual awards. Weekly drawings will take place on Tuesday mornings. Winners will be announced in the Tech Tuesday email.

The Best of Blue & Gold kicks off in November and runs through the end of April.

November 21st - Padlet Polls - Would You Rather...

It's time for the November Copley Cup of Coffee (CCC) activity! Each month there will be a special Tech Tuesday task to complete for a chance to win an insulated Copley Coffee Cup and a coffee gift card. This task is open to ALL staff members


This month's CCC activity focuses on using polls in Padlet. Padlet Polls are a great way to collect feedback and spark curiosity, so let's practice and have a little fun. To be entered in the drawing, head over to the November CCC Padlet and add a poll (note - you must be signed in to cfcs.padlet.org to add your poll). Create a new post and use the poll option to create a "Would You Rather" question about fall or Thanksgiving. Your poll can be serious or silly...as long as it is appropriate for school!


For step-by-step directions, check out the Week 3 BBG Tech Tuesday doc.


You have two weeks to participate. All polls must be added to the Padlet by the end of the day on Monday, December 4th.
