Inspiring creativity and sustainability
In Brazil, Adriana Chagas, GEG Natal Leader, developed a project of sustainability with her 6th-grade students using STEAM. They created a “Reading House” with used plastic bins; on the rear side, there is a secret entrance made from an old refrigerator customized by students. There is also a rainwater harvesting system. Congratulations to Adriana and all the young students for the creative ideas on this inspiring initiative!
Lakes Entrance/Bairnsdale GEG - First Meeting

Google Assistant My Storytime
Jennifer Oliver, an educator, and military spouse helped designers of Google Nest develop an inspiring new product called My Storytime. Now, no matter where you are, you can visit MyStorytime.com to create a private account for your family and begin building your library of recorded stories. And once shared with the parent back home, all they have to say is “Hey Google, talk to My Storytime” to hear your personal stories. This is so inspirational and will enhance the lives of many children.
My Storytime might also be used in schools that have Google Home Minis. It might also be a great feature to add to one of your GEG meetings, to make your members aware of it - or even demo the service if you have access to a Home Mini!
