Tip Sheet #4 Vol. II - October 4, 2022 |
You will notice that our Tip Sheets are going through a makeover! It may take us a week or two to get into the new groove, but we're committed to providing you with a resource that everyone can benefit from.
Each week, in addition to our usual tech tips and product updates, we'll endeavor to provide shared activities for Elementary, Middle, and High School students. We'll need your help, so we've implemented a new section: Teacher Spotlight. Here we'll introduce you to an amazing TeacherMader each week-- and if they have a side hustle on TpT or Etsy, there'll be links for you to follow!
If you're interested in being in the Spotlight or just want to share some of your activities, please click here or email us at [email protected]

Teacher Spotlight: Paige Posey Cumberland, Secondary Science
Joined TeacherMade: September 2020
Greetings. My name is Paige Posey Cumberland. I am a professional educator from Central Mississippi where I reside with my husband (who is also an educator and coach) and our newborn daughter.
For over ten years, I have had the pleasure to share my knowledge of the world through teaching high school sciences.
After graduating with a Bachelor of Science in Biological Sciences, I began searching for a career that I could be passionate about. Growing up the daughter of educators, the love for learning and sharing knowledge with those around me was instilled from an early age; so I dabbled with the idea of following in my parents' footsteps and, luckily, fell in love with being a teacher! My favorite moments in education come from watching my students' eyes light up when they make connections to the world around them and everything finally just “clicks”!
I'm a long-time TeacherMader and have just about 400 activities for Chemistry, Physics, and even Earth Science. It's hard to know exactly where you are with your students, so I've shared two of my Chemistry activities that should fit into every classroom at some point.
If you want to see more of my work, I do have a TpT store, Smarty Pants Secondary Science, where I hope to post TeacherMade activities soon. While we teachers welcome any extra income, I mostly enjoy designing curriculum materials and sharing my passion for the sciences with educators around the world!

This Week's Tuesday Tech Tip:
Students Don't Need a TeacherMade Account!!
It's true... TeacherMade has a different "architecture" than most of the ed tech you use. We get that. Once you understand how we're different, you'll realize that in this age of data privacy concerns, TeacherMade is one less thing to worry about.
Kate, our Customer Success manager, has made this video to show us how students are assigned TeacherMades and how they access the activities.
Update Surprise! Where did the Sharing button go??
This past week, veteran TeacherMaders may have been caught by surprise when "Sharing" was no longer on the left of the Worksheet Detail screen. Don't worry! You can still share a worksheet from the My Worksheets screen where all of your activities are listed. Find the three dots to the right of the activity you want to share and click to reveal a pop-up menu where Sharing is now located. (We're hoping this new location will be more intuitive for users and prevent the misconception that Sharing how students get access.)
See how to turn on ‘Sharing’ by reading our post here:
