Posted by [Lori Blantz](https://info.iu13.org/ecses-tech/author/lori-blantz) on Nov 27, 2018 7:15:00 AM - [Tweet](https://twitter.com/share) I want to share with you a way to try out neat things in your room or during your itinerant time to determine if they are appropriate for your students before purchasing them or even trying to win them via my monthly essays contests. I have created Google Forms to sign out a Google Expedition Kit, BreakoutEDU boxes, Bee Bots and Mat, Mini Spheros, and Ozobots. If you are interested in using these in your room and would like to sign them out please complete the respected form below. If you need assistance using them, please connect with Lori Blantz or Hillary Holler first to determine a time to teach you how to use or do a lesson for you first. Click on the names below of the item you would like to sign out to access the form. [Google Expedition Kit](https://goo.gl/forms/jC1MtrOHyLFVxiVI2), [BreakoutEDU boxes](https://goo.gl/forms/u2iiYB64x6YEvZRg2), [Bee Bots and Mat](https://goo.gl/forms/KktPGSG2EqDefwVs2), [Spheros and Mini Spheros,](https://goo.gl/forms/QtzAgN2p80xrkF5u1) and [Ozobots](https://goo.gl/forms/IxWSNJrfT3OL5YRQ2).

This month I am giving away the new OSMO iPad case and base that was just released a bit ago. Some of our IU13 staff had the opportunity to try it out and share their thoughts that I sent to the company. The OSMO company allowed me to keep these, and are taking their thoughts into consideration. I am now offering one away for free with this months essay. Typically your iPad just sets in the base unprotected, now there is a case that can be used while you are using their new base to mount the iPad. If you are interested in winning this for your classroom here are the rules: **Write a 100 word or less essay on how you would use this instructional tool with students and email to [lori_blantz@iu13.org](mailto:lori_blantz@iu13.org) by December 12th.
