  • Testing New Segments. We are the Educators: Ep 66

    This week, a few changes happened. First of all, the aging computer that supports this content updated, and the video editor vanquished. The new one did not support previous elements, so forgive us for this week!  Mr. Ritchie stopped by the studio to test out 2 new segments: Maine News Headlines and React to a Picture.   As usual, leave a comment if you agree or not, and like and subscribe if you want to hear more.  Thank you!
