</div>
<div align="justify">
<em>"As I was searching my favorite blogs for back to school ideas, I came across noteCounselor. I have explored many different ways to keep my notes that is both convenient and easily accessible. noteCounselor has it all! All of my notes are in one place that can be accessed from anywhere! I have a link on my computer as well as my iPad so I can access my notes wherever I am. Amanda Lea Chambers developed this secure note taking device especially for school counselors. </em></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<em></em> </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<em>Another feature that I like about noteCounselor is that it keeps track of the amount of hours I spent on all the facets of my job. It is actually very rewarding to look at how much I do (and we just finished the 2nd week of school)!"</em></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<strong>This data and note keeping tool can be bought with the yearly money you receive each year from your school... I've already checked in to it and was given the "thumbs up". Therefore, this is something I plan to use with my money when we get it in October! :-) It's only $49.00 for a subscription.</strong></div>

HOW DO I CREATE A QR CODE?</h2>
<div align="justify" class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
You can create a QR Code by clicking this <a href="http://www.the-qrcode-generator.com/"><span style="color: yellow;">link.</span> </a> This site allows you to generate codes for websites, important phone numbers, contact information, or you can even generate a code that will send a free text. Pretty cool, huh?!? There is an option for you to "Save" your QR Codes so that you can upload them later when you are ready to print them for display. </div>

<h2 align="justify" class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
VOICE ACTIVATED QR CODE! SAY, "WHAT?!?!"</h2>
<div align="justify" class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
That's right... You can even create a QR Code that speaks! How awesome is that?!? If you'd like to try it out, go to this <a href="http://qrvoice.net/"><span style="color: yellow;">link.</span> </a>You simply type in what you want the code to say and it generates a code for you. If you have a QR reader app. on your phone/iPad, try it out by listening to this code! ;-) <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJGAQrvfaeEh9wxI1clTpR11_ixUwvX0LSjucMk3ww_pPUBjfANJbg0ZfMsDWoZbXlV49a9cqbscJjKhOcqY1xQOZysMJrsHtKYvJ9xIKW1Rjjv_hdj7N0SeH1qQzAn1k0SBy_eojhObw/s1600/QR+Code+for+Counselors.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJGAQrvfaeEh9wxI1clTpR11_ixUwvX0LSjucMk3ww_pPUBjfANJbg0ZfMsDWoZbXlV49a9cqbscJjKhOcqY1xQOZysMJrsHtKYvJ9xIKW1Rjjv_hdj7N0SeH1qQzAn1k0SBy_eojhObw/s320/QR+Code+for+Counselors.png" width="320" /></a></div>

<strong>The next form is one that I created for when I meet with a student for the first time. It helps breaks the ice and gives me the opportunity to get to know the child/student a little better before we start talking about whatever issue they are having at home or at school. Under the "Summary" heading, there are five pictures. Each picture stands for a different topic. The house represents who lives in their home. This tells me a lot about the child's family dynamics and home life. The hands symbol represents the child's friends at school and at home. This lets me know who they are "hanging out with", what influences (positive or negative) they may be receiving from others, etc. The smiley face stands for the thing(s) they like about school and the sad face stands for their least favorite thing(s) about school. Finally, the person on the bike represents the things they like to do when they are not at school. For example; fishing, going to the beach, riding their bike, etc.</strong> <br />
