Reposted by Jeff HennigarHomeRoom @ourhomeroom.app · 19/08/2026I wanted a way for substitute teachers to use the exact same digital tools my class expects every day. I built Guest Teacher mode to keep our routines intact, even when I'm home sick. #HomeRoom #OurHomeRoom #edusky 012
Reposted by Jeff HennigarHomeRoom @ourhomeroom.app · 23/08/2026I built HomeRoom to solve the exact problems I was having with other digital planners. It shows my whole day at a glance, counts down the minutes left in our current subject, and even displays our learning targets on the dashboard. It takes the entire mental load out of pacing the day. #HomeRoom 001
