TIPS AND TRICKS
Here are a few ideas that might be helpful for you when setting your default startup tabs in Google Chrome!
UPDATE THE TABS THROUGHOUT THE YEAR
If you use specific slideshows or websites for different units you teach, you can change your default startup tabs throughout the year to match the pages you're currently using!
For example, you can remove the tab for the Google Slides file "Measurement Conversions" (click the 3 dots next to the tab name and click "Remove") and replace it with the new slides you will use to teach the next unit (click "Add a new page" and paste the URL).
You could also consider changing your default startup tabs monthly or quarterly if that better fits your teaching needs!
