Class #7

Well the best part of the text box/ highlight feature in regards to notetaking is that it makes it easy and for some kids who are intimidated about writing or losing papers it would work great.
Bubbl.us worked well when I was on there but bugs should be worked out before introducing to whole class of kiddos.

Calculator in search bar...lifesaver for the math impaired (me).

Using technology with kids who are disorganized and scattered makes lots of sense, as at least their work is in one place. Kids like the text boxes and colored highlighting.
Who knew that the google search box functioned as a calculator? There are so many neat tools on the google home page that we are thinking of spending some class time on them, if there is time.

Connie,
In kidspeak- a whole class on the neat tools we never knew were there would be COOL.

I wish the 6th graders had everyday access to computers/laptops- I'd love to have a classroom in the computer lab! They'd know so much more!
