Hello Everyone,
I haven't posted for awhile so I figured I better record what has been going on with the Netbooks in my elementary age classes. The kids absolutely love the Netbooks and are becoming more confident with their computer usage. They have all made All About Me power point presentations that incorporated Flip Cam footage. My second graders are working on mysteries and using sources like readwritethink to aid them with online graphic organizers. My third graders have been using Google Earth to calculate the mileage and days it took the Ingall's family to travel pioneer journeys since we have been reading Little House on the Prairie. My fourth and fifth grade students are working on group webquest activities (one for Where the Red Fern Grows/Great Depression and one for the Civil War). We also enjoyed a visit from Vickie Mohnacky last Friday. She even helped the students create their own portaportals. The Netbooks really have been a blessing and my students have been learning a great deal.
