Oh! Today was fantastic! Going on Sarah's advice, I used the projector first to show my students all the steps. I then handed out the instruction sheet for help just in case they needed it. I have 24 kids in my class, so I have to try and keep things as calm as possible. After answering all 5,000 questions the kids had, we ventured to the computer lab. I was surprised at their technology skills! Of course they had issues with the "@" symbol and other minor things, but once they got going, they did extremely well!
They BEGGED me to take them back tomorrow so they could do it some more. They asked me if it was possible for them to email from home. When I told them yes, they went crazy.
When I got home around 5, I checked the activity in my Gaggle account, and 5 kids had already emailed someone from home. I was psyched! I can't wait to see who else does.
I also enjoy spying on their little conversations . :)
I LOVE IT!
