Google Docs

Today I taught the students how to use Google Docs to type their Explorer reports. This is handy because they can work on the report at home and school. The hardest part will be getting used to logging on. User names are the students' first name initial, middle name initial, last name, and number of birth month. (If there's no middle name, just skip that part.)

For example, I would be kestratton09@bsd48.org (karen elizabeth stratton, birth month september)
They received their passwords today, and I can give them directly to you at conferences this week as well.

Reports do not have to be typed. They can be hand written/printed neatly on notebook paper. The reports are due on Tuesday Nov. 12 when we return to school. We will finish the rest of the project in school and be done by Wed. hopefully. Our next unit is Colonies.
