The Students are Going Google

Word is spreading like wildfire! We have Google accounts?! They have Google accounts?! Yes! The newest batch of students to explore their Google accounts were third graders in Mrs. Kuntz's classroom and fourth graders in Mrs. Wilshusen's classroom. Students practice writing to a great extent, so after they learned how to log in, they began learning about their Google Drive and all of its functionalities. They were surprised at how easy it was to get started, that they no longer have to "save" their documents, and how easy it was to share their work with their teacher. We can't wait to see their writing pieces.

Fifth graders in Ms. Johnston's and Mrs. Berry's classrooms also dove in to their Google accounts. In addition to logging in and navigating the new workspace, students began using Google Spreadsheet to create bar graphs. They left for Thanksgiving break ready to collect data!
