3rd Grade Technology CoTeaching: Planning Doc
Third graders tackled the ever exciting world of Google Apps to document how historians ask questions to learn about the past. Using a google document students recorded their observations about their historical artifact from home. They learned how to access documents from Google Classroom, create a google document in Google Drive, aka their Digital Desk, name and share a document, and collaborate on a google document digitally with a small group. See below as one third graders describes our work together.
Please welcome our new lunch/recess EA Shari Hokanson!
