First, there is Laura's understanding of how kids learn technology. Before they start this project, she exposes them to Google Docs and lets them explore the program. It didn't take long for the kids to of course find the chat feature in Google Docs. For some teachers, this would have been a reason to stop using Google Docs, for others like Laura, it was a teaching opportunity and a chance to use it for learning. A quick call to the carpet, the class talked about the chat. Why did Google put it there? How would you use it? What would you say? And off they go again exploring the program.

Here's a list of individual student bloggers, grades 6-8. Their posts are about digital citizenship & science. I'm sure they would love students to comment on their blogs.

If you are into science, and grades 3-6th, this is a place to allow your students to comment to other students. Always review safety and netiquette first, then model making some class comments before having them work on comments as partners.
