Google Chromebooks in ACTION!

Today I visited another classroom in the school in which I am  student teaching. I observed a fifth grade class and a technology lesson! The fifth grade at this school shares chrome books within the grade and this was a very interesting lesson to see. First of all, it was amazing to see these students using GoogleDocs and making multiple tabs in their browser-they were already more advanced than many of us who saw the introduction of the internet! These students are learning important skills that they will utilize for the rest of their education and beyond.

The students were doing a math activity and were putting their information into a table already set up for them by their teacher. The students were being asked to find the cost of giving all of the gifts as presented in “The 12 Days of Christmas” christmas song. https://www.pncchristmaspriceindex.com Has calculated the cost of each item and the students were multiplying the cost by how many days that item was given. Students were also keeping a running total after finding the cost of each item. It was a very fun project and it was really great to see technology in the classroom!
