Thing Eighteen

At first I was a little skeptical about Google Docs... DO I really need to sign up for another program when MSWord does the same thing??? Then I started thinking about the last day of school when I couldn't get the laptops from the lab and my students needed to type their stories. I sent the students to different classrooms and the library - the problem was all their stories were saved on different computers.! If I had only known about Google Docs....
Also, I have a writing group that meets once a month and we will be using Google Docs to share writing to edit and make comments on in between meetings. Now, I think it is a great idea. I am also going to suggest it to our PYP coordinator to use when we update planners. Instead of opening and saving to your desktop just look on Google Docs. How easy is that??
