Adopt a Bug is a Big Hit!
Yesterday, the Second Grade class did a Microsoft Word project called "Adopt a Bug". They had to use Google's images browser to find images of insects and then paste them into a Word document, give them a name and then tell me about their bugs. The kids got rather creative with the project. Some of the students found bugs that were "steam - punk" versions, like the one in the picture above, and other's found zombie bugs, ghost bugs, clown bugs, etc...They were far more creative than I would have imagined and as usual they were very enthusiastic about the project.
I am amazed at how fast they have learned how to:
- Turn on a monitor and actually find the button, because all of the monitors are different and the buttons are sometimes hidden.
- Log in
- Open a Word document
- Look for images on Google
- Copy Images from the Net
- Paste into Word
- Type and use Word Art functions
So far, we are really having a blast!!! More cool things and fun to come (as well as some learnin')!
