Today while working on our Google Apps (Gmail), the students discovered (Kristalyn to be specific) that they could have a group chat. So using our Google Chromebooks we had a giant group chat. This then turned into a vocabulary review. I joined in the discussion and began asking them questions. What a great impromptu learning opportunity! I have never seen a group of students so motivated to work. I’m still buzzing with the excitement that was generated. It’s days like this that make teaching the best profession!
