The students will be working together within this App to
work on one aspect of a topic. The teacher will show
how to get to the App and explain how it works. The
students then can form groups within the App. This App
allows students to interact with each other and it will
help improve working with others and can improve their
beginning collaborative App skills for later more mature
use. The teachers will explain different ways the groups
can work together to practice focusing on one aspect of
a topic. The students will practice writing sentences
focusing around one topic and they can make it fun by
typing in errors, drawing in errors in each other
sentences. It is a good way to practice and have fun.
They will create a story together about a topic and then
the groups will present to each other on their topic and
tell about their topic and how they went about writing
their story.
