The teacher's activity was to study the Calendar. He wanted the children to Google a calendar... Primary 4 is a large class, so we spent some time making sure that everybody had the calendar, then inserting it into Abiword, answering the questions, and finally making sure they could save the file... To finish faster, I helped upload the photos onto the XOs, all along thinking how wonderful it would be if the Mesh were working. --Carla Gomez Monroy, Learning Consultant, OLPC
