Thing 6 was a little tricky to do at work. We don't have webcams at work and only a handful of students have email addresses to be able to send them invites to be able to join things so it made things a little difficult. I ended up working with colleague using Google Hangouts. We discussed topics, articles, and ideas that I could use for typing lessons for my students. Again, everyone who has done any of the online programs/websites really enjoy that they don't have to physically meet up anywhere, that they can just stay in their rooms on their own computer. I was able to get some good material to use in their typing lessons to make it more meaningful for them as they type. Hopefully typing and reading the text will help reinforce the things they are learning in their core classes!

I am so glad to see that you and your co-teachers were able to "hang out". Google has so many amazing features. I really like that Google Hang Out automatically updates my calendar with the Hang Out event.
