 * If your computers //are// all networked, use a networked folder from the server and store their documents on the server. In this way, students can use whatever computer is currently open.
 * Try to keep the groups with mixed abilities. This way students can help each other in the group.

Computer Labs
As a computer teacher, I work very hard to make my classroom an educational environment that teaches computer skills to my students. I collaborate with the classroom teachers and create worthwhile projects that tie in with what the students are working on in class. My clss time is used to give students the tools they need to succeeed in the 21st Century.

Elementary Tech Teachers is a great ning for elementary teachers to share their ideas.
