"I love this idea! Our school is always stressing ways to lessen the use of paper. Use less copies, use less copies, use less copies.... This would be great! So, do you have the students using a word processing document,…"

I would like some ideas on ways to use technology in my upper elementary classroom.
Does anyone have some "user friendly" things that I can do with my 5th grade class in the technology realm?

I forgot to mention that joining edWeb.net is FREE! It is an awesome resource for educators. See you there!

Hi Michelle!
Thank you for your kind words! I am at a 6th, 7th, & 8th Grade Middle School, and my "Rationales" work great with this level....I don't think it would be too much of a stretch for them to work with your 5th Graders. If you like my four "sample" Rationales, let me know and I can send you my book of 100 rationales at a discounted price of $20.
If you would like more free stuff, join my group on edWeb.net. Even though it is called "New Teacher Help", I have noticed that many experienced teachers like yourself (and administrators too) are joining. I put on free webinars, have free resources posted in my "Documents" section, and just generally distribute free info. on any topic. You can join at this address http://www.edweb.net/newteacherhelp
If you can get ten of your colleagues to join my group, I will send you my book of 100 rationales for free! Talk to you later!
