Google Offers a Lot

Girls Day was great. I was glad to have Keyah, Lizzie, Domonek, Diamond and Arica in the clubhouse, today. They were introduced to the peripherals attached to various computers. They learned to use the QX3 Microscope, the Digital Blue Movie Maker, the Intel Create and Share Digital Camera, and the Epson scanner. I demonstrated, after using the camera and the scanner, how to put the file in your folder. They are just learning about navigating to their folder, so I can't wait to see who can copy/move a file to their folder without my help. I, also, set up a gmail account for all, except Arica. They each have an igoogle page. We had a lot of fun deciding what to add. We have only just begun our venture into the offerings of Google. I know we have to pace ourselves, but I can't wait to show them the calendar, chat, books, photos, documents, blogs and more. I know that as our girls day members increase, they will help to teach new members.
