We have been using spreadsheets from Google quite considerably this year. The main strength over Excel is the ability to share the data that is generated and benefit from a pooling of efforts and results. One of the most recent uses in my Year 5/Grade 4 class was during a History lesson, in which we

I really like your idea of shooting pics around your room every so often. Sometimes we need the reminders that there is learning going on in many different “corners” of our classrooms at many different times – our challenge is to keep our eyes open and praise those different areas of learning!
