Hurry up and wait
I am eager for us to begin using our computers in class. The only drawback is
that there are no computers yet. Hmmmm. Good thing I haven't taken hours upon hours upon hours trying to develop lessons and activities for us. I have connected with someone from ?? Germany to work with designing a wiki. I also would like for us to be a part of the Blogging Challenge being offered by EduBlogger but it is kind of difficult to do with no COMPUTERS.
