MOD-2- Assignment 7- Google Docs

After reading all the uses for Google Docs. I am asking myself why haven't I been using this all along.  I am definitely going to start using google docs more.  My first attempt will be to make a form for parents to fill out at the beginning of the year to help me keep in touch electronically.  I am getting rid of the Friday newsletter that no one seems to read.  I think by using google docs to create and send out updates I can keep parents in the loop better.

I am not sure how using google docs with my students will go.  I teach 2nd grade, my students are 7 & 8 years old. They still have great difficulty using the keyboard.  My students also do not have email accounts to use.   I do think we could use this in our grade level meetings when we need to write collaborative lessons and activities.
