Telecommunications and 7 year olds

I am really struggling coming up with a lesson to use telecommunications with my 2nd graders. Very difficult figuring out a way to use telecommunications as the learning tool for such young students. I am kind of not really sold on telecommunications being at all effective with any elementary aged students. I guess time will tell.

Well a week after my lesson and it went very well. Eight year olds needed much assistance with the website as they have little experience with websites, but they were able to come up with accurate lists and made some choices for a new infielder for the Nationals. I enjoyed the interaction the kids had with the site and their enthusiasm with the end result.

Lesson 1

Well, I did my Washington Nationals lesson last week. It went pretty well. The kids could not believe I knew someone that worked with the Nationals. They had so many questions. I felt terrible stretching my tall tale with them. The lesson went great. We did not finish it as it extends over a few days, but the kids were so pumped and excited to get to work on it. I am anxious to see how they respond over the next couple of days with the lesson. I am waiting for the parents to start asking me to get autographs for them.
