7 days at Shukrani - Monday

Monday:

Two computer classes in the morning - one of 21 students and one of 7. I am teaching QuickBooks Premier, but there are only ten computers that can run it. Generally there is good co-operation and sharing. A couple of new instructions, and then time for practice at data entry.

As well as teaching the accounts program, Internet and email are part of this unit. Only 4 of 27 students said they had sent an email. Our children agreed to respond to emails from the students, so we are working on them sending and receiving at least one email. The plan is to have them send a thank you to the response, and attach a photo. In the afternoon I took low-resolution photos of each of the students (during one of Beth's classes) in preparation. A couple of students sent emails after classes were over.

It is a slow process, and each email is taking at least 30 minutes, much of it in typing. We are learning a lot about the students as we work with them one on one in this process.
