 * * Students were engaged, enjoyed the lesson , and the time on laptops. ||
 * * Ms Coppage was able to introduce a tool to my students that they found both engaging and educational. The students quickly grasped the concept of using the settings and characters provided as inspiration to then step into the story writing process. Also, the site we were introduced to lends itself easily to projects we can use as a class to explore narrative structure and give a new outlet for expression and understanding. ||
 * * The students were able to share what they learned about light from using the gizmos. Their sharing demonstrated a great deal of comprehension from the lessons. I was very proud of them and they were extremely proud of themselves. ||
 * * The students were very excited to experience science via the computer/web. They gained an understanding of the topic through manipulating the icons representing the process of forming energy. The class also improved their computer skills via Mrs. Coppage's class instruction. This was also a wonderful opportunity to learn more about web sites to incorporate into my lessons. We look forward to additional opportunities to welcome Mrs. Coppage and her expertise into our classroom.
 * * Would like to see it used as more of a resource several times a month / all year rather than the 2 week blocks- ||
 * * My students were very interested in the technology program. I would really like to have Ms. Coppage come back closer to the end of the year after the students have ahad a chance to improve their reading skills. I think the very low reading levels in my class impeded the progress of students who truly wanted to achieve more computer skills. Ms. Coppage's lessons were very engaging and directly related to the curriculum. ||
 * * The students would like to do it again. ||
 * * My students really enjoyed the time they had with Ms. Coppage. We look forward to having her with us again...hopefully in the very near future. ||
 * * The Kapoof integration was very enjpoyable for the students. ||
 * * My students LOVED working with Ms. Coppage and I learned a great deal as well! ||
 * * The class and I really enjoyed the technology piece that Ms. Coppage brought into our classroom. We now use some of the search engines and programs she introduced into the class. Cant wait to have her come back :) ||
 * * My students really enjoyed having Ms. Coppage introduce new technology. We are still able to use terms and techniques that she taught. In fact, I have students asking about her return daily. I also gained important knowledge from her presents in my classroom. We can't wait to have her return for more technology learning fun! ||
 * * I was happy to have Ms. Coppage come into our classroom for technology training. However, with scheduling between the other STAR class, resources, lunch, etc., I feel we were unable to get the most out of her services. Thank you for allowing her to come into our classroom. ||
 * * <span style="color: #000080; font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif;">Ms. Coppage was Wonderful! I was looking for that "something" to get my students enthused about writing- and she did it with the Kerpoof presentation and website! My children and I loved having her with us! The kids continue to ask me when she will be back! ||
