The internet and email has changed the way we communicate allowing us
almost instant communication with people around the world.
What do you know about emails?
All of the children have heard the word, here is their understanding . . .
"You press a number on the phone or computer, you text." - Esme
"There's a screen to look at. Computers are good for typing, you can send
a message to people who are too far." - Oliver
"It's about computers." - Sophie
"I don't know. It's about messages." - Tyreese
Everyone was eager to see what an email looked like and how it was done so we decided to send an email to their parents. I wrote their message and they typed their name and hit 'send'
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
It was gone! Arriving instantly in their parent's inbox.
Some of the parents replied and their messages read to their child.
I did this once in grouptime too. Comparing snail mail to email. I'm sure the parents were thrilled to receive emails from their children.
