Reply to "Working with a Bunch of Kids at the Computer --How do you do that?"

Luanne PayneBoard Member, Editor Supporting Member!AdminBoard Member

3 or 4 kids at one computer is not a problem if:

You have a large monitor so everyone can see.
if the computer table is wide enough to accommodate 3 or 4 kids so that they "feel" like they are all at the computer.
Have a long cord on your mouse and keyboard so they can be passed to kids on the right and left or even better use a cordless mouse and keyboard.
Some software works better with just 2 or 3 kids, others with 4 or more.
You structure the kids' participation at the computer-- giving them things to do like "you will read out loud the scriptures, you're in charge of the mouse, you'll be 1st to play the game, when we turn the page those responsibility switches to the person beside you" ...it just depends on the program and what there is to do.
