Re: VENT/HIT: OPAC worksheets

[Dianne <waynemck@VOL.NET>]

I didn't see your posting earlier - but I made up a worksheet for our
OPAC based on a crossword using an online Xword generator, the kids
enjoyed the worksheet because it didn't seem like a worksheet and it was
a pretty challenging worksheet - having them to research under many
categories. I will help the year  6's (11year olds) make up their own
crossword using the same generator to make their own worksheets to give
to their classmates. This activity will help them focus on key words and
questions that will enable people to find the answers - and hopefully in
the end they will have a better understanding about what we have in the
library and how the whole OPAC thing works. Gets them using the
computers and internet but addressing a real problem to work through and
having to use higher order thinking.

Just another suggestion to the many already out there.
