Digital writing camp

I have been in this camp for six years, and this is the first time they have included computers on our desks. It is definitely a different experience than all the other years, and because this is the first time we have done digital writing, it makes this group of students technically ginny pigs. The experience so far has been quit interesting and I am glad that they still keep morning writing in our notebooks. The class has definitely become much louder from the questions and the conversations, but their is less commotion from dropping pens, and the scratching sound created by pencils on paper. It is also much cleaner with no eraser dust, and accidental ink blots on the tables. It is easier to share our work with each other and spell check is amazing. We have created dopplegangers and memes filled with overflowing creativity. Nature walks are at lack now, and pens running out of ink are non existent, these are a couple things I miss.  Over all though, this weak as been a great experience.
