 * Most of my students logged on at home to complete the assignment.
 * They seemed to enjoy the Edmodo experience at home.
 * It was time consuming reading all of my students' posts.
 * Not all of my students logged on at home to complete the assignment.
 * Time was a big factor for me with the assignment. Feeling a little overwhelmed with all that I need to teach, Fall DRA's, and etc. It is the time of year where we are still building class routines.
 * I feel it will get better now that certain beginning of the year activities are complete. ||
