Research

During this spring break period, my daughter is doing simple worksheets every now and then to add some academic work to her schedule. One worksheet dealt with sports and asked how many hockey players are in a hockey game. She did not know and asked if she could use the computer for research. I said yes because a kid should use a computer for research and not just for games. She researched online, found the answer, and completed the worksheet. My wife and I have drastically reduced the time the kids could play games on the computer, and replacing computer games with computer research seems like a very good move.
