pop culture would be embracing instead of shutting it down

I remember playing it in class on an Apple II in 1983.

I am enamored with Minecraft. What a brilliant piece of software.

A2 I ask a lot of questions. Sometimes I get the names of popular games "wrong" & have Ss tell me about them.
-
-
Have the Ss teach you about what interests them.
-
I used to do that with my ELL students a lot. I pretended I didn't know words so they could "help" me.
-
In our study of the 1980s, we were able to utilize emulators on Chromebooks so that high school juniors could try Atari & NES.

I was in Minecraft & got stuck in the pond the Ss all wanted to explain how to get out. They became the Ts.
