The X.O laptop is very cool. You can play games, listen to music, write, color. The X.O laptop is for kids in need that don't have power in their houses, or for kids that don't go to school. It is very fun. But there is one thing that is the keys are rubber, and they are tiny. My fingers can almost can fit, but it's hard. Now we have two. The first one was yellow and the second one was blue. I think the blue is cooler.

The xo laptop is cool. It is green and white and it has tiny keys and it is smaller than a regular laptop and it has games, music, and Internet on it.
P.S. I want one!

What I Did on the XO Laptop
The Xo Laptop was cool!
The first thing I did on it was look at the internet. It was pretty hard to figure out where all the places were but I got used to it. The one game that I played was memories.
The way you play is that there are cards one side has cards with ones on them and another side with twos on them and the one cards have math problems on them and the two cards have the answers on them and they are turned over so you can’t see them. To flip them over you need to click on them and try to get the right answer.

My classroom has a cool new laptop. It is called the “xo”. I don’t know why. I used it a couple days ago. It can do lots of really great stuff. It can take pictures and movies, and it can go to Roomtwelve.com. It can do lots of other stuff too. It has a really cool paint website. I painted a lot on it.
The xo laptop is great.

The xo was fun and there was drawing, painting, and games and more. It was a great
experience for me. It was kind of hard to explain it in some ways but as I said it was a great experience for me.
The bad thing is that if you go to Microsoft Word and try to save you can not save.

Our teacher (Mr. Ahlness) brought a new laptop to our class. It could take pictures and video tape too. Also it can not break if it falls. It is the color green. I think it is the coolest laptop in the
WORLD!

The xo laptop is really cool. I like it because it has a camera that can take pictures and can make movies and has a keyboard that whenever you spill something on it it won't go through.

I think the XO laptop is cool because when you drop the laptop it won’t break. Also because the buttons on the laptop are really soft and comfortable and because I don’t have to look at a big screen.

Right now I'm on the Xo laptop. It's really cool. It is made of rubber and if you drop the laptop it won't break or if you spill something on the laptop it won't break. It is awesome.
P.S. You should get one in your class.

ON THE XO
When I was on the xo I had lots of fun. There were games, painting, drawing and much more. I also wrote an article about using the xo.
DOING THINGS
I did a drawing thing on the xo and it was so much fun. I like to use the xo and I wish that I had my own.

We have a new xo laptop in our classroom, playing on the xo laptop is f.u.n. The best part is it has a video camera you can tape movies but only for 15-25 seconds. It is f.u.n.

Room Twelve has a new mini computer! MINI!? Here in room twelve, we got a XO laptop. The students in room twelve have been taking turns on the XO.
I like the XO. It’s fun, it’s cool, it’s small, it’s easy to carry.
I think other kids would like it too. They will find new things to do on the XO. They will play new games. Discover new things on the XO laptop, although it’s the slowest one.

What I think about the Xo is that it is very cool and you can do a lot of things with it. Also what I like about the xo is it can do what things that other ones can't do. It is also fun to play with. So next time you see a xo think about it.

The Xo laptop was fun and cool and you could take a picture and play games and make videos of yourself and you could go to your blog and you could drop it and it won’t break and you could write on it but it won’t save and you could use your Flash Drive to save your writing.

My Time on the Xo
February 1, 2008
What I did on the Xo was write a story because I wanted to try something different on it because I’ve always recorded a video on it. My favorite thing to do on it is to make videos with friends or by yourself. I want to do my best and do very educated or educational things at school and show that I want to go to college and graduate and become a basketball player in the NBA. Even though you can’t have girls on the NBA I just forgot what you call a professional girls basketball team. My mom and dad want us all to become a basketball champions but still do what what’s good for us and make the right choices.

The XO is a laptop for kids in need, such as kids who live with no electricity. I have been on the XO in room 12. In fact my whole class has. There are lots of things to do on there. Such as making videos, doing art, making music, playing games. I would buy one if I could afford it. It’s really FUN!
