I always do that.   In fact, I use the LCD projector and show the kids the 
computer monitoring program that we have installed in our computer lab by 
projecting the image of all of their desktops.   When they realize that I can see 
exactly what they are doing and even lock their screens or send messages like 
"quit playing with the color of your font, we have black & white printers!!" 
they totally buy into the idea that the computer records all key strokes.   It 
doesn't, but the fact that I'm good at catching the little darlings when they 
wander into forbidden areas, helps reinforce that myth - lol.
