Technology

The elementary grade students are first introduced to the uses and care of computers. Rules for the lab are established with the students. The main objective for grades one through six is to teach practical use and applications of technology. Elementary students 6 learn to use Microsoft Office programs. They

begin with Word and work their way through Publisher, Power Point and Excel. They learn to produce documents in each application, learning all the tricks of the trade. Publications are often related to class work or are the direct culmination of an assigned project. They learn to use the overhead projector, digital camera, scanner and LCD projector. Students become quite proficient in the use and application of technology in the classroom.

Children in Pre-kindergarten and kindergarten are introduced to the computer as another tool of education. Specific educational games are planned for computer sessions. Children are taught basic skills that help them to maneuver around the games. They learn to follow directions for starting, playing and ending a game session. They are taught the importance of caring properly for the computers in the lab and learn as well, the rules of the lab.

Thank you for giving me the opportunity to teach your children.
