Pre-K had a wonderful time using their computer mouse playing in the digital sandbox.
My personal goal as the computer teacher is to provide a learning experience for the students that doesn't just fill their bucket with knowledge, but rather lights their fire to create and develop their technology skills.

Students love the new headphone/microphone units.
On the last day of my computer classes, the new headphones I order arrived. It made our last class together so much fun as they recorded their voices into the digital books they created earlier in the quarter. This was a great group of students and this class flew by too quickly.

Can You Make Your Own Dice?
My 5th/6th Advanced Tech Ed have been working hard to build their own working dice in Microsoft Excel. This took teamwork, concentration, following instructions and some help from each other. After everyone builds their working pair, we plan to talk about probability and play some games.

Celebrating Library Week in the Computer Lab . . .
Students in 5/6th Advanced Tech Ed are celebrating Library Week by creating Digital Book Editions using their i-Pads, desktops and of course, those wonderful books from the school library. File management, photo transfer, editing and formatting skills will be used to create these digital books. Students will share these books with Pre-K and Kindergarten.
