Technology Curriculum


Students in grades 1 through 5 work toward mastery of age-appropriate technology skills through using technology in their everyday classroom instruction with their classroom teacher and through 30 minutes of formal technology time weekly. Their "Technology Time" work is closely tied to classroom curriculum and projects. Within the classroom, the use of technology is embedded in many projects and units in which technology enhances and enriches the learning experience, and is used to supplement delivery of instruction.

  • Be comfortable with using computer and mouse; be familiar with parts of a computer;
