Tech Talk at LTPS
K-3 Elementary Technology with Mrs. Miller
2014/15 School Year
September - November
Kindergarten is learning all about the computer, how to hold it; power it on, double clicking and launching the Internet. Students are starting to identify parts of the hardware and learn the keyboard.
Our first grade students are using ABCya Keyboard Zoo and Typing Rocket Junior to learn about placement of their fingers on the home row of the keyboard. They are also using word processing with ABCya Paint program where they type words and create pictures.
Second graders are investigating Google Earth which supports our Social Studies curriculum and learning about our Lawrence community.
Third grade students are blogging about Internet Safety using Mrs. Miller’s blog page and posting their thoughts about staying safe on the Internet. We are very excited to start technology lessons with all grades this school year. Third grade students can look forward to starting Robotics using Lego WeDo Construction Sets!
