Learning Through Technology

My students need headsets and mouse pads to learn how to use the mouse properly including drag and drop, cut and paste, and cropping. These skills help them to develop their fine motor skills in technology.

My Students

The students at our school are a very diverse group of students. They are from many different countries, ethnic backgrounds, religions and economic status. Each student learns differently at our school and is a great member of our community.

In our computer lab we prepare our students for middle school, high school and college by learning to use different software programs and the Internet.

All lessons go along with the curriculum that is being taught in their classrooms. The students come in during the day to work on projects that are being done in the classroom along with the projects and research that are being done in the computer lab.

Technology is so important in today's society and making sure our future knows how to use it is my goal!

My Project

Technology today is a key to learning! The students need to understand all the functions and uses of technology, not just in the classroom but in the world. In our computer lab, we learn how to use computers for homework, projects and research. The computer lab is also used by our English Learners, with a program that helps them grasp phonics, reading comprehension and spelling all through computer games.

Computer Lab at our school is a great opportunity for the students to develop skills that will be used for many years.

Mouse pads will help the students learn how to drag and drop, cut and paste and crop without any difficulties using the mouse. My students will use the headphones while taking the state mandated testing and for our English learners when they come in to use a software program that is developed for them to learn English through phonics, reading comprehension and spelling.

When they exit from fifth grade they are ready for the next step and prepared to do all their homework, reports and projects, all on the computer. Computer skills help in many ways today not just in business but in education, vocational and technical learning.

The students are extremely excited to come to the computer lab daily and love to share their experiences with parents, their teachers and their classmates.
