Lots happen in Computers throughout the grades
All of the classes will have lessons revolving around the current curriculum/subjects that the classes are working on.
First Grade:
There are many 1st grade programs that are educational. The Jump Start series is a good place to start. We use Kidpix ( by Borderbund) in the classroom. This program is a drawing program and a word processing program. It would be a good addition to the Jump Start series. Both programs work on Mac and PCS.
Second Grade:
By this time they should be able to move around a menu bar. Save to the correct file, open a document, open a new document. They can format text: color, size and color. They are familiar with Kidpix. They know all the tools. They will have an introduction to Internet.
Third Grade These students can open a new word processing document, format the margins and the text. In Appleworks Paint they can manipulate the tools and produce a drawing. On the Internet they can perform simple searches and copy pictures to a word document. Sometimes inappropriate pictures will inadvertently appear. They are reminded that anything inappropriate is to be covered with their hand and to move to another screen. They will be introduced to Powerpoint and will begin working on simple presentations.
Forth Grade
Here they will develop skills in report writing using Word. They will start their own Powerpoint presentations and bring in images and actions. They will do more complicated searches on the Internet.
Fifth Grade
As they are studying states they will be required to make an in depth Powerpoint presentation about a state of their choice.
Sixth Grade
They will do all of the above and more. They will be introduced to spreadsheets, newsletters and label making.
