Fifth Grade: Students learned to use PowerPoint for word processing. Students learned to type in a recipe and make it look professional. PowerPoint is a great resource for creating handouts, typing stories, and/or reports!



Fourth Grade: Students uploaded Limericks that they wrote for St. Patrick's Day. Students earned a free choice (monitored) Thursday!



Third Grade: Students learned to use word processing utilities such as spell checker, grammar checker, and thesaurus to edit their writing.



Second Grade: Students used Microsoft Word to type Easter Bunny stories. Students used clip art to illustrate their stories.



First Grade: Students visited http://www.scholastic.com/ to view and play I Spy games. This site has excellent activities for younger students that provide practice for higher-level thinking skills.
