Kindergarten Technology

I created the curriculum for kindergarten technology in my district. I start with the basics.  In the first six weeks, the focus is on: 

  • parts of the computer (monitor, keyboard, mouse, mouse pad, headphones)
  • using the mouse (click, double click, drag)
  • logging on/ off (My last class learns to turn off the computers.)
  • exploring the keyboard
  • desktop terms
  • internet terms and safety

We go over What We Have Learned every week.
