When will classes get to visit the computer lab?

All classes have a daily time they can visit the computer lab.  
We are lucky that our school is so small, because this allows a 
daily visit.  Teachers may bring classes to the lab to work on 
technology skills, intervention and enrichment websites, 
Waterford, or for research purposes.

efficiently and safely use a personal computer.

What Do the Students Learn During Computer Skills?

Mrs. Willard uses the North Carolina Standard Course of Study as 
a basis for her computer skills lessons.  Each grade has a set of 
Computer/Technology  Skills goals and objectives that we focus on 
to help them learn how to efficiently use technology in their 
lives.  During this time each grade level works on different 
things.  In the Pre-K and Kindergarten classes we learn how to 
use the computer as a source of information and learning.  They 
visit educational websites and practice important literacy and 
math skills.  In 1st through 5th grade we use Dance Mat Typing to 
learn the keyboard, home row keys and practice our typing 
skills.  The students really enjoy this safe and practical 
website.  They are really proud of themselves when they start to 
get a hang of the typing process.
