Grades 5 through 8 are using Microsoft Access to create a database.
Grades K and 3 are learning about multi-media. We are using Microsoft's PhotoStory application.
Grade 4 continues to learn about word processing. They are using Documents in Google Docs.
PreK-04 continues to learn using www.starfall.com and www.abcya.com, using the Kindergarten learning activities! They use the "peace sign" and "we're #1", for the keyboard command to get to the login screen and to the logoff screen!
===========================================================
Ask your child about Netsmartz and go to the "Parents & Guardians" part of
