Computers in the First Grade

 
 
 

  In our classroom at Sale, we are very fortunate to have 4 networked multimedia Gateway computers with internet connection.  Our students have access to a volume of educational software. Some of our favorites are: 
  • Mental Math
  • Exploring Math Concepts
  • Nature of Science
  • Reader Rabbit
  • Jump Start (1st Grade)
  • Money, Time and Measurement
  • Pattern Blocks
  • Classworks Gold
  • Writing Blaster
  • HyperStudio
Students rotate through the computer center daily to work on assigned activities which enhance the skills being taught. In addition, students are encouraged to compose, edit and publish stories using the word processing programs. 

  Technology opens the door of our classroom to the world. One of my former classes did a Hyperstudio presentation on "Our Solar System" that was written up in the national magazine, PC Teach It.  The students in our district have the technology available to use their creativity in fun and educational ways.
