2nd Grade Stars

These kiddos must have learned a lot in 1st grade because they're already using reading and writing resources on the computer to aid their learning!

Mrs. Kreczmer's 2nd grade class, the Kangaroos, started coming to the lab early in the year.  They used Book Flix to read fiction and nonfiction books on kangaroos.  Then, students completed a Venn diagram, while in the computer lab, to compare the information in the two books.  The students successfully logged in, navigated to the book site from our school library page, and acquired information using text.  Way to go Kangaroos!

Mrs. Kelso's Critters are another 2nd grade class that does an excellent job demonstrating appropriate behavior and computer use while in the lab.  They used a word processing program to express ideas, practiced writing spelling words, and learned how to insert clip art to enhance their piece.  Students independently formatted font style, size, and color and then saved their work.
