In the first trimester, Third grade students learn Google Sketchup, which is an application on our computer system.  I show the students how to design a 3D house   with roof, doors, windows, yard and pool.  Students learn how to add images of people, furniture, cars and other objects. 

​

Also in the first half of the year, students continue to do work on their keyboarding skills with their own account on Typing.com.   Students will be introduced to new coding websites, Tynker and Scratch to learn computer science.  They also do projects in Microsoft Word and Power Point.

 

Students use the iPads to create iMovies and Podcasts while working with a partner for collaborative learning,

 

In the second part of the year, students create projects such as a calendar in Microsoft Excel, along with other spreadsheet assignments, Microsoft Publisher, Tagxedo projects, and learn about Digital Citizenship and Cyber Safety.
