 * K-5 Technology TEKS Day by Day**

www.tisd.org]] - curriculum and instruction section>technology housed there Temple ISD •Really good structured way to get TEKS taught at campus level- BUT they use a lab to do it. (//So, could each elementary campus dedicate one COW to this so it could be done? They all have at least one COW, don’t they?)// •Teachers say, “That’s just one more thing I have to do. It’s not a tested thing so……” •Online programs helped but not enough access to have it work •Took online lessons and combined with existing curriculum •Teachers have a day by day lesson plan – take to a computer lab •Spiraling curriculum (hits all areas each year); exit test for 5th grade •Office 2007 being used to revise – some are finished •Challenge – Internet safety age appropriate curriculum included •Contact her about exit test if interested in seeing it. •Have labs in each campus to be used; one computer in classroom for students to use •Have a lab assistant in lab; teachers are required to teach the apps themselves, not the lab person •**Typing Pal** (has more than one lesson on home row) and learning.com for keyboarding lessons. Also uses Kid Pix 4, School Fusion, eduphoria, SRA TechKnowledge, Powerpoint, Word, Internet Explorer, Excel •Lessons put in eduphoria, using School Fusion for collaboration •Go to lab two times/week - 56 daily lessons/grade •projects reinforce core area TEKS •Lessons available from the campus websites- •Uses NetSmartz for kids- •Need a good system to teach about social networking – BrainPop has some activities that are good that are free. Some cost. Might want to check into this. Some campuses have counselors or librarians to teach this. CyberSmart good for 6-8. •Directed searches for kids – does this for K-2 so that they can read them as well as finding appropriate content. Temple has done this for the teachers so they can keep things good for the students. •Also has done stuff on copyright. •Nancy Atwell – copyright good book for teaching •Research not being taught well at elementary level - provide online subscriptions to good things for kids – K-12 databases, ProQuest, teach kids where to go to get creditable resources
