Good Afternoon 3rd Graders,

Today we will do a little exploring of our computers, talk about a couple of class rules, and get you started with Master Key.
It should be a fun class.

Good Morning,

Today we will be taking a little trip to outer space. While we’re there we will make sure to take a few notes. And I’ll show you where to keep those notes so you can accesses them from any computer at school.

Good Morning,

Today we will start with Master Key.
Master Key is a program to help you learn to type.
I’ve updated the files, so you should find your account under this year’s teacher name.

Once we all know we have an account, I will review my expectations during our typing time.

In the second half of class we’ll be exploring and getting to know the computers.

Welcome Back!!!
I hope your summer was fabulous. Did you go swimming? Take hikes? See any good movies?

Well if you didn’t see any good movies, maybe we should make one.
If your new to Lewis you will soon find out that technology class is pretty fun.

But before you begin you must learn the 7 rules of the computer lab.

1. Walk
2. Leave food and drink outside.
3. Take care of your computer.
4. Only work on your work.
5. Explore, but don’t change.
6. Logout
7. Leave your computer in good shape.

Oh, and remember to carefully read the student blog each day!
