Kindergarten Shows Off Mouse Skills

A foundational skill kindergartners work on in tech class is how to use the mouse. Students learn to hold the mouse steady, click, double click, and click and drag items across the screen. Mouse control develops hand-eye coordination and precision.  Creating their own pumpkins is one way students used this skill. 

Kindergartners created and saved their individual pumpkins using the Make a Pumpkin activity from ABCya.com. I combined their creations into a single picture using PhotoCollage.com.

Kindergarten Class Books: Silly Sally

Did you know we have some super silly kindergartners in our school? I know, what a surprise. Kindergartners show off just how silly they can be in their own versions of Silly Sally by Audrey Wood.

Through this project students took photos of each other using the iPad. Then they recorded their voices on Adobe Spark using silly made-up words that rhyme with their names. Because these books have student pictures and names, the books won't be posted online to protect student privacy. But if you want to see your student's class book, just ask me or their kindergarten teacher to watch it.
