Welcome to Computer Class!
Hello dear 1st grade students! I am so excited to welcome you to our computer class. This year, we will have so much fun exploring technology, playing educational games, and learning in simple and exciting ways. We will also discover robots and see how they can move, light up, and even follow our instructions. Plus, we will enjoy creative STEAM projects where we use Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math to imagine, build, and explore. Get ready to tap, and learn while having lots of fun together!
First grade students will use ABCya Paint to draw some of the most beautiful places of our country. This activity encourages them to explore national pride, express their creativity, and practice their artistic skills while learning about the wonders of their homeland.
This week in Computer class, 1st graders will learn how to log in and log out of their Chromebooks safely. We will explore the Google apps grid to discover the different tools available, and practice using Google Drive to save and organize our work. Get ready to become more independent and responsible digital learners!
This week in Computer class, 1st graders will continue learning how to use the Chromebook. Students will practice basic skills such as opening and closing apps, using the touchpad, and typing simple words. They will also learn about their school email, username, and password, and understand why these are important for logging in and keeping their accounts safe.
This week, each group will take the maps they created last week and bring them to life with coding! Students will program Kubo to follow their own maps and visit the different places they designed. Through this activity, we will practice sequencing, directions, and problem-solving while making sure Kubo explores every spot on the journey.
Welcome to our first-grade robotics project! 🤖 This quarter, students will be exploring the exciting world of coding and robotics using the Go Kubo robot. They'll learn fundamental concepts of simple coding and robot movements in a fun, hands-on way. We'll be problem-solving, collaborating, and bringing our robots to life!.
It’s going to be an amazing start to our learning adventure in Computer Class!
