Elementary

The Elementary Digital Literacy Curriculum consists of five lessons designed to be completed in the first few days of school.

Be sure to make a copy of each lesson for your own personal use.

It uses "kid-friendly" language to connect online learning and classroom instruction.

This provides information on parts of a Chromebook, using Chromebooks appropriately, and caring for Chromebooks. This should be done when handing out the Chromebook.
Have students do the lesson with you as you are presenting the slideshow - there are embedded opportunities for practice and student interaction.
Students should use their own Chromebooks and the lesson should be assigned in Google Classroom (you may want to use the “join Google Classroom” slides from Lesson 2).
Consider using this lesson back-to-back with Lesson 2 - there is some overlap.

This lesson teaches students how to join and use Google Classroom.
Students will practice logging on, using the stream, finding classwork, finding and submitting assignments, viewing work, using the “to do” list, and making comments.
The format is a scavenger hunt where students will practice the skills after modeling.
This lesson will need to be edited by the teacher to reflect your own Google Classroom.

Consider using this lesson back-to-back with Lesson 1 - there is some overlap.

This lesson teaches students how to log onto enVision 2.0 from Google Classroom or Powerschool.
