4th and 5th Grade

Our 4th and 5th graders grow so much in Technology during these years! They will using Google Docs, Slides, and will even be creating Google Maps. Working in Google For Education allows us to collaborate as well as get real time feedback. The students love the collaboration aspect as they work on projects together. They also can take on more learning so they are introduced to Google Sheets and through Google's CS First program, they are introduced to Scratch coding. They will notice how much more they will use their Chromebooks with their classroom teachers and many of our projects will be collaboration efforts combining curriculum with Technology. They learn how to integrate tech tools into projects in the classroom. A couple of the favorite activities takes place in Google Sheets. We learn conditional formatting through creating Pixel Art and a digital version of Battleship! Though creating their own games in Scratch might be their absolute favorite!
