Note from Ms. Bonamo:

In The Computer Chair

It is very important for students to be familiar with new technologies that are available in the classroom.  Students in our classroom will use word processing programs such as Microsoft Word, create slide shows such as Power Point, and create images using a photo/image software program called Paint Shop Pro.  

In addition, students in our class will be using software provided through an HP grant.  We have an HP Tablet PC, HP color printer, Epsom projector, and many additional software applications. 

There are many online resources that will helps students as they work on projects throughout their school career.  Another goal is to learn the best ways to research topics online.  

By using a variety of technology application while students are in the elementary grades, they will be exposed to new technologies and comfortable with new applications as they move toward Middle and High School. 

My goal is to share as much technology as possible throughout our daily curriculum so that my students feel comfortable and confident exploring new technologies.
