The technology lab is also a place where you will find students and teachers alike coming and going all the time. Students come to take STAR and AR tests. Teachers come to do their planning and research. Inservices are held in our lab, too. Our fifth graders produce the morning news on close circuit TV from the school production room.
Guests appear on our show from time to time.
Students from all grade levels come and share stories they have written, give book talks or tell about classroom happenings. The daily news consists of the weather, the lunch menu birthdays and more. During Open Computer Time students from any grade level can come to work on projects, take AR test, do research or center activities. It's pen pal time. The students and Mrs. Gathman, technology teacher, are excited about publishing their final pen pal letters before summer vacation.
