My Current Use of Technology I have adopted technology as a tool for my kids to use in every curriculum area. Computers make up one math center. We teach time throughout the year by using the date and time control panel on the computer and a shareware program called Clock Talk. Writing is a big part of how we use our computers. Daily journal entries, research projects, grammar and usage, and so on are done on the computer.
Research projects use the computer to retrieve information.
They have weekly lessons to do. Spelling is reinforced with various software and lessons developed in ClarisWorks and other programs. Class research projects culminate in slideshows and multimedia presentations developed by the students and me. Some of their multimedia presentations on Frogs, for example, were published and are now available by FTP . We participated in a writing activity on the Polar Express Web site during the Christmas season.
