St. Mark's Early Education Computer Lab is an exciting place for our three classes to visit each week. Check this page each month for suggestions of websites and skills you can work on with your little ones at home.
Three-year-old classes visit the computer lab 1-2 times each week for 30 minute classes, depending on how many days a week they are enrolled in school. The curriculum is based on hand-eye coordination with regard to manipulating the mouse and navigating through preschool appropriate software. Students are also introduced to all of the computer system components. You will soon find your child coming home saying different rhymes or using hand motions to remember things like "C-P-U!"
1st Semester Basic Goals
· Learning about the 5 basic parts of a
computer station: mouse, monitor,
keyboard, CPU and the printer.
· Learning & mastering basic left clicking
on the mouse.
· Reinforcing classroom developmental
goals & concepts.
Ideas For Working At Home
· 10 minutes of supervised computer time at
home, several times per week is a great
guideline for a 3-4 year old child.
