What is happening in the Computer Lab?
Lots and lots of learning, of course! Especially with our Apple Lab, every class will be learning applications such as Microsoft Office Word and Excel, GarageBand and IMovie. There is so much to discover together! As we continue to use Google Classroom remotely, we will practice our skills using Google Docs, Slides and Sheets.
Our students experience a fun learning environment where they concentrate on certain areas. Their learning is not limited to only these areas. Our students are given many opportunities to actively learn in an engaging manner. Technology is integrated into all subjects and reinforced by visiting learning websites to support the learning that is happening in their classrooms.
