Kindergarten:  Students are working on learning about the different parts of the computer and using online programs to help them become comfortable with using each piece.  This week, students learned about using the keyboard and we were able to access a keyboarding game from ABCya to help them learn where to find letters of the alphabet on the keyboard.
