Infographic on the methods of communication that can be utilized through computing systems and networks.

This set of slides can be used to lead early elementary students in a conversation about how we communicate with others.

This lesson is for Networking and the Internet. The student will learn the difference between a network and the internet. They will be reminded of the importance of internet security and safety and how not everything on the internet is real. This lesson will use videos, books and hand on time to understand the how a network vs the internet works.

Students will use a familiar method of communication, writing, to understand the purpose and potential uses of an electronic method of communication- a blog. 

Students will practice communicating information to their peers with and without the use of technology.

Students will explore old and new ways to communicate information across long distances.  This lesson includes information on the Virtual Education Programs available through the National Park system.

Let your imagination run wild, while exploring the basic life needs of animals.  This fun project allows you to collaborate with other students and communicate your ideas electronically to create a fun animal reimagining. 

This is a writing prompt choice board intended to be used in a writing center or station. In my classroom we typically use one choice board per week. Students choose up to 4 items to complete for the week. I do 4 items to give students time to finish incomplete work on Fridays, to work on final drafts, to edit a selected item, or to share their writing with peers. You can make the rules for your classroom to best suit your teaching style and your student's needs.

The choice board includes 8 prompts and one Student Choice square based on Networking and the Internet standards for first grade.

Please feel free to make a copy of the choice board and edit it to meet your specifications.
