Scope+and+Sequence

This work represent the old grade 6 class prior to September, 2009. Please do not edit here, but instead develop the new class in the Technology Literacy Class 2009-2010. New class should use Web 2.0 tools and be more project based.

Class 1

 * Getting to know activity: 3-2-1 [[file:321.doc]]. Have students fill out information card.
 * Introduction - Show PowerPoint presentation on Importance of Technology in their lives, class rules and expectations. [[file:1stdayofclassredone.ppt]]
 * Share the keyboarding benchmark for students and have all students log into Type to Learn (TTL) Pass out Speedskins, have students log into Play and Practice lesson 1 to review the Homerow. After Homerow review have students log into lesson under their name.
 * Pass out folders - Color code by class - stay in classroom.
 * Technology Literacy Standards:**

//G6-8: 1.5  Demonstrate ////keyboarding skills between 25-30 wpm with fewer than 5 errors.  (For students with disabilities, demonstrate alternate input techniques as appropriate.) G6-8: 2.5 Identify and discuss the technology proficiencies needed in the workplace, as well as ways to prepare to meet these demands. G6-8:// //2.6 // //Identify and describe the effect technological changes have had on society.// //G6-8: 2.7 Explain how technology can support communication and collaboration, personal and professional productivity, and lifelong learning.//// G6-8: 2.10 Explain the potential risks associated with the use of networked digital information (e.g., Internet, mobile phones, wireless, LANs). G6-8: 2.11 Provide examples of safe and unsafe practices for sharing personal information via e-mail and the Internet. G6-8: 2.12 Explain why computers, networks, and information need to be protected from viruses, intrusion, and vandalism. G6-8: 2.13 Explain terms associated with the safe, effective, and efficient use of telecommunications/Internet (e.g., password, firewalls, spam, security, Acceptable Use Policy).//

Class 2

 * Students continue on TTL
 * start with Play and Practice for warmup and homerow review using speedskins
 * Have students go to their lesson
 * Have students log into TTL assessment and take the 2 minute test, print out 2 copies one for student, one for teacher
 * students can take the assessment with and without speedskins then as a class reassess the need for speedskins
 * Assessment of understanding of Class rules from PowerPoint in Class 1 and introduction of CPS (Classroom Performance System) - can this be incorporated ( aligns with gr 6 benchmarks -- and we need to revisit these published benchmarks given the DOE published new standards. [[image:http://gr6.wikispaces.com/i/mime/32/application/msword.png width="32" height="32" link="http://gr6.wikispaces.com/space/showimage/Self+Assessment.doc"]][| Self Assessment.doc]
 * Students organize folders on H-drive into Grade 6 and subjects (English, Reading, Social Studies, Science and Math) //What about the students who do not have their own login name yet?// These students could be given as assignment to familarize them with the WPS Web site, Hwnow, school Web sites using temp account
 * Grade 5 or Elementary School Name -- Delete duplicate or files not needed. //What about the students who do were not in the Waltham Public Schools last year?// Continuation of alternate activity.
 * Haves students save a Word doc. on their H Drive.
 * Show various Keyboards on a PowerPoint presentation.(Qwerty) [[file:Keyboarding.ppt]]


 * Technology Literacy Standards:**

//G6-8:// //1.5 Demonstrate keyboarding skills between 25-30 wpm with fewer than 5 errors. (For students with disabilities, demonstrate alternate input techniques as appropriate.) G6-8:// //1.4 Identify and use a variety of storage media (e.g., CDs, DVDs, flash drives, school servers, and online storage spaces), and// //provide a rationale for using a certain medium for a specific purpose.// //G6-8: 2.9 Give examples of hardware and applications that enable people with disabilities to use technology.//

=**Class 3**=


 * Students continue TTL, lessons have been adjusted depending on TTL Assessment results. Have students continue through lessons, completing assessment at the end of each lesson.
 * HW assignment: Students will look up and write down the meaning of the word **FORMAT** and/or write 3 reasons that we save to our H Drive.
 * Pre-Assessment of students knowledge of Microsoft Word
 * Give students a list to type exactly as the one handed out. Assess students knowledge of formatting.

Pre- Assessment
Here is a pre-assessment to review: [| PreAssessment.doc]

Suggested assignment:
Homework/project – due one week later from assigned date. Students will write a 1 paragraph document that introduces themselves to the ITs. They can choose:
 * background information about themselves
 * what goals students have for themselves in school this year
 * what they would like to learn in technology class this year

In the document there will need to be evidence of:
 * Different font size
 * Different font style style
 * Different line spacing
 * Margins) to format, edit, and print a document

In support of this standard **G3-5: 1.23 Proofread and edit writing using appropriate resources (dictionary, spell-checker, grammar resources).** > > See http://www.doe.mass.edu/edtech/standards/itstand_draft.doc
 * Spell checker used so that there are no spelling errors.
 * To do: Develop a Performance Checklist for the student to go along with this assignment?

Another sample assignment:
Another Sample Assignment: WebQuest for Microsoft Word Commands

Skills learned:

 * insert table
 * insert picture
 * format font style, color and size
 * alignment

Another sample assignment:
Students use this .pdf (or Word) file to experiment with control + key sequences (taken from Gr. 6 Technology Test, pg. 2, not quite sure which benchmark this would fit under):


 * Technology Literacy Standards:**

//G6-8: 1.13 Select a printer and print a document with the appropriate page setup and orientation.// //G6-8: 1.6 Demonstrate use of intermediate features in word processing applications (e.g., tabs, indents, headers and footers, end notes, bullet and numbering, tables). G6-8: 1.7 Create, save, open, and import a word processing document in different file formats (e.g., RTF, HTML). G6-8: 1.5  Demonstrate keyboarding skills between 25-30 wpm with fewer than 5 errors.  (For students with disabilities, demonstrate alternate input techniques as appropriate.) //
