My name is Brittany Washburn and I’m an educator obsessed with ed tech.

This curriculum was created over 3 school years when I had nothing for materials for my technology specials. I was spending my nights and weekends scouring Pinterest and Google for ideas because I knew my students deserved engaging lessons even if I had to do everything from scratch.

I found myself exhausted and frustrated and just knew there had to be an easier way. That is when I discovered the magic of having my own class website and screencasting my instructions. I created a modified-flipped-classroom before I even knew that was a thing. Students were working at their own pace and they stopped asking me to repeat instructions. I felt like I had struck gold!

I tested and perfected the activities with them and now I’ve made them available to you!

Each lesson or project includes:

Lesson plan and rationale pages for the teacher (like the teacher manual but better).

Printable and editable lesson planning pages and rationale pages where I explain the how and why for each lesson or unit.

Grade level binder covers
Unit separators
Rationale pages
Lesson plan pages

The lesson plan pages come in a PowerPoint file that will easily open in Google Slides if you upload it to your drive. It is fully editable in case you need to make modifications, or you can just print the whole file and hand write your notes.

A web page with linked prompts, directions, and activities (like a workbook but digital).

There are several sample lessons you can look at to see how it all works:

How does student access work?

With your purchase you get one class account that all students use to access the lesson pages. Think of this website like a textbook but digital. The username and password’s purpose is to give students access to the textbook. Then from there you (the teacher) still facilitate student progress by letting them know which lesson page to go to and you’ll still collect their finished assignments for assessment.

What platform will the students be using?

The curriculum is housed on this website. Students log in to this website to access the lesson pages.

The lesson plans are provided in PowerPoint for the teacher (and administrators) to guide you through the curriculum.

Visit it ahead of time at k5technologycurriculum.com/homepage to get an idea how it works. You can find several free pages on the Samples dropdown menu. If/when you purchase access, you will create a class username and password to access all of the grade level pages.

No student data is ever collected on this website.

Do these include Google Apps or MS Office?

Both! Starting in 1st grade there are lessons to teach excel/sheets, word/docs, and PPT/slides. Your students will need access for either MS Office programs or Google accounts.

Can I attach the lessons to Google Classroom?

Some teacher will choose to use Google Classroom as a way to collect student assignments in order to grade them, but there isn’t a way to automatically assign one of my lessons in GC.

Can students do the lessons from an iPad?

While it is possible, I don’t recommend it. The whole first quarter of lessons for Kindergarten are on mouse skills and navigating a computer. Completing these lessons on an iPad wouldn’t accomplish the same set of standards.

Do I have to buy all of the grade levels or can I just buy the one(s) I need?

Individual grade levels can be purchased and if you decide you need more, it is easy to add additional grade levels at any time. The only way to subscribe month by month is to purchase the K-5 bundle. The individual grade levels are all 365 day subscriptions.

I’m looking for an in-depth preview. Can you help with that?

Let’s make sure this will be good fit for your students. Click here and use the code TRYK5TECH1 at checkout to get the first 30 days for just $1! After that it is $12 per month or you can switch to the yearly subscription to get 3 months free.

How many Licenses do I need to purchase?

One license per school building. This curriculum was made with a technology teacher in mind, but some schools have their classroom teachers implement the lessons. The whole school can share the class account.

If you’re a tech teacher at multiple schools and have fewer than 30 total classes, you may use the license at more than one school building.

If you have questions about licensing, please email me before purchasing. If we find that your IP address is using an unusually high amount of server resources we may ask you to purchase an additional license.
