What your students will gain:

By completing the lessons, your students will learn dozens of digital tools, internet safety, research skills, and create original works nearly every week.

What you need in order to use these lesson plans:

• Students will need to log in with the class account username and password every time. You can make the credentials very easy.
• Laptops or desktops are ideal (PC or Chromebooks). I do not recommend buying this if you only have tablets as the lessons can’t deliver the same standards mastery without a mouse/trackpad and keyboard.
• The file for the editable lesson plans and rationale pages (teacher manual) is in PowerPoint. You can upload it into your Google Drive to open it in Slides if needed. Everything will transfer.
• There are a handful of YouTube videos to supplement the lessons. If you don’t have access to YouTube you can accomplish the same objective by doing a demonstration yourself.
• Student instructional videos are embedded into the site via my Vimeo account. You may need to ask your school or district to whitelist Vimeo.
• Access to either Google Apps or Microsoft Software programs for students.
• Up to date web browser. All lessons have been tested in Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and Safari.

– Depending on how much support you need, I recommend these additional resources:

• Add on Pack
• Assessment Bundle
• Tech Teacher Planner
• Tech Exit Tickets

These are all optional. I recommend them for someone who likes a lot of extras or has classes longer than 45 minutes at a time.

Each lesson or project includes:

• a rationale page
• an editable lesson planning page
• a web page with linked prompts, directions, and activities (view the free content on the Home dropdown menu at k5technologycurriculum.com/homepage to see how it all works)

Enough to last you the entire school year!

INFORMATION ABOUT LICENSES

Although most of my resources for sale are meant for one classroom use only, this one has licensing options for school use:

1-5 Users: Purchase one license – Users defined below
6-10 Users: Purchase ONE additional license
11-15 Users: Purchase TWO additional licenses
16-20 Users: Purchase THREE additional licenses

In these instances, “users” means how many “classes of students” these will be used with. If you’re a computer lab teacher and you have four 5th grade classes (for example), the 1-5 users license is perfect for you. If your school has seven 5th grade classes and you’re all going to use these lessons, purchase one license and one additional license. Add up the number of classes you want to use this with. If you have up to 30 classes then that requires one license. If you have more than 30 classes then put a quantity of 2 in your cart.

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.
