Over 200 lessons and activities for grades K-5 that will make a great addition to your technology curriculum. These lesson plans and activities will save you so much time coming up with what to do during your computer lab time. Ideal for a technology teacher or grade level teachers with mandatory lab time. All you have to do is demo each activity and then collect the finished assignments!
This is a yearly subscription. You can manage your account at any time to turn off auto renewal, renew early, change payment methods, etc.
What your students will gain:
By completing the lessons, your students will learn dozens of digital tools, internet safety, research skills, mouse/keyboard, navigating websites, 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. NEW FOR 2021 – Auto Login URLs for students. Simply share the URL with students and it logs them in automatically. Great for little ones!
- 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 like to have, I recommend these additional resources:
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 (like a teacher manual)
- an editable lesson planning page (with the ISTE Standards covered, I Can Statements, materials needed, ideas for assessment, and space for reflection)
- a web page with linked prompts, directions, and activities (view the free content on the Samples dropdown menu at k5technologycurriculum.com/homepage to see how it all works)
Enough to last you the entire school year!

I started using this 5 years ago when I was moved to teach computers. Before I found Brittany’s resource, I was spending hours every weekend trying to decide on what I wanted to teach and the coming up with how to teach it. The subscription will save you so much time and bring a quality product to your students.

I have been a computer lab teacher since 2014 and had to come up with all of my own curriculum. I had a lot of sources but it was never organized and in one spot. With last year being so HARD with the Pandemic, I needed something that students could use online and in class. This subscription was a Godsend! I will be using it this year too!!!

I purchased this in anticipation of having to teach remotely last year. Fortunately we were able to maintain in-person learning, yet this was still helpful in providing me a year long outline to follow with my classes.

I have been teaching technology to students for the last 18 years. This site is such a great support for teaching technology across K-6. Everything is organised and easily accessible. It has saved me so much time in researching resources to support my lessons. The website is constantly being updated to bring current resources to my classroom. I especially appreciate all the work that has gone into transitioning the site away from flash-based activities. Thank you.
