Life in the Tech Lab

Welcome!

Looking for ideas?

If you are searching for ideas to use technology in either the school Technology Lab or the elementary classroom, look no further! This site is my way to share some of the ideas I've worked with over the years, especially my three years as a Technology teacher for grades K-6.

Five Week STEM Unit

Students go on a five week "Mission to Mars" where they use Lego WeDo kits to solve a variety of STEM problems.

Program a Biome in Scratch

Scratch is a powerful programming environment for kids. We use it to create animated biomes.

The Shopping Game

Part of the Counting Money series, thisis a proven hit. Kids LOVE it!

Radio Show Podcasts

Use Reader's Theater scripts to create Old Time Radio Show podcasts.

Teachers Too!

Teachers aren't forgotten! Look for materials from my teacher workshops under the FOR TEACHERS tab!

Site Upgrade Underway

So you like this new look? I have begun the work of updating this site to look cleaner, make it easier to read, and work much better on mobile devices. Do you like what you see? I'm open to suggestions; email me with ideas!

As I work on the site, you'll go back to the old style pages. Don't worry, all the links will continue to work just fine! You'll be able to follow my progress! Look for an updated Intro to Spreadsheets site soon!
