Explain the parts of the computer

o Monitor- un dispositivo (device) de salida que muestra datos a
informacin (pieces of information) de usuario
o Teclado- un perifrico de entrada o dispositivo que sirve para
escribir y que se comunica al CPU
o Mouse- un dispositivo apuntador utilizado para facilitar el
manejo de un entorno grfico en una computadora.
o CPU- Es el principal del ordenador que interpreta las
instrucciones contenidas en los programas y procesa los datos.
Es la parte ms importante de una computadora, en su interior
se guarda informacin, se realizan operaciones y ms.
Have them draw each piece with a few words of explanation to them.
o Tercero wrote short definitions of Monitor and CPU (in
cuaderno)
Monitor/Pantalla- muestra la informacin de la
computadora
CP-U tiene todo la informacin de la computadora
o Segundo wrote just the words with the drawings (I
believe)

23-24 de Mayo- Continuar con Mouse y Teclado

3ro- copied shortened definitions for mouse and teclado:

o Teclado- sirve para escribir y se que comunica al CPU
o Mouse- lo usamos para facilitar el manejo de un entorno
grfico
2nd- Copied words and pictures

30-31 de Mayo- my retreat group- Hannah had them copy from the board

Como manejar el mouse (pg32-33 of Workbook level 2)

o Hannah had them copy from the board:
Las acciones y operaciones del mouse
o Mover

Drew their right hand and drew a mouse and circled the finger they
are supposed to use to CLIC and circled what button they normally
use to clic.

Drew the menu button for step 3

20-21 de Junio- Evaluation- how to close your program.

I re-explained how to close a program and then had them work in

was a little crazy

to draw and color with shapes in Paint.
Everyone started their pictures but it wasnt super productive and
they didnt just draw with shapes
11 de Julio- NO class, Rostro Retreat
18 de Julio- Drawing with Shapes in Paint

They copied the picture that they had to draw on the computer (a
house and a tree all made out of shapes) and created it in Paint
I drew an example in front of them so they remembered exactly what
to do
They did a great job. Almost everyone knew what to do. (I went
around and graded for an evaluation grade)

The most popular question with paint is how to make the

eraser (borrador) bigger. (CTRL + +)- you can even give this
to them as a class lesson one day
Sirve para escribir, dibujar, hacer matemticas, y puedes acceder el
internet para hacer muchas cosas ms. Lo que podemos hacer con la
mquina/
Clic: Pon tu mano en el mouse y pulsa el botn izquierda
Practice clicking things in the computer

They can maybe spend a few more classes in paint teaching the basics, but
can move on to Word whenever. (2do might want to stay in Paint for a long
whilenot sure but you can see how they are doing)

4th grade worked a lot last year in Microsoft

Word and have practiced writing their name in
different colors and sizes and fonts numerous

continue in Word for a while I think. They
need practice typing and still need to really
learn how each button works.

Whatever else you can think of or think they might need to
learn. (might be good to have projects for just 1 or 2 days that
display exactly what they learned that day).

Other Things:

Can go back to Microsoft Word after working in Power Point. They

have learned the basics and know the buttons of the keyboard,
alignment of text, how to change font and size and color. They may
have learned some of these things in the past, but could learn again:
o Could learn how to create a table
o Word Art
o Insertar Formas
o Columns
o Page horizontal / Vertical
o

Sexto A:

Did everything that Sptimo did except for

MAX and MIN functions- still need to learn and practice
them.
Good notebooks to look to for guidance on what theyve done:
Andreina Cepeda, Jenifer Julissa Cabrera

Sexto B: Did everything that Sptimo has done, just don

t understand it as well and need more practice.
Good notebooks to look to: Madelyn Mabel Arana, Priscila Palma

Sptimo:

Nmero de Hojas
o Show them excel on this computer and then have them draw it
in their cuadernos.

so that they can see how it all works
Homework: Make copies of page 36 without the lables answered and
give it to them to fill out for homework (also create a word bank)

Other Ideas:
o Excel
There are a ton more things they can learn in Excel.
Haciendo Clic 6 has many ideas as well as other
books
Using graphic tables and such (pie charts and
graphs)
o

Internet
How to write an email and any other things emails entail
Other things we use internet for
Publisher
They touched on this last year with Rachi but I didnt get
a chance to do any of it with them this past year. All
of publisher is fair game
Microsoft Power Point
They spent a solid chunk of the year last year using PP,
but some still really dont know it wellit might be very
repetitive for some but helpful for others to go back to it
(most probably forget how to use it anyway).
It would be cool if they had to create a short project for
class and had to present it (with the new projector??!!)
Microsoft Word
Maybe go over how to write a formal paper / practice
typing with all of your fingers.
I dont believe they ever learned Spell Check
