WHAT'S HAPPENING IN THE COMPUTER LAB

The year is winding up and students have learned many new skills.  Grade 8 recently completed Commerical Videos which they wrote the script, acted in and edited the video.  It was a great project to end their time her at Mater Dolorosa School. 

Grade 7 is participating the "The Stock Market Game".  It is a weekly competition between the teams in the class to see what team is the "Biggest Winner" and "Biggest Loser".  There have have been some big gains as well as big losses.

The other classes are winding down, completing internet search worksheets and projects.

All classes in grades 3 - 8 should practice keyboarding at least three times per week for 10 minutes and/or until they can complete their assigned drill.

• Grades 3 - 8 all use the website speedtypingonline.com to practice their keyboarding skills in class for 10 minutes each session.
