technology in the
elementary classroom
As with any learning tool, technology should be used alongside a variety of
learning experiences. hFp://flic.kr/p/qJCrZ
Adults should consistently model the use of technology in everyday
life for children.
Interac6ve educa6onal games can provide immediate feedback and
encouragement to children.
Apps can provide nonlinguis6c representa6on for learning using a combina6on of audio, video and
interac6vity.
Learning is a layered process
Technology • Computers • Digital Cameras • iPads & iPods
Manipula0ves • Curricular tools & objects that further explain a concept
Books • Other wriFen informa6on about concepts
