Pre-K Technology TEKS

The Pre-K Technology TEKS provide the basics a student needs to be able to perform when they enter Kindergarten. These skills include navigating through software with visual and written cues, interacting with the mouse and keyboard, gaining information through the use of technology, uses terminology when appropriate, can insert a CD,and can utilize touch screens and voice recorders.
The Pre-K TEKS lay the foundation for student performance in future grades by giving them the basic knowledge they will need in order to operate the more advanced software in later grades.
One scaffolding that would provide multiple opportunities to master a knowledge/skill could be accomplished through the I Do, We Do, You Do method. First, the teacher would demonstrate how to master the skill. Then, the students would do it along with the teacher. Finally, the students would be expected to complete the task alone. This scaffolding could be used with any tool such as Wordle, PhotoStory, Webspiration, etc.
