=**Welcome to Computer Class**=

Hello, my name is __Mr. Barie__ and I am the computer teacher at Burkett Elementary School. Once a week, our students in kindergarten through fourth grade will attend computer class as part of their curriculum. They will have a hands-on experience using the computer. Each grade will participate in lessons that reinforce their classroom studies. Different degrees of word processing are taught in each grade level. In second, third and fourth grades the software Excel and PowerPoint are taught, along with keyboarding. The Internet is used for educational activities, including typing games, flash cards, letter recognition, learning to read, and for research. I am excited to have your child in my class and expect them to have a good learning experience using the computers in my lab. = =   Mr. Barie
