Through project-based learning, students learn skills such as researching, citing sources, finding Creative Commons images, keyboarding, and Microsoft Office applications that they will use now and in the coming years. We are introduced to computer coding through the annual Hour of Code. We also try to use Web 2.0 interactive applications such as Animoto and Prezi to prepare for middle school and beyond.
