Henry P. Clough Computer Lab

Henry P. Clough Computer Lab

Welcome!

Welcome to my blog! I hope that this can be a place for interactive communication for both parents and students. It is my goal to share news about advances in technology, updates about activities in our technology classroom, as well as great websites that I may come across. I also hope however, that as parents and students you will share with me websites and/or software and hardware that you are familiar with and know that kids love!

As you come across new tech tools, please use this as a place to share! I will also be posting sites, videos, and articles I think you and your child may enjoy.

I’m looking forward to another fantastic school year and as always working as partners to advance our children in the 21st century. Remember to visit my website for further information about our computer lab at the Henry P. Clough Elementary School.

Thank you Clough PTO!

I would just like to take a moment to publicly thank our PTO at the Henry P. Clough school for their generous donation of $13,000 which was directed toward the purchase of technology for our classrooms. Such items that have been purchased were several SMARTBoards, 3 ipads, a Kindle as well as headphones to help support a website call VoiceThread which will allow classroom teachers to record a student's voice and integrate it into digitally displayed student work! This is exciting news and I am personally so grateful to work in a district with such supportive parents! We are truly heading in the right direction with technology integration which will only enhance and support the educational progress for our students!
Thank you Clough PTO!!!

Kid Pix




In grade 2 students are using a software called Kid Pix. This software is a drawing program but has the capability to add text and create a slide show. My students love this program and I often get parents that ask where it can be purchases. For those that are interested here is a link to Amazon where you can buy this program.
