Welcome to the Computer Lab!
Our lab is equiped with Apple G-5 imac computers.  There is a one to one student / computer ratio. 
Kindergarten and First Grade students receive one half hour of instruction each week.  An additional half hour per week in the lab is reserved for classroom enrichment.

First Grade Students work on a slide show project
each year. The main character in each slide show is a traveling cow.  This project incorporates a variety of skills and techniques. and is very entertaining.
Learning the difference between left and right can be quite challenging when you are 5, 6 and 7 years old. By learning  to move a turtle through a maze, left and right turns become a simple, fun task.

We have our own television show at Badger Clark. Each week we host our informative program with two first grade anchors or two kindergarten anchors. Each broadcast is taped and put on the BCTV webpage.
