At DCS Montessori we recognize the importance of 21st Century Technology skill building for all students K-6. Computers are a part of our everyday life. We are committed to seeing every student thrive in a technological environment and embrace these life skills with confidence and expertise. Our technology curriculum framework encompasses both National Education Technology Standards (NETS) and District Instructional Technology. K-6 students will progress through our grade appropriate framework covering authentic content in the areas of creativity and innovation, communication and collaboration, Thinking, Problem Solving and Decision making, Digital Citizenship (Netiquette and Safety) and Technology Operations and Concepts.

Our Technology curriculum is also closely aligned with our classroom teachers to build upon the learning in the classroom. We work in unison with our classroom teachers to add the most value and relevance to student learning and understanding. Students are presented stimulating learning materials in curriculum units covering computer basics, keyboarding, technology ethics, real-world solutions, internet research, multimedia, graphs and formulas, and inside the computer. Our curriculum emphasizes the importance of authentic tasks and problem solving experiences using technology resources. We will empower your students to use the right tools for the right situation and become a skilled 21st century student.
