One last thing: There are plenty of educational sites listed in the student's home page. Make sure you check out those sites so you can use them in your classroom or in the lab. There's a little bit of everything for everyone!
Also, if you need a quick project idea, check out the books below. They cover grades k-5, and teach students how to use Microsoft Word, Excel, Powerpoint,Publisher, Kidpix, Kidspiration, Inspiration, etc, all while teaching them the basics of computing. Very Helpful. They are in the lab.
