The Pre-K Technology Applications TEKS give students the foundation they need for student performance in future grades. Students will understand and learn how to use the mouse, keyboard, and touch screens. They will also use applications such as software that uses audio,video, and graphics to listen to storybooks. In addition, they will learn the very basic units of a computer and some of its terminology.
A spiraling curriculum is one where the basic needs are learned and a foundation is set for future classes. These classes build upon each other so that the student can achieve greater and more advanced learning. The Pre-K Technology Applications TEKS do just that. They give pre-k students pre-requisite skills to meet the challenges of kindergarten. Kindergarten will give skills to students that they will need in first grade and so on.
Students can master a series of TEKS because they have multiple opportunities to do so. For example, A child uses a program for storytelling. The student will next learn how to use the mouse to open that same program. This is followed by the student learning to open a different program that allows the student to draw with the mouse. The learners ability of using a mouse is being perfected and getting more challenging in order to master this skill.
