==Tara L. Parr, Technology Integration Coordinator, K-12, of the Perkiomen Valley School District, Collegeville, PA, www.pvsd.org ==

In response to a request from another CFF coach, Tara Parr responded: "Technology, in our district, is a special area for elementary students. The students, grades 1-5, have technology for 40 minutes once every 6 days. In kindergarten, it is 30 minutes once every 6 days. The technology teachers strive to integrate with the classroom teachers as much as possible on projects." She also included documents outlining their technology curriculum in K-5th grade. She gave permission in her email for other districts to use and give their thoughts. Those documents are shown below.

K-8 Technology Curriculum (as of March 2011 it is still being revised, so this is preliminary):

Jennifer Kraft of the North Schuykill School District provided this statement and ning link: "We did not have anything real curricular to follow, but I did find a lot of help and good suggestions in the forum here: @http://elementarytechteachers.ning.com/. One teacher had a pacing guide that I plan on sort of using next year (changing to fit my needs) and there is a series from K-5 by Structured Learning that you can buy on Amazon."

**Suggestions for Technology Courses**
>
 * 1) ** Technology for Everyday Living - ** a course on how students currently use it, how they should be using it, how will they use it in their future? Learn and explore web-based tools and incorporate project-based learning in real application scenarios. This is a course I am just in the infancy stages of developing. //--Dotty Noll, Eastern Lebanon School District// **(Dr. Nilsen’s district** ** J )**
 * 2) ** Multimedia Communication **
 * 3) ** Digital Literacy **
