TEKS

The Pre-K TEKS lay the foundation for students to learn the basic information about technology and how to use it in the everyday world. They can learn how to use different processing systems and are able to choose which ones will work best for the task at hand. They allow the students to communicate outside the school walls and allow them to learn how to create and publish in different formats. The pre-K TEKS lay the foundation for the students to learn how to do these things throughout their educational career. A spiraling curriculum means that students are exposed to information throughout a variety of ways and subjects. When they learn about one thing in a subject they are exposed to the same thing in another subject and it allows them to connect it and process the information in a new way. The students can use the computer to look up documents about the revolutionary war for history and use the same resources to look up the music inspired by the same time period. This allows students to make connections and internalize the information instead of just memorizing fact.
