Technology

We prepare our students to use technology as a tool by integrating our computer program into all subject areas. Along with technology evolving, so does the curriculum for our technology classes at Forest Ridge Academy. Every year builds upon the previous skills and education. Students explore, create, problem solve, and analyze information using a wide range of technologies. Students in junior kindergarten and kindergarten:

• Design 3D objects, which are then printed on our 3D printers
• Use a variety of programs to familiarize students with the beginning level of computer coding:
  • Scratch Jr.
  • BeeBots
  • Kodable
• Create online portfolios
• Explore circuitry and conductive materials using MakeyMakey
