Computers
At St Paulus we are passionate about STEM education! We integrate technology, Science and Mathematics into our teaching and learning in a meaningful manner.
Our aim is to ensure that all of our children are able to navigate our digital world. From Grade R – 3 we concentrate on integrating language and mathematical concepts into virtual interactive lessons. We also cover basic coding, employing the use of ‘coding mice-bots’ and coding apps such as Scratch.
In addition to covering the basics of MS Word, Excel and PowerPoint, the Coding4Kids curriculum is implement in Grade 4 – 7.
Coding4Kids is a complete coding, robotics, and IT curriculum designed to develop problem-solving and logical-thinking skills, using real-world tools and content.
The curriculum includes introductions to HTML and CSS, JavaScript, Robotics and Information Technology.
We also address the dangers associated with the use of social media, cyber-bullying, and the importance of ensuring a healthy digital footprint.
