This document outlines a technology project for grades 3-5 that incorporates all four NETS-S standards. Students will create a poster presentation on a science experiment using Photoshop to collect and analyze data. They will also research the solar system using search engines and proper citations. In groups of four, students will produce a digital story about a local charity using interviews and a skit. Finally, students will create a classroom newsletter with a self-portrait and articles about an introduction and favorite hobby.
