The Elementary Technology Grade 1 course starts by exploring ways to be a Christlike digital citizen, making choices that are spiritually and physically healthy. Students learn that God cares about their health and discover the importance of spending time with God. The course leads students in an exploration of laws and rules, emphasizing that the Bible is our source of truth and should be our guide to living well. Students learn about the Ten Commandments, read how Jesus solved the problem of sin, and discover the importance of spreading the gospel. Students investigate ways technology makes communicating easier and learn how to respond appropriately in unsafe situations, both on- and offline. The course exposes students, within developmentally appropriate stages, to concepts such as problem-solving and algorithms, security and privacy, copyright, and computer programming basics. Students create and share presentations using multimedia, create pictographs to represent books of the Bible, interview partners about their experiences facing challenges, and create a simple computer program. Collaboration and communication are also focused on, as integrated language arts and math practice standards are found throughout the course.
