Re: Kdg mouse practice?

For the first kindergarten mouse lesson, I put stickers on their hands and on the computer mouse. We also do a song where the students use hand motions of clicking their mouse with their mouse hand. You could even make up your own "This is the way we click our mouse, click our mouse, click our mouse. This is the way we click our mouse, to tell the computer what to do..." It definitely is a skill that is worth spending some time on with Kindergartners. In the software program, Kid Keys 2.0, there is a mouse chase activity. You click on mice with the computer mouse to make them go away. As the levels advance, they drop their cheese when you click on the mice, and then you have to drag the pieces of cheese to the dragon's mouth to feed him.
