Digital Literacy

Pet Spa

(Google Applications Grades: 3-5)

In the Pet Spa course, cute pets are key as students create artifacts and learn basic skills with Google Workspace applications. Using Docs, Drive, Drawings, Sheets, and Slides, students develop a vision for their own Pet Spa business. Elementary students in Grades 3-5 create artifacts and learn basic skills and terminology related to technology and introductory business ideas. Pet Spa is a fantastic introduction for students to learn transferable skills and is the perfect precursor to Yeti Academy Snowboard Shop.

Theme Parks

From logo design to site visit planning, and creating e-portfolios, Theme Parks offers hands-on learning to help develop your student’s business, school-related, and personal skills. This course features an intentional inclusion of digital citizenship topics.
