As the computer lab closes for the summer...

Here are a few of our 07/08 projects and events to check out!

Our latest computer lab project for the school this year was the Consolidated eZine. Our winter eZine was created by the 5th grade at Consolidated and then the spring issue, created after school with both 4th and 5th graders that signed up for the activity! Please take a look at our eZines!!

Kennebunkport Consolidated School is working with KCT (Kennebunkport Conservation Trust) to find ways to incorporate their properties with our curriculum! On our May ERWednesday, staff from KCS visited the KCT via a trolley to many of their properities. It was just a beautiful day to have this outing and many ideas were shared! Thank you to Mr. Tom Bradbury, Executive Director, KCT Board of Trusties for enabling this to happen! Please see the slideshow of our afternoon with the KCT.

    Everyone at Consolidated School is thrilled with our iMac lab! Each year brings new experiences, as teachers work on their individual class projects with their students.

    United Streaming is also a big hit in the lab, as well as in the classroom. From Martin Luther King Jr. to the study of mammals - the United Streaming website has it all. Their videos are welcomed tie-ins with teacher's curriculum.
