Claris Challenges:
Click HERE for an explanation of the following challenge projects.
(I print this out and enlarge it on the xerox for the teachers
to post above the classroom computers)

I designed these assignments to help grade 1 to grade 5 students learn how to download projects from the Internet, modify them and save them in their own drive space. While doing the projects they will improve their mouse skills and learn about using menus; and their artistic publishing capabilities. Many literacy and numeracy skills are reinforced while the students work on these assignments. Listening to students working in groups of two per computer you will witness many problem solving techniques being discussed.
