Idaho Falls School District #91
Technology Scope and Sequence by Grade Level
Mission Statement: Technology should be integrated into all curriculum areas, not taught as a separate subject. Technology is a tool to promote and extend learning on a daily basis.
Curriculum integration requires three main goals:
· Teachers and students will use effective and innovative technology practices to enhance the State and Idaho Falls School District #91 adopted curriculum.
· Teachers and students will have equitable access to technology to improve teaching, learning and communication.
· Teachers will have ongoing in-service training.
