Kindergarten classes will use the PBS web site

http://pbskids.org/clifford/games/beach.html

This site allows the students to practice using their mouse to click on objects and to use the mouse to click and drag items.
If the students master using their mouse to click and to drag, they will be able to explore other games on the site.

The students will receive a "Welcome Card" from me.
