An assistant or teacher be in the
lab for half the time with the K classes.

If Amy is introducing a new
concept, it would not be unreasonable to ask the teacher or assistant to come and watch,
learn and assist for all levels. Many of the projects can continue to be worked on in the
classroom. This would help the
teacher/assistant to help with projects and meet the guidelines of implementing technology
into the classroom studies.
