Hi Bernie:
I'm of the opinion that your school would be better off using
various software apps in the process of teaching core subjects. However,
if you are dead set on teaching technology one step at a time, search
through a lot of resources for doing so through my page I posted for k-12
teachers at http://www.auburn.edu/~orrwill.

Good luck,

PS: When asked what level of HyperCard he was teaching at USA Mobile,
John Strange responded "2nd grade", because HyperCard was being taught
to the 2nd grade at the Apple School of Tomorrow in Cupertino, CA
